Author Monthly Blog Post – Anne Barwell – The Struggle is Real

My sale book this month – Double Exposure – is my lockdown book. Usually, it takes me at least six months to write a book, but I polished off the first draft in seven weeks, which goes to show the impact of the day job ☹

Having limited time and energy can be a little depressing at times, and watching other authors write a book a month, I keep having to constantly remind myself that everyone is different, as is their situation. The temptation is strong to berate myself for not writing faster. I’ve tried getting up earlier to write, but that soon derails when I don’t finish the day job until 8.30 at night, and then have to be up for an earlier shift.

At present I’m trying to find balance between writing and down time. The struggle is real and never ending.

I’d love to know how others manage it.

Double Exposure
Pōneke Shadows Book 1

Vampires and werewolves live long lives. The Sleepless City saga might have ended but the story continues…

Someone is hunting supernaturals.

Vampire Simon Hawthorne and his human partner Ben Leyton’s plans for a peaceful holiday with family are hijacked by the New Zealand Supernatural Council.

Tensions are on the rise in Wellington. Supernatural councillors are disappearing. Werewolves are suspicious of anyone human or vampire. If they don’t work together, their enemy has already won.

And no one with a connection to the supernatural world is safe.
