I really need to be writing my second book, but reading lately just has been getting in the way. Usually before work i read instead of watching TV. There is really nothing to watch at 6am and the news is just too depressing to watch. I pay attention to world events and what is around town, but to watch and re-watch all the hate in our local towns I just can't take, so I read.

Being pregnant the first time my reading went way up especially towards the end of it. Working full-time on my feet would have me lounging at night at home with my feet up reading whatever i could get my hands on.

This time around my goal is to have around 20,000 words or so done before baby #2 arrives in November.

How is this going?

Not so well. I'm tired and just want to read. It doesn't help that a bunch of my fave authors had new books out in the last month or so. Plus I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and with extra Dr appointments i feel i have lost my drive with this goal.

So all this leads to me reading more and more and writing less and less. i need to start set a reading time and a writing time and stick to it, no matter what.

Can this be done?

Hopefully?!

I'll probably need to start telling my hubby, so that he can get on my case of "did you do your writing today" Never realized how motivating it would be having him randomly asking me if I got my writing done that I wanted to do.

Here's to another day with hopefully some more words.
