Something Big Is in the Works

Lord willing, I want to publish another story. But this isn’t just a stand-alone story.

No.

This is a beast of a project, and I’m currently in the stages of plotting and development. I have a fair few pages written already, but you can only go so far when you haven’t worked out all the bones you need for your story. Not the usual path I’ve taken when writing my other two published books! But this time, the story is big.

Like big, big. (Like multi-book big.)

So it’s probably going to take quite a while until this first book of the story is open to the public. Or… even open to my eyes. Haha! But that’s what’s been going on with me. I’d been advised to step away from writing, so it’s probably going to be a long while until this book is out. Although I hope it will be out eventually!

It’s hard not to criticise myself when I have OCD and don’t get things done as quickly as I’d like. I have to (well, at least I should) be patient with myself through this. I’ve not given up writing, I’m only taking a break and seeing what God has in store for me. I want to follow God’s lead. If that means going a separate way from writing, then I want to do that. If He wants me to stay and continue writing, I want to do that. If you didn’t know, I face a lot of health issues, and a lot of those keep me from doing what I want. My focus is pretty hard found when I have tons of brain fog. It’s difficult to determine how much is actual brain fog versus normal human tiredness. When you’ve been sick for a specific time period like mine, you wonder if it’s the fading of youth or if it really is your chronic illness. I don’t know! Maybe both?

Well, even if this story never takes flight, like a sad ostrich who wishes to fly, just know that God has something bigger in the works.

He always has something big in the works.

Let’s keep our eyes open to what He’s doing. Maybe He’ll reveal His ever-moving hands to us.
