Why I'm Not Writing This Week 7/20

Welcome to "Why I'm Not Writing." We all know that the only thing writers like doing more than writing is avoiding writing. So every Friday I list five things that have distracted me from my writing that week. 

I also encourage you to share with me what made you procrastinate this week by posting with #whyimnotwriting on Twitter, Facebook & Instagram, or share in the comments below. I'll feature my favorites with everyone here. 

Road Trip!

My roadtrip from last weekend continued on through Monday of this week. We hit Notre Dame, Indianapolis and Lexington before heading home. We got to visit with friends and family that we haven't seen in a long time. It was an awesome trip, although it didn't allow much time for writing...

Coming Home

Coming home from trips is always a somewhat exhausting experience for me. The unpacking, the catch up cleaning, the need for sleep after a long day on the road. My husband does a lot around the house so that helps a lot, but I still enjoy sleeping in after a road trip.

Great Time With Friends

I'm so lucky to have such great friends who live close to me. Unfortunately, one of my favorite friends is moving across the country soon. We got to have dinner together this week and say a few goodbyes although I know it won't be forever. 

Queer Eye Season Two

After a busy week and weekend, I got to catch up on my Netflix shows. The next season of Queer Eye has apparently been out for weeks. I'm so far behind! I binged the show this weekend and love it just as much as the first season! 

Camp NaNoWriMo

We're three weeks into Camp now. I'm still on track but I'm worried that my original goal won't actually get me to the end of my book like I'd planned. So I'm wondering if it's better to hope that I get there and then race to make up for anything left over or just start writing more now. We'll see how it turns out!
