For those of you who have been following along, you know that I try to post a Teaser Tuesday post each week here on Wendy's Musings. With the upcoming overhaul of this site (I am trying hard to keep it just about my author side of the house), this particular post will no longer appear.
However, if you would like to continue following my teaser posts and would also like to check out my past and upcoming book reviews, then come on over to Escape Into Fiction, my book review blog! Today's Teaser Tuesday post can be found there along with all sorts of other bookish things.
Thanks for your understanding and I apologize for any inconvenience.

Changes Run Amok
If it's been a while since you've been to the blog, you'll notice some changes taking place. I guess I decided I was in a Blue Period but I like how things look for the moment. And I've added some new things to the sidebar, like a logo with the link to Cressen Books, my publishing company, a display of my Tweets, and a widget displaying what book I'm currently reading. I've also made a few tweaks to the About page but those are more subtle.
Some of these changes were made due to the fact that I decided to end my book review blog, Escape Into Fiction, but I still wanted to share what I was reading at the moment and such, which would have been found there. And because Escape Into Fiction has escaped into the sunset, I thought I might participate in some bookish memes here on my authors' blog, such as Teaser Tuesdays hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading and Waiting on Wednesday hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. Those two memes in particular I really enjoyed and thought it would add a nice mix up here on Wendy's Musings. It's all book related, so it's all good. And I think it's also good to share things outside of just what project I'm working on at the moment. Makes me feel more human!
I'm also hoping that these changes will have me posting on this blog more often. I realized that as I got busier with everything happening with the business, I was spending less and less time on the book review blog. And when I took into account what I was posting there (when I had the time), I realized that I could just as easily incorporate those posts here on this blog.
I'm still trying to adjust to this new idea, so some of the memes I've mentioned may or may not get posted this week. I wanted to make sure I was satisfied with the overall "new" look of the blog before I dove into adding new posts. I also intend to continue reviewing the occasional book, especially if it's a book that I found really interesting or amazing. So, be on the lookout for reviews thrown in here and there.
So, although I'm sad to see the end of Escape Into Fiction, I know and feel that it was the right decision to make. I look forward to occasionally sharing fun bookish memes with you all as well as reviews and of course the usual musings! :)

Writing Woes
No matter how much I try to focus, I just can't seem to get the writing woes to go away. I would blame my Muse, but he actually has given me all sorts of great ideas to work with. I just can't seem to find the focus or energy to sit in front of the computer long enough to write anything down. Maybe it's the holidays or maybe it's the scenery...who knows.
The sad part is that I seem to be able to find time and energy to read and write book reviews to post to my other blog, Escape Into Fiction. I think part of the reason for that, though, is that it's such a change in what I normally do and I'm not necessarily dealing with the same characters day in and day out. Don't get me wrong...I absolutely love the characters and the worlds I've created. They're a very strong part of me and I'm never far away from them, whether it's me thinking about them or writing about them. But sometimes it's nice to escape into other worlds and meet other characters.
With all this said, I really need to find some way to get my focus back on the book I'm writing. So, I'll be making a very conscious effort to put my energies into L&L #3 this week and hopefully will have some awesome progress to share next week. And, because of this effort, this will probably be my last post until after Christmas at least. So, I wish everyone a very merry Christmas and hope that Santa's good to you!
