What to write

Natasha RoseLeave a comment

When you’re drawing a blank where do you start.

So what do you do when you plot bunnies stop hoping? What do you do when inspiration is shot? When nothing flows? Do you give up and sulk or cry? Do you yell and scream? Do you rage quit?

Nope you ask questions, of yourself and others. Read some books you enjoy by authors you like. You need to look for inspiration, hunt it down. Listening to music, watching TV or movies, playing games (on whatever platform you enjoy).

Take time to breathe, be kind to yourself. Some days you’ll be inundated with words, sentences, paragraphs. With characters, scenes and scenarios. Others you’ll. Be stumped for one word let alone anything else.

It’s kinda like painting or drawing the hardest part is looking at the blank page. How do you start, how to you continue. I find Pinterest is a great source of ideas. Story ideas, dialog ideas, whatever you need for inspiration.

So that’s my ramble for this post.

Hugs and love to you all

Another day

Natasha RoseLeave a comment

Another day has come and gone,

More time has passed.

As I get older, I start to wonder.

What am I doing? Where am I going?

I get more placid, but less tolerant.

I am happy and content, but want more yet.

My life is good, after so much bad.

I have come so far, yet I still have far to go.

Does this make sense? Does it matter?

So just a little ramble. Not much today.

Anyway hugs and love to all

Tash.

How to break a writer’s block?

I have no idea what to write, i’m not sure what i want to express. Sometimes the words just flow but days like today i’ve got nothing. I hate writer’s blocks. I’ve been having a block for years, havnt been able to write anything solid or even half decent for the last few years.

I’m hopeing if i just force myself to write everyday i will break this block. I’m also hopeing that getting back into writing like i used too it will help my anxiety. I know that writing a journal entry everyday or every other day has been helping somewhat.

I keep wondering if i should start working on some books i’ve had in mind for a while. I have had some plot bunnies running around, but they disappear before i’ve had a chance to write them down, or i do the old self lie. ‘I don’t need to write it down, i’ll remember’. Lol, i really need to stop doing that.

Wow i’m really good a rambling when i get started huh?

Anyway hugs and love to you all

Bye bye, Tash

No baby it seems.

Today was hard. As it turned out that the maybe baby is a no baby. I am worried that its not going to happen, that it’s not meant to be. Its so hard to stay positive when month after month (even after only 7months of trying) you get your hopes up and they are shattered.

People keep telling me to stop worrying and to just keep trying, but sometimes I wonder if I can. I know there are women out there who try for yrs with no luck. But i don’t think I could handle it. I’m not coping with the emotions of it all now so I feel that I would drive myself to insanity.

I don’t want to fail my partner, don’t get me wrong we both want this every much so but I feel that because I’m the one who conceives that I’m the one who is failing because I haven’t conceived yet.

I suppose that’s enough rambling from me for now. I need to stop or ill make myself sad again.

So for now I will sign off.

Hugs and love to all

Tash Rose.

Anxiety And Depression

Natasha RoseLeave a comment

Where to start? This is a hard topic to speak about for me. For a long time i couldnt talk about my issue’s. I was afraid to let people know that something was wrong. But more than that i didnt know what was wrong. But i finally worked out i had anxiety and depression. I dont know where to start with either subject but i know i will post more on these topics.

My goals

Natasha RoseLeave a comment

So i have decided that i need to be far more proactive. I am working on a plan for products. What to make. How long will each product take to meet. Im also working on my selling plan.

I hope to get more prolific with my media presence. Im not very good. But it is one of my goals as well.

Covid 19

Natasha RoseLeave a comment

So as of today we are being requested to stay at home unless absolutely necessary. Which is fine by me. Im not fond of being around anyone due to my anxiety. But my partner isnt so happy. One of his workplaces is now closed. And we are both sure his other one will close soon too.

This problem is being projected to last for 6 months. How are any of us supposed to cope and survive when workplaces are closing. Schools are closing and we are being told to stay home and away from others.

This sux almighty arse. Good time to catch up on my crochet. My craft projects and my writing though.
