Starting a New Book


Starting a new book is so hard. You've just been immersed in the world of one book, feeling the ups and downs and sideways' of it's characters, and experiencing your own life through the eyes of that book. Then, suddenly, it's over (The End) and you're forced to try to immerse yourself in a new story, new woes, new friends. 
New narrative, new style. 
It's all a little jarring, in my opinion. 

It's important to ease into this process with a buffer of coffee. And do not for any reason pick up your phone to begin blogging about how hard it is to start a new book because then it's over. Then you have picked up the phone and at that point, why not check the instagrams, facebooks, and emails? If this should happen to you, promptly put the phone down as soon as the blog post is finished. Pick up the book and begin again.
