With Rise of One’s launch this coming Tuesday, it’s hard not to feel overwhelmed with everything, all the last minute marketing bits and pieces to organise, the realization that this is the fruition of over two years of work, the long journey ahead as I write the rest of this five-book series, the pressure of juggling all this with a full-time job.
Something that keeps me grounded, honestly, is Dune’s Litany Against Fear. Whenever I feel afraid or nervous about writing or putting myself out there, to be ‘seen trying’, I mutter the litany as I go ahead and do the thing anyway.
I remind myself that the seasons are turning, evidenced by the frosty rooftops outside, and that procrastination is the cost of the life not lived.
