IWSG Blog Post - Audio Books and Discouragement

It’s time for another group posting of the Insecure Writer’s Support Group! The purpose of the IWSG is to share and encourage. Writers can express doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds! 
The first Wednesday of every month is officially Insecure Writer's Support Group day. Post your thoughts on your own blog. Talk about your doubts and the fears you have conquered. Discuss your struggles and triumphs. Offer a word of encouragement for others who are struggling. Visit others in the group and connect with your fellow writers. This group is all about connecting!

April 6 question - Have any of your books been made into audio books? If so, what is the main challenge in producing an audio book?

Nope. 
This month is a short answer for me. I know nothing about audio books or how to put my work in that format. It's one of the many "nice to have" features I'll get around to someday. Right now, my focus is writing. I plan to finish the series I'm working on, market it, then complete my other WIPs.

Lately, the plan has stalled, and I’m frustrated. I'm editing book two of my Heroes and Villains trilogy. Or, I should say TRYING to edit. I thought I'd be further along by now. Good grief, I wrote the entire first draft in one month during NaNoWriMo, but the editing is snail-like. Everything conspires to bog me down. My kids get sick. I get sick. My husband has evening meetings multiple nights a week. Family is visiting. My kids get sick again. 

I'm only on chapter ten out of nineteen. Barely halfway.

I tell myself I'll get back on track next week. Just like I told myself last week. Sorry this post is a downer! I'll end on a high note.

​My favorite show is back on TV! The Masked Singer brings a smile to my face every week. I know it's a silly concept, and sometimes the "celebrities" are people I've never heard of, but when somebody truly cool is unmasked, like Cyclops or McTerrier... *chef's kiss*

See you next time! I'm co-hosting the blog hop on May the Fourth!
