Scratching My Head while Writing

I’m going to get a little deep with you all. If you don’t already know, I have another pen name. Her name is Elizabeth Lynx. She writes steamy romantic comedies. They are ridiculous, sometimes over-the-top, and just fun to write.
This month was my 9 year anniversary writing for her, so I have published her books for a long time. When I came up with Josie Max, it was because I had so many ideas for stories in my head that wouldn’t work for romantic comedies. They were too dark, twisted, or the characters were devastating.
I am the two sides of the same coin. My heads is Elizabeth Lynx while my tails is Josie Max. I enjoy being able to write both. But some personal things have happened that have made me choose between the two.
While this is only a temporary choice, it’s still - to me - like choosing between your children. An impossible task.

But I chose Josie Max. I have had to put Elizabeth Lynx temporarily on hold so I can focus all my attention on writing Josie Max's books. If you are here because you are an Elizabeth Lynx reader and found out I also wrote for Josie Max, then you probably know why I had to make the choice.
In a nutshell, my marriage has fallen apart, and I needed to make some tough decisions both personally and professionally. I went into more detail with my Elizabeth Lynx readers, as they were more affected by the decision.
And hey, if you like steamy romantic comedies and didn’t realize I wrote them, check out her books HERE. Elizabeth Lynx also sells her ebooks on her website at a discounted rate but full-price on retailers like Amazon.
Why am I telling you all this if it doesn’t really affect Josie Max readers? Because I want you to know how serious I am with writing and publishing her books. I am focusing all my attention on her for the foreseeable future.
I also have something in the works that will happen in March that will give some people a chance to be in on the writing experience from the beginning. I had been waiting for word from a company if I could use their platform for what I was planning and worried it might not be until May that I could make it happen. Well, I just got word that I can start in March. Yay!
Super excited and plan to tell you more next week.
It’s now time for my personal indulgence.

What the hell is that thing on my head? It’s the most amazing thing in the world. I am not exaggerating when I say that.
That claw like thing is a head scratcher.
And it is one of the best purchases I ever made. Like I mentioned above, my marriage has fallen apart. Therefore, for Christmas I bought my own presents. This was one of them.
It’s so good that my 11-year-old steals it from me all the time to use it to scratch his head.
If you’re like me and love messages and head scratches and that sort of thing, then you’ll love this head scratcher.
If you’re more of a back scratcher sort of person, I did also buy a back scratcher, as I’m not flexible enough to get to every itch on my back. It is so good and works perfectly. Plus, it’s hard enough my kids can’t break it if they try to use it.
I hope you all have a great weekend.

Luv Ya,
Josie Max
