I’m an addict!
Yes sir, I am! And if that’s a crime then arrest me because I won’t let go of this drug!
A substance called writing. π
This week went off to a great start for me when I finished the last book of a series I called “Meant to Be”. I started and finished the first story six years ago, but I focused on finishing the series 2 years ago. All 7 books are still in draft stages. It was hard with my son buzzing around me all day long, but Iβm addicted to the feeling of reaching the end.
So here I am, still shivering from the after shake of the chemical π

Hey Jessica, congratulations, that is a fantastic accomplishment indeed!π₯³π₯³π₯³πππ Keep it up! 6 hours of sleep isn’t so bad, but 7 is better.ππΊπ
Jessica E. Larsen
Thank you Steve β€ it wasn’t easy for an impatient person like me, but I’m glad I’m stubborn. You’re right 7 is better and 8 is the best π
stevescountry
People actually sleep 8 hours?π³
Sometimes stubbornness is a good quality! Or better yet, tenacity. I’m very tenacious about my stubborn tenacity. Or is it the other way around?π€π
Jessica E. Larsen
Let’s just say it’s the other way around. If you agreed, I flipped it, so I can make your head spin π

How am I going to sleep now?π³
Jessica E. Larsen
That’s the point, I’m not letting you sleep π
stevescountry
Not nice.π

Joke. I wish you get a good sleep every night. It’s bad for me and Muffin. She won’t get her food and the 20/20 stories won’t get updated hehe
stevescountry
Hmm, that’s a thought.
Jessica E. Larsen
Oh and I’d love to sleep up to 10h if possible. π
stevescountry
That’s something I just can’t imagine.π€ππ€ͺ
Jessica E. Larsen
really? I love sleeping. Do you usually only sleep for 7h each night?
stevescountry
Normally 6 or 7 hours, but since getting Covid that has changed to 8 hours usually and sometimes a nap during the day as well. Terrible. But all my life it’s been 6 or 7 hours. Well, time for bed or I’ll miss my extra hour of free sleep tonight, don’t want that to happen! Good night Jessica!πππ΄
Jessica E. Larsen
Sweet dreams Steve. I hope you feel better despite getting it.
stevescountry
Thanks Jessica. Have a great day!
Jessica E. Larsen
same to you π

Oh Goodness! I am so proud of you Jessica… I wish I find the courage and strength to breakthrough my writers’ block… I have really been slacking off.
Jessica E. Larsen
Thank you so much Gauri β€οΈ
I’m prone to writer’s block too, but I’m very stubborn and persistent. Even when it feels hopeless I still try to write something other than what I’m working on. A short, or poems usually helps. If not, I binge read any book I have on the bookshelf. Reading help motivates me to go back to writing.
Thank you for dropping by and sharing your thoughts. π€

The rush of having something you can’t help but write down or type out, is the best. So hard to explain to non-writers too!
Jessica E. Larsen
So true! The excitement so bad it felt like I’ve consume so much caffeine haha π yes, it’s quite hard to explain to non-writers haha π

Excellent, Jessica! I’m happy for you and your happiness.
Yes, please find time to sleep. I’ve been watching videos on the subject of [sleep, and how it affects everything in our lives] on Ted from a professional by the name of Matt Walker. I’ve always know sleep was important, but now I have a better understanding of why.
Jessica E. Larsen
Thank you β€
I heart about the importance of sleep too and read some pretty scary stuff about people who had not enough. Thanks for mentioning some their names I’ll search them later π
