Have you ever heard of hump day? It’s the term given to the midweek blues. Like when people get to Wednesday in their 5 day work week and they just need to get through the day to see the promise of the weekend.
I have that feeling with Jewel of the Sea at the moment. I am currently about midway through editing it. I feel like I’m loosing steam. I feel like I’ve been working on it for so long and yet there is still so far to go. I’m trying really hard to focus on the positives to keep myself motivated.

Ally was born in London but grew up in Suffolk which is where most of her YA Fantasy novels are based. She is happily married to her high school sweetheart, and together they are raising two cats, their son and daughter.
When Ally is not writing (or at her day job), she loves spending time with her family at the local beach, in the forest or watching way too much Netflix. Ally loves a cup of tea and has been known to order one on a night out.
Ally mainly writes YA Contemporary Fantasy but also enjoys writing for children (picture books), New Adult and other genres, including poetry. Ally blogs and has written content for educational platforms. Stay turned for details of her new releases.

Many times, the midpoint, or 3/4 point, of a project leads people to overly stress about continuing. Take a break, refresh yourself and go forward.

Thanks. I might do that but right now I want to be done and I know logically to achieve that I’ve got to keep going. I’ve done two chapters this week 🙂
