Especially when he is your fated mate.

Why do we do it to ourselves 🤣🤣

Writers Problems or just me. I really don't make things easy for myself me who is dyslexic decides to name a character I can't for the life of me remember how I spelt in book 1 so I am constantly checking book 1 and still every time I write his name the letters are the bloody wrong way round 😅🙊🙈

I have managed 1221 words today. It's the highest wc day I have had in 2025. My brain has been protesting this chapter loudly. Im hoping this is a sign I am back in the swing of things 🤞🏻

Fire and Ash by N.R. Hairston

I've actually managed 566 words today, after 5 days of 0 🥳😁

Thank you, I will give that a go as well. And see if it works.

Thank you, I will give it a go rather than trying to guilt myself to write.

I'm struggling with writing at the moment. I can't quite put my finger on why though life has been stressful this last month, but it's more the characters aren't talking to me, and the words aren't wording and yet I really want to get into this story 😔

🫂🫂 I'm sorry that is has been such a tough year. You definitely aren't alone.

Thank you 💙

That's a shame. Hopefully it does come back soon.

It really is. Have you tried short stories or novellas? Something shorter than a full length novel might be the way to get the reading flow back.

As a mood reader myself, I can relate to this feeling so bad, especially when it's I'm not sure what I'm in the mood to read.
This is when I do rereads of old favourites, or read fanfics. Sometimes it helps, other times it doesn't.

Reposting this here for authors and readers (thanks @clioevansauthor.bsky.social for bringing this to my attention) so we know what we’re up against and why BlueSky will become one of the few places we can promote spicy book content (more in comments since I can only post 4 pics)
