The optional question didn't resonate with me this month, so I guess I'll talk about my angst.
I'm a finisher. I'm most comfortable when I start something and see it through to completion before starting another project. As an author, I have learned to work on a couple of different projects at once (focusing on one while dabbling on the other).
But I've struggled with burnout the last couple of years and have found myself bouncing between projects and even genres. Toward the end of 2024, I finally pulled myself together and finished two books. The second one I was in the midst of published even as I was admitted to the hospital!
So that kind of put a stop to everything for a few months as I recovered from being SO sick and the subsequent surgery.
I am writing again, on one of those projects I started and then set aside. But I'm getting a little switchy as I look at the list of partially written books. Seriously, I need to get faster at this!
Are you able to juggle more than one project at a time?
