Even though my list over there on the right says that I'm working on book number 2, I have to admit that it really ought to say "Avoiding working on book number 2." (Book number 1 is called Meandering Magic and can be found on my website).
I'm not really sure why I'm procrastinating about it. I pretty much know exactly what's going to be in it. Based on the success of the first one, I'm pretty sure this one will do well, also. I know what I did wrong (and right) with the first one, so I have a good idea of what to do this time.
I've also made promises about when it will be ready, so I can't put it off too long, if I don't want to break those promises.
I also know exactly how much drawing and editing I have to do get this one ready, and I suspect that that is exactly why I'm putting it off. About 2 weeks ago I made myself work on it every day for an hour. That lasted about 2 days. Starting tomorrow, I think I'd better start that again, or it'll never get done!
How dare you procrastinate when there are people out here that NEED that book! How could you do that to US?
Does guilt help as a motivator? It was worth a try!

LOL, Vicki. Part of why I even posted was the notion that if I admitted to it, and other people knew, it'd be an even better reason for me to get off my duff and stop procrastinating.....
