April 2025 update

Published: Apr 27, 2025 by

It’s been a little while since the last update so it seemed like a great time to write a little about what’s been going on in the first part of 2025.

Firstly, to say that other things in life have taken priority over writing. Its been a busy time, leading to a struggle to prioritise writing and finding the energy and concentration to write. I’m sure many other indie authors will know this feeling, especially authors balancing writing alongside a full time job.

Writing started on the fourth part in the series last year and some good progress has been made, but a point was reached where there was a need to have a rethink about part of the story. Something didn’t feel quite right which resulted in a pause to consider it a bit more.

It seems like being a writer can often be a struggle of feeling like you are in complete control, followed by periods of mild panic and massive imposter syndrome.

In more positive news, however, there was a free kindle book offer for Trouble at the Church recently and the amount of downloads it received, and the follow on Kindle Unlimited reads and sales for the other two books in The Little-Astwick series really delivered a huge motivational boost and desire to continue writing the next part in the series.

Hopefully, things will settle back down once more and writing can continue.

Thank you to all the support you have shown to indie authors and please leave a review. It really helps!
