Fighting back
I'm back to blog
again and I haven't got a clue what to talk about. I could, I
suppose, let you know all about my newest WIP, only there isn't one
and hasn't been for months You see apart from
200 word teases and 100 word flashes I have been unable to string
anything remotely coherent together, not because of writer's block,
because of something far worse.
.
Yes it's true the J S Morbius you all love has been a
sufferer for over thirty years, ever since I was first diagnosed as a
teenager and I have had enough.
I want to write for
you, not for fame and fortune (although that would be nice LOL) but
because ever since I was first spotted by Penny Peterssen, and then
taken on by Naughty Nights Press, writing has been the one escape
from my fight and I thought I had completely lost the ability to
construct fiction which people would read, like and enjoy.
However just this
week I was informed by Mistress Gina Kincade, owner of Naughty Nights
Press, that not only were my books selling they were selling so well
I was the number one author for NNP for the whole of the last
quarter, as well as each individual month in it.
Now to say I was
amazed, astounded, gob-smacked, shocked or any other feeling you'd
care to mention would be an understatement but, after also talking
with Gina, I knew that with my writing, my friends, my fans and my
followers I could beat this demon inside of me.
So from this day
forward I am determined to no longer let my depression beat me down,
even though I know it is going to be the hardest fight I've ever had,
and I am going to get back to doing what I do best, and that is
turning up the heat.
Wow,
ReplyDeleteI think that was the best post I have read in a long while.
As you know I have always considered you to be an excellent weaver of words (even though YOU didn't believe it) but to openly discuss that cursed ailment that I know has plagued you to the extreme at time is definitely worth a thousand kudos.
Julez, may your personal fight be a worthy one and see you come out on top and an inspiration for us all who suffer that dreaded "D" word.
I am overjoyed with you being NNP's top seller for the quarter and each month. It shows that you have what it takes and your reader base thinks so too.
Keep those words flowing sweetheart.
Love ya.

DeleteLove ya as well, Penny and thank you xxx
I wish all the best and continued success Julez. I fight the same fight and I hope this buoy floats you for a while!
