Writing Challenges: #TheMerryWriter & #MythMadnessWIP Days 15 - 21

It's been a rough month! I wasn't sure I'd manage to get my normal blog posts out. Our internet has been acting crazy this past week. And that's not all! But in spite of everything, here I am with the past week's writing challenge responses. Read on to check them out!

#TheMerryWriter Days 15 - 21

Day 15 - Share a book aesthetic about your current WIP

Day 18 - Share one song you listened to today. - Lazy Monday Chill Mix ...Blume...

Day 20 - Title of current WIP

Day 19 - Current mood as a GIF or meme

Day 21 - Are there any parts of your WIP that need a spring cleaning? - Oh, yes!

Alow me to talk a bit about the first photo. Creating book aesthetics is a skill I'm working on. I tried to choose books that contained some similar events, study topics, and actual connection to the current WIP. Tea, stone beads, glass crystals, the sun & moon, plants, flame, and tea all make an appearance in 'Over Land & Under Stone' in some form or other. (At least for now...) I couldn't not use my prettiest tea mug and the new beads I acquired during a recent trip. Even the fabric I covered my small table with has a connection.

You know, sometimes I feel like I'm sharing so much people will get tired of hearing what's coming and just ignore the book once it's out. But if I'm honest, I remind myself I'm not writing to earn more money than I could manage. I'm writing for the love of writing. I know there are people out there who will find my story and be touched by what they read. And even if that doesn't happen, my children will be able to pass these stories down to their children. That's a pretty amazing legacy, I think.
