Try Something New!

I don't know about you, but I tend to fall into the same familiar ruts over and over again. It's my husband's fault as much as it is mine. We go to the same places, eat at the same restaurants, listen to the same music. It's comfortable - a life on repeat. 

I am here to tell you, if you are reading this, it's your sign to try something new today! You don't need to go too crazy; try a different dish at your favorite dining establishment. Wear different shoes, try a different color eye shadow, try thinking about yourself in a different way. 

At the beginning of this year, I decided to wholeheartedly agree with this 'Year of the Horse' astrology calendar thing. Yes, I know very little about it, other that this is THE YEAR for me! I've done my best to stick to that mentality; it's difficult for sure! It's easy to feel overlooked as an author; there are sooo many books out there. It's easy to get down on yourself. This past year, I started something new: TikTok. I was so new at it that my daughter had to tell me I spelt it wrong when I used a C instead of a K. Now, I am almost at 100 followers, and I feel momentum, which is a wonderful, wonderful feeling! I can't go live yet, I can't sell on there, etc., because I don't have enough followers, but I am confident I will get there! Not only are there goals I can set personally, but TikTok also helps me feel supported by all the other Indie Authors out there doing the same thing I am! It's been a fun NEW venture, one I'm happy to be on! P.S. my TikTok name is MM Writes, Spicy Author! 

What new thing will you try today??
