Coronavirus and My Writing Delays
I was all set to get stuck into writing after we moved our business recently, but then the Coronavirus Pandemic was announced and things started to change drastically.
Who would have thought you could waste half a day running around trying to find toilet paper or tissues. The world has gone completely mad.

The fall out from the Coronavirus for us here in Australia is yet to be fully felt, I’m sure but so far we’ve had cancelled bookings (my day job is tourism based) and we’ve seen significant downturn in local spending. All of this means I need to dedicate a little more time for at least a little longer to ensuring our family business keeps ticking away. While also ensuring we keep infections to a minimum to keep our families (particularly the oldies) from harms way. (My oldest son is randomly spraying the hallways with Glen 20 as I write).
Tell me how this Pandemic has changed your world in the comments below. Sharing is caring after all and I’m sure my disruption is mild compared to what some of you overseas are experiencing.
There is a silver lining, for me anyway. I’ve spent more time on the water lately. It’s part of the job to promote the product and I hope one day I’ll be in the position to do the same for my writing (attending events and book signings etc) but that is a way off for now.

As I draft my next two books, I would really appreciate your feedback. If you have read any of my books, please leave a review on your favourite ebook store. Here is a link to my author page on Amazon if that gives you a place to start.
If you are looking to catch up on some reading during forced quarantine or social distancing, then take a look at these two awesome giveaway opportunities. Warning! Some of the romance books look a little hot for some tastes, so please select carefully.

Hello Fiona, I have respiratory problems so am staying close to home. Of course, being so means more cleaning, ironing, sorting of clothes and shoes and making sure hubby is kept at bay – true! He works outside, I inside lol Apart from that, it is giving me the best reason (no excuses) to sit and write. Besides, there are the storylines to work on, tidy, edit and so on. You know what I mean. I am loving it but not the isolation. Take care.

Nice to hear you’re doing ok Anne. I’ve finally managed to get some words on the paper for book 3 in The Eternal Realm series so fingers crossed I can still release late May or June. Luckily I’ve not been totally isolated as my watersports are something that keep me out and about and still a safe distance from others. Stay safe. Write well!
