Blowin' off the dust
So, it's been six weeks since I came over and said anything.
Uh, hi.
I'm considering what to do here. I've got my 'professional' blog over at JasonArnett dot com and I'd intended to keep this journal as more of a personal feelings sort of place. I think that's still valid, but what I'm considering is that I may not have time to do both. I tend to overcommit and the last few weeks have definitely been FULL to bursting.
I've got to finish the first draft of my next Actionopolis book (and you can find the site for the first one at Agent of Danger) this weekend so that I can begin the wait for notes. I've got a novel I'm only about a third of the way through that I'm anxious to get back to writing and then there's the holidays.
Typically I get time off from my day job during this time and that's the case this year, too, but I've got an awful lot of stuff to do that needs doing while I can put together three or four hours in a row to work on them. I'm trimming out my comic book collection and selling off some stuff. I need to unload a bunch of magazines and books and papers that I'll never touch again. (All of that was stuff that I SWORE I would need later on. I'm not a hoarder, just a packrat and I'm trying to reform, okay?) Then there's some time I need to read, too.
My family would like to see me, I'm sure.
So forgive me if I dust this off today and then don't get back for a while. Since there are only a couple of readers here (and I'm one of them) I don't think it'll be a big deal but I wanted to get something here for those folks who have this journal in a reader or otherwise check in. I'm sure I'll be back sometime this week, but I was sure I'd be farther ahead on some other things, too, that are somewhere off in the distance.
