And the beat goes on

Posted in Writer psychology, Writing on October 29, 2008 by cjweisman

Well, I’m back writing again because I finally have the time.  The web business I launched is up and running.  Now it’s in the “maintaining” mode.  For the record, it is much more time consuming to launch a web business than to maintain one, which is what I’m doing now.  Much of the furor over my previous book has died down—although I still do radio interviews on a regular basis—which has freed up some time also.

 

It is a little intimidating to take some time off from your major writing project.  For one thing, where do you start when you decide to pick it back up again?  For me, I like to start slow.  I re-started this time by reading what I had already written, to put me back in the proper frame of mind.  I even came up with a working title for the book that I really like: Serious Doubts.  Whenever I come up with a potential title for a book I’m working on, the very first thing I do is search for that exact title on Amazon to see if it already exists.  The last thing I want to do is come out with book title that has already been used a dozen times.  Even if they are on completely different subjects it is bound to cause serious confusion in the market place, which I want to avoid.  Turns out, Serious Doubts has no titles on Amazon, which is why I am excited.  As for the sub—title, you’ll just have to wait for that.  What is the working title of your next book?  Let me hear from you.
