❝ Finding writing time requires a modicum of organization, but using it productively demands dedication. ❞
- Cris Freese, Writersdigest.com -
Truer words have never been written, cause in hindsight, creating a writing plan was a breeze but sticking to it ... that is a different matter entirely. 😥

Frankly I am surprised at myself. I love writing so much I thought applying myself to sharpen those particular skills would come very easy. But nothing is further from the truth. In fact the more I know about various writing techniques and ways to craft a novel, the harder it gets to just sit down and just write. 🤔
•
The only thing that saves me from giving up on writing, is the fact that I am a ferocious reader. Every time I finish a book and re-enter reality there are new rhetorical techniques, strategies, and effective turns of phrase I’d like to be able to apply to my own writing. 🧐
•
So I guess the time has come to establish the one thing all great writers seem to have in common ... a writing routine. 😔
•
QOTD: I certainly could use tips and tricks and if you have a routine I’d like to know why your writing routine works for you? ☺️

I have been MIA for a while, mainly because it was selfcare time. This is officially the 3th day after my 7 day @freciousslowjuice detox and I feel very energetic and totally refreshed 😜

The verdict on my detox / cleansing journey is that it was totally worth it. I actually lost weight, something my body was not able to do for at least the past 4 years. I lost a total of 4 kg in just 7 days, which I am really impressed with, but since healthy juices is all I consumed, I don’t believe this will last. That is unless I adopt a healthy lifestyle 😊
•
What did blow my mind is what happened to my waist. Apart from the juice detox, I visited AquaColonic in Rotterdam, to have Colon hydrotherapy (hoge darmspoeling). I had 3 treatments and litterally lost 9 cm of my waist in 7 days. Even though this might not last either, it’s very obvious I had a lot of cleaning up to do 😳
•
I am back to eating regular meals. Mostly vegan and mainly fruits and vegetables. I also drink 2.5 litres a day and watch my sugar & salt intake. Something I have done on and off for the past 4 years. Since my calorie intake is up, I will have to swap the relaxing yoga routines for invigorating cardio and add regular weight training (starting today)😥
•
Guess this is where my detox/cleansing journey ends and my fat loss journey starts 😁

Wish me luck 🤗
