Another busy week and busy weekend! You’d think that I’d get a day off sometime, but no, heheh.
A few fun notes: I’ve now got 13 new story ideas written down and notated, some with research already begun. My personal goals for the next short story collection are:
- At least 15 completely new stories, perhaps as many as 20 new stories… (!!)
- Written, edited, and formatted as the next ebook before December 15th…
- That all flesh out and contribute to the shared mythos/universe they all take place in…
- …and that I have fun with every one of them.
So far I’m on the right track, I think! I’m excited about the new stories (ghosts! evil houses! monster hogs! pirates! zombies!) and now that I know how to do what I want to do with self publishing, it should be faster and easier to do it! I want to get as many story ideas written down before I head to Halloween Horror Nights this weekend, though, and I’m still blustering my way through three college classes this semester, too. (Currently: All A’s, and I want to KEEP IT THAT WAY…)
One thing that’s a bit of a bummer, it looks like my dog’s surgery has to be rescheduled, since it… was scheduled for today, and even though I checked with them over the phone 3 times that they were indeed open for Labor Day and got a confirmation text as recently as this past Saturday that it would be happening today… guess who was closed for Labor Day? Which… okay, lmao. I’m just saying, if I could sell a couple thousand copies of this book I could afford the fancy expensive vet down the street who wouldn’t run me around re: my appointments. Sigh. She’s okay, though, it’s not like urgent-urgent. She’s a very good dog.
Today was an email day, so just as a reminder, my email list is usually twice a month + the rare announcement that might happen once every 3-6 weeks, so I won’t be clogging up people’s inboxes. I think in perhaps 3-5 months I will create an archive of my emails for newer visitors, possibly if I end up adding a bunch more subscribers in a short amount of time. We’ll see!
