Romancing with Rose

Romance Down Under

Shame on me!

I know what I promised and I haven’t given up hope quite yet, I just can’t seem to find my muse. Has anyone seen her? She’s about 6ft, Russian, built like a German tank and goes by the name Bertha?

I think she bailed on me when I stopped listening but in my defence, I had good reason. Concentrating on my health, family and work has taken priority. For a long time I wrote at the expense of everything else. There was little balance, if any at all. My weight ballooned, family started wondering if they’d ever see me again and work suffered. But then, I met the man of my dreams and really stopped to assess my life.

So while I have much writing to catch up, I haven’t been twiddling my thumbs. I’ve lost 77 pounds (35kg or 5.5 stone), am in the process of selling my house, have bought a new house with my man and work is back on track. I’m not done yet. I have another 15kg to lose (30 pound or thereabouts) and am starting to prepare for the June move. Needless to say, I doubt much writing will get done but let me just say, the new house has inspired me. I’ll have a new writing nook and the techno wizo man that I love will set me up with new equipment :) I’ll be mobile and creative. Yay.

Of course, lots of work to do between now and then!

  1. I’m betting on your writing blooming again after the move. It’s like bulbs that have to winter over, or whatever. Besides, getting a house ready to sell is a huge time suck. I haven’t done anything else in weeks!
