BTF #2 is officially in the works!

It’s been a very long and very difficult postpartum after the birth of my son last November, and I’ve had neither the mental energy or mental capacity to try to write for the past seven months.

But I finally started writing again. And man, it feels good.

It also feels paralyzing—staring at the blank page again. I always have this feeling when starting a new book. It always feels like I’ve forgotten how to write a book even though I’ve done it seven times now.

But once I find my groove, the words usually start flowing.

Chapter one is already written.

Normally, I would choose an ambitious deadline and try to get the first draft done as quickly as possible. But this time I’m not going to force anything, as much as it pains me to not have an end goal in mind.

I’ve had really terrible postpartum anxiety/depression this time around, and it’s honestly been pretty debilitating. Thankfully it’s starting to get a little better, but two kids under two is no joke, and I’m so drained by the end of each day that it feels impossible to muster the brain power to write.

So I’m giving myself grace and not forcing myself to meet a deadline yet. I’ll write when I have the energy, and hopefully the more I write and stretch this unused muscle again, the more I’ll want to.

Even though I haven’t been writing, I’ve still been brainstorming the rest of this series—which I suppose is a form of writing too.

Thanks for hanging with me as I navigate what writing looks like as a mom of two <3
