Hello, Welcome to Writing with Sprinkle. I'm BH Sprinkle here to keep you in the know about how complicated and beautiful writer life can truly be.
If you haven't looked at my Instagram accounts yet please do. You never know what you're missing.
BH Sprinkle and Writing with Sprinkle are the account names.
Let's get into it.
It's Messy Over Here
The question isn’t can you, it’s will you?
Publishing has been quite a mess these past few years making me greatful that I'm still in the drafting and editing process.
As you can see here, there's a far more complicated system in getting your book into the hands of readers than I would have ever imagined.
When I was younger, I thought you write it and then send it someplace, then Wham! Books!
As a grown up I've done extensive research and looking into it properly uncovered so much goes into creating the book itself including multiple drafting and editing phrases. Queries. Agents. Possibly lawyers. Publishing houses. Professional editing. Marketing. Sales. It's quite overwhelming.
So, if anyone ever wonders what I'm doing in my now lockable bedroom/office... it's research on the matter and writing. But that's only part of it.
I'm also trying to take care of my doctor appointments, do job research, gain a bit of reading time, and take care of my mental health. Not to mention I still want to attend college because who quits after one try. Not me.
Short Conversation
So, this might sound just like a plot to be able to vent some deep and unimaginable emotions. It totally is. It's a chance to let you know something so incredibly important.
Just because nobody sees the direction you're taking or the results of it yet, that doesn't mean you're not creating something for your life. Or shaping your path by hand behind the scenes.
Let's cut it short.
