Ahhh, a perfect writing scenario….wouldn’t it be great to be able to focus on whatever you want?

I wrote this post because I feel like I’m on this rat race of blogging, pitching article ideas, researching, and meeting deadlines…with no sense of my long-term goals. And, one of my goals is to write a book. My agent hasn’t sold my past idea yet (the idea that got me signed up with him!), and has shot down my previous two ideas.

So, about 15 minutes ago, I sent him a third possible book idea! Even if he rejects that too, I feel so great that I’m trying to achieve my goal of getting a book published.

Now I have to go give blood for another hormone test, so I can achieve my goal of getting pregnant….

Hi Laurie,

I gulped a little and took pause when I read the title of this post. My writing has certainly been on a rollercoaster and I would say that I have been in each of the four situations described above at least once over the last year.

For me, things are cyclic. I guess if I had my perfect writing scenario, I would write just for me, get my novel finished and start working on my next one.

I’m good on everything but ROI.

It’s crackable. I’ll crack it.
