Have you heard the expression, “having too many plates in the air?” Better yet, have you seen a spinning plate performance on television? I have. It gave me childhood anxiety, watching the juggler rushing from stick to stick to give each spinning plate a little acceleration before they could topple to the ground and break (for weren’t they certainly china plates?)
You can relate the plates to whatever you want. Some liken them to plot points. For me, I see the plates as different aspects of my life that are simultaneously asking for my attention. Writing books, editing books, releasing books and marketing books. Then there’s my other life: homeschooling, my bookkeeping business, my furbaby scheduled for surgery next week.
But let’s talk about something more fun. While gearing up for the release of THE GYPSY IN ME, I’ve been re-acquainting myself (and everyone else) with the first book in the series. Here’s a fun little Amazon tool. Click on the “Read a Sample” link next to the cover! Don’t worry, it won’t ask you for your wallet or your first born… 🙂
Let me know if it works in the comments! Cheers!
