So, alert readers may have noticed that it’s been a minute since I’ve posted a blog here. These days of quarantine have been affecting all of us in different ways and for me it was becoming a daily struggle to think of new things to write each day, so I gave myself permission to step back from it for a while. My mood has been quite good: this wasn’t a decision made out of depression. Instead, it was more of a question of bandwidth: I’ve been grinding away on rewrites on the manuscript for my novel as well as polishing up a screenplay and that has occupied most of my writerly focus each day.
What does that mean for moving forward?
At present, all my energy is being directed towards preparations to self publish my novel. My goal is to release by the end of June and the good news is that it will be FREEEEE! As a matter of fact, I’m going to be repurposing this wordpress site as a platform on which to release chapters on a bi-weekly basis.
If you’re already a subscriber, consider yourself on The A List: you will be among the first to receive notice when the chapters are released. I’m excited to share my first “official” work of long-form fiction with you and I hope you will enjoy it, but I do realize that it’s not for everybody. Maybe you followed me because I wrote about running. Or maybe you followed me because I wrote about keto baking. Maybe you’re just not that keen on fiction, or you find sex, drugs, rock n’ roll, colorful language and poor taste to be off-putting. It seems only fair to give you a heads up about the changes ahead.
Thanks for reading! I hope you’ll stay tuned!
