This is it! The final installment of the A to Z Challenge and, once again, it’s a challenging letter. I first titled this post Z is for Zombified as it feels like I’m a zombie these days, trying to balance everything I want to do while continuing to do what I need to do. I get it, we sometimes need to balance our priorities and let some things slide (check my post about Persistence and Priorities) it’s just not in my nature to say no to a writing project.
I went with Z is for Zeal instead as I zealously strive for living through my passion no matter my exhaustion level and the pressure plus deadlines seem to help with that. The more opportunity I have to write the more passionate I become.
This month while working on the daily posts for the A to Z Challenge I also managed to read a book, review it, write a new bio, write a press release, interview other authors and catch up on some replies. My level of zeal when it comes to writing is through the roof when I actually make the time to do what I love.
So I am signing off on this challenge with some zeal and motivation, thinking I’m going to work on a daily blog post for May following the same A to Z theme but with fiction this time. With so many ideas running around in my head this may give me the platform I need to find the one I want to grow!
So thank you to all of you for sticking with this with me and I’ll see you soon!
Thanks for reading,
Sarah Butland
Congratulations! Zeal is a great word and something to aim for in life.
