...where we came in?
Obscure reference, I know.
I feel like Nero, playing his fiddle, while around me, all of Rome burns.
Life is good...for me. My publisher FINALLY started editing my novel. RocKaiju is plowing through the process. This damn thing better be ready by the end of the year. If I go to MAGFest without production copies, I'm going to be pissed. Not-signed-with-this-publisher-any-longer kind of pissed.
Writing is going well in general. RocKaiju 2 is about a third done. Everything else is coming along. I'm slowly building up the backlog of short stories for my site, and making good headway on my project for next year.
Given that I'm just now writing what will go live in January, and that I have a five-tier production process, it will take more than a year before I start getting any breathing room. I'll spend 2018 rushing episodes through production so that I'll have them ready for release. Still, I'm confident it will be fun.
I find it interesting how many writers talk about their projects in terms of 'fun'. Many talk about their audiences and their hoped responses. Not invalid at all, but still. I want to enjoy what I'm writing. That's my first goal. Everything after that is gravy.
Hopefully lucrative gravy, but gravy none the less.
Training is going well. I just cut a whole lot of stuff from my routine and have focused considerably. I feel like maybe I'm back on track, though I'm not sure what I'm back on track for.
All is good. I play my ditty, while around me, flames.
