Here in the Mermaid Lagoon, we’re talking about finishing our books. So, how do I finish writing my books? When I’m nearing the finish line, this is how it generally goes.

After I procrastinate by doing such fun and exciting things like laundry, dusting, running to Target, etc., I eventually sit down at my desk.

Without fail, I start to doubt myself. Sometimes I have to give myself a dose of tough love.

Then I get back to it.

Eventually, I remember that I’ve done this before. I’ve finished other books.

So, I get back to it. And I do it. I finish another book!

Yep, that’s pretty much the process.
