Falling Behind #IWSG

Posted on October 1, 2025 by Loni Townsend

I missed last month. In fact, I almost missed this month’s Insecure Writer’s Support Group too. Life seems to be non-stop lately, with birthdays and school and juggling outings with dog training. I haven’t had a down weekend in a while, and I’m tired.

The dog is huge (75lbs now at 7mos old). We got a DNA test to find out what to expect, and I had to blink at the results. Apparently, I have a husky. Wouldn’t have thought that.

And while I wish I could blame all the kid and dog stuff for me being behind on my writing, I really can’t. My brain isn’t visualizing the scenes very well right now, and that makes it hard to get the words down. With this being October, I should be at the 75% mark, and based on my estimations, I’m about 5 chapters behind my goal. *sigh*

But I’ll get there. Just need a few more Red Bulls.

IWSG Question of the Month – What is the most favorite thing you have written, published or not? And why?

I have to say my favorite at the moment is the short story, Just a Matter of Time in the Full Dark anthology. It was just a fun story. Speaking of, it’s almost that anthology’s birthday!

How has your time management been lately? Have you felt busy? What’s your favorite thing you’ve written?

    Hey! Good luck with your lovable and challenging husky. They are wonderful dog, but they have minds of their own. (First-hand experience talking here.) And, yes, Red Bulls are in order.

Welcome to my blog. I post here on the first Wednesday of the month. My topics include my stories and writing, life at the Town's End, creating and tinkering with graphics, things I learn and think might be helpful to others, and the occasional amateur photo. Thanks for stopping by! I hope to see you around.
