So. Many. Ideas!

I don't know about you guys, but, creatively, I'm booming. I don't mean to brag... but I'm gonna brag a little. It's not often I get to take a seat at my desk and just completely demolish my brainstorming sheet. I swear I wrote so much my pen started smoking. I have been really productive lately, and I'm so proud of myself for that. It really just makes me excited for the day I can do this full time, you know? I've always known this was something I wanted to do I just didn't think I'd ever actually do it. See, I've battled with depression and self doubt my whole life. Over the last two years, I've really been able to say I'm getting better. Everyday his bright for me now, and that's worth celebrating! I used to see myself as lazy and a huge procrastinator when, truthfully, I just didn't have the physical energy or mental capacity to handle even the tasks I wanted to get done. Now, things are different. I'm taking care of myself and I'm booming creatively because of it.

I started this post out thinking I would just be sharing my plethora of ideas with you, but that clearly took a little turn. It's important ,though, so I'm keeping it.

As of today, I've completely finished the first draft of my super secret project (I promise I'll tell you about it soon!) and now I'm outlining the next part! It feels awesome to be feeling so good today. I'm sure that will cease come time to edit.

You can expect updates on my new picture book in the next few days. I just wanted to drop in and celebrate myself a little bit.

Thanks always for listening to my rambling!

Love,

Naomi
