On a more personal note, I’m listing here the “creative” projects I’m working on because I need to remind myself that I’m not useless.
- Daily Blog Project (cross-posted at my personal website and Medium)
- Going on 50 podcast (posted every 2 weeks at Soundcloud)
- Too Fine, a contemporary romance serial posted at Wattpad, updated weekly.
- Wolves of Harmony Heights, a long novel in the final stages of editing, expected publish date January 1st, 2017
- Wolves of Boston, a long novel that I’ve just barely started writing.
- [redacted] – another long novel that is almost done and will be submitted to a publisher this upcoming week.
- Drawing practice, which desperately needs to be ramped up to be done every day, even if only for 15 minutes but preferably longer.
- Dancing …okay, I’m not doing this at all, but oh I really miss dancing.
There are other things lying around, such as about five other novels in various stages of “being started” which translates to having 5k – 40k words written; two fanfic WIPs that are essentially novellas that I have not updated in two years; ideas for other podcasts that would be too time intensive to actually start (Liberal’s Almanack, specifically); and updating my grief/atheist blog (wayyyy overdue). I’m toying with the idea of a patreon, specifically for my drawings/art, but that seems pretentious of me, and it would require a sincere commitment to produce art. Dunno.
I’ve still got my day!job of course, and my dog Keely to walk and cuddle.
Time. I need more time. I feel like I’m not accomplishing much, compared to what is on my “to-do” list. I really do need more time.
Or, actually, money. MONEY = FREEDOM. I need to focus on that. Get stories published, work on my art. I don’t know what/when something will strike, but I do have utmost confidence that it will happen. I just gotta keep plugging along, doing what I can. Ref. list above.
*sighhhhhhhhhhh*
