For a time, my depression and anxiety took over. I checked out for a few months, wondering if what I am trying to do is insane. Mad. Stupid. I was positive I was helping no one and I'd made a huge mistake trying to follow my dream to be a writer and blogger.
But encouragement found me, from a few different sources, and I'm back. Back in my head, back in my heart, and back in the game. While I've been silent, I've been diligently working on my new website and getting my new book prepared for publication. My first novel was picked up by a publisher, and as exciting as that is, it's been a huge waiting game so far. Which I have since discovered is normal when being traditionally published. I'm on the calendar for it's release in the Fall of 2017, and the madness of getting it ready to go will start around April next year. But in the meantime, I started a YA series, took a class on self-publishing, and I've decided to commit 100% to self-publishing it. Hence, the new website, FB page, Instagram page, etc. If if you are interested in keeping up with my comings and goings, and want to stay in the loop on my writing projects, please visit my author website, www.alisonlperry.com. There you can subscribe to my newsletter, continue to read blog posts about my ever continuing journey, and learn about what I'm doing now and my plans for the future. You can also follow me on Facebook at www.facebook.com/AlisonLPerryAuthor. Book one of my YA series will be published in early January and I can't be more thrilled about it!
