Writing can be a writers worst nightmare!!

The title sounds strange for a writer doesn't it! 🙂 However I haven't written on this blog for over a year. I'm not sure why.  The past 5 years I have been writing my autobiography on living a life with Epilepsy. Yes, five years. I never understood why people always stated that a book, play, or movie took so long to create. Now I understand, life happens. Someone or something doesn't want me to finish my book.  In the past five years I have had two surgeries to try to fix tendinitis in my right wrist and have had many many hours of physical therapy. There indeed are times when a writer doesn't have much to say. This is just like a singer who has nothing ro sing, or a teacher who has nothing to teach, this could lead to a career end. Sometimes there is just no motivation, I'm not sure why I am not motivated, sharing my story and what I am walking through I know would help others. Focus is hard for me, I find myself distracted easily. For example, this year I have been bird watching. There are two different sites where you can watch eagles 🦅 lay there eggs then watch the babies hatch and grow. One site is https://hdontap.com/index.php/video/stream/pa-bald-eagle-ir-cam

the other is http://www.dickpritchettrealestate.com/eagle-feed.html#
the second site the baby is already perching with mom and dad and is almost ready to leave the nest. Then of course there is also the most famous Giraffe in all the land, miss April! I have also given up evening television 📺 so I could focus more. I was so serious about it, I gave it up for Lent . I have added more to my book so I'm happy about that, just frustrated.  I guess I needed to do some journaling and decided to do it here. The next time I write I hope it's to say I have finished my book!! 📚😉
