I've not written one word today because I was busy with other stuff, like finding a hotel in London, for a decent price. England's capital city is damn expensive, but I managed to pull it off. I found a nice hotel located near Tower Bridge. You see, every year I travel to London the participate in the Heart of London Bridges Walk. It's a charity event. So I will be in London for three days, three whole days. I can't wait.
"CRY offers subsidized ECG and Echocardiogram screening to all young people between the ages of 14 & 35. There is a simple way to diagnose most cardiac abnormalities. That is by having an ECG (electrocardiogram) test. A cardiologist should read results. For extra clarity, an Echocardiogram can also be done. If there has been a young (under 35) sudden death in the family, the family is entitled to be screened on the NHS. All of CRY’s public events are free to attend."

Every year, the CRY organization saves many lives. So, once a year, I walk the bridges raising awareness for cardiac risk in the young!
Tomorrow will be all about writing again. I hope to finish at least three more chapters.
Have a great evening!

It was not going to happen!
As you could read in yesterdays blog, I was planning on making the Sunday all about writing. Well, no such luck because I wasn't feeling well. It was like my head was stuffed with cotton. I hate when that happens. I was so out of it that continuing working on The Wentworth Pack was impossible.
Today I feel much better again, thank God! I finished all my chores, and now I'm on the couch, watching Castle and writing again, yaaay for me.
Also, it's not so humid outside as it was yesterday because it makes breathing difficult, for me anyway.
I was stuck on Eric and Jory's story, but I managed to prevent writer's block. My novel is in the final stage, and I didn't know how to continue, let me tell you that it sucks, big time!
However, I got the brilliant idea to write a summary for the last couple of chapters, and it worked. I now know how the story ends and how to write a strong last section of the story.
Have a great week, y'all!

Still, no title!
It's been a while since I wrote a blog. My only excuse is that I worked hard to get my paperbacks published. Most of you don't know it, but it's hard work for an Indie Author like myself, who do everything themselves.
And because I was so busy getting my ebooks published as a paperback, I didn't have much time to continue working on my next book The Wentworth Pack. As of now, I do have the time work on my novel again.
I wracked my brain to come up with a title for book two in The Wentworth Pack Series but to no avail. I can't come up with anything! Ah, well, it will take me a few more weeks to finish the novel, so I still have the time to think of something.
For the record, my ankle still hurts very much, and last Monday, I suffered a kidney attack that cost me days to recover from. I couldn't even visit my friend who is terminal ill; she has lung cancer.
It's been six days since the kidney attack and I feel much better. At least breathing isn't difficult anymore.
To will be spent on the couch, mostly writing but also watching TV, cuddling up with my dogs and watch Formula one Racing.
Have a great Sunday!

In print!
Yep, it's finally going to happen. Soon, my books will be available in print and I'm so proud! It's a lot of work before a book is ready to be printed. I moved from the living room to my home office again because it's quieter, no distractions.
My ankle still hurts like a bitch, but there's nothing I can do about, right now. So I have to deal with it the best that I can.
Today and tomorrow will be all about writing, it's time that I finish some of my stories. In between, I will work on the print version of The Wentworth Pack and Grapevines & Skyscrapers book 01 and 02. Which means, new cover design and recheck the manuscript. Choosing fonts and stuff. It's really exciting.
About Christmas Miracles.
Christmas Miracles will also be available in print and in German (revised version), but not right away. No, this book will be available in print right before, of course, Christmas :) Just as the sequel to Christmas Miracles.
So, there's a lot to do. No rest for the wicked hahaha.
Have a good weekend y'all! I know that I will...

Stories and Shitty Moments!
Even though I still suffer from depression, writing goes well. I make serious progress with Club Ghosttown, and that pleases me to no end. So far I nearly wrote 17.000 words, and that's not bad if I say so myself.
I connect perfectly with Kieran and Max, and their surroundings. To have that connection is very important, for me anyway. It's essential for writing a good and reliable story.
The Wentworth Pack is on hold, for now. That's why I always have several projects on my shelf. If I get stuck on one story, I just start with the next one. This week I even changed the date and priority of the stories that are "work in process."
I'm developing a lovely shitty, food allergy, and it's getting worse every month that passes. I wonder if I'll ever be able to eat normally again. For now, I concentrate on writing stories. It's a good distraction from the all-day problems that seem to hit me right now.
Next week I will visit my friend. It's heartbreaking that she has so little time left. She's on morphine, and I'm afraid that it will influence her brain because that's what morphine does.
My ankle still hurts like hell! But it's peanuts in comparison to what my friend has to go through. So, I'm not complaining.
That's it for today!
Have a great weekend, ya'll! I will try and do the same. X

Club Ghosttown!
It's a few days now that I'm stuck. I can't seem to continue with The Wentworth Pack book two. So, yesterday I started with creating the book cover for Grapevines and Skyscrapers book three. It will be the final book in the G & series and will be released right before Christmas 2019.
Today I started with Club Ghosttown. It will be the story of Max and Kieran. I'm not sure which direction this story will lead Max and Kieran, but it will come to me. For now, I just keep writing. I need to keep working on at least one of my story's because I need the distraction. My friend has lung cancer, and she's getting worse.
The doctors say that that they can't do anything for her anymore. She's on morphine now that's the only thing they can do for her, lessen the pain. However, the deadly decease has spread through her body, and the pain meds aren't really helping. It's a heart-wrenching situation.
Standing on the sideline and not being able to help her is frustrating.
