Whew.
So, I am still alive! I am finding it difficult to maintain the energy to communicate in my usual formats (i.e., here) because it's exhausting trying to be ME every day. I am trying to make phone calls to the congress critters and aid the resistance movement...but damn. Every day, something else hits the fan and makes me go "WHAT? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?" and...
...gah. I don't wanna live on this planet any longer. I keep trudging along, but I swear, I envy my BFF who spends most of his days asleep due to the meds he's on. I'd much rather be sleeping, lately. It's too much, some times. And I feel like I'm using a spritzer on an inferno, and I am often sad.
All that said, I'm trudging on with my plans. Books should be up on Amazon this week. I'm planning announcements as soon as they are, and I'm hoping to add to the list. I'm working on the next 2 tarot books, hoping to get one finished and ready for publishing in Feb. And then the next will be put on the schedule for March.
Patreon continues apace. I WISH I was a better marketer. -.- I know I could be reaching more people, but I don't know how. It is frustrating and makes me sad. But I will continue to beg my Patrons to pimp me, and hope that someone else hears about it and joins. I feel like I should put an upper limit on it, like "if [goal] doesn't happen by [date] I will stop," but I am enjoying the cards, and exploring the gods and goddesses. And it feels arbitrary to do that. I'm going to try to streamline the process, so it isn't costing me in time and energy as much. If I can do that, then I'll just keep doing it. If not, I'll look at what changes I need to make in order to streamline. Because that will make a huge difference. I want to get back to work on the writing.
Speaking of the writing, I should get back to that. The tarot books need some edits. Oh, and my tarot business needs pimping. Wish me luck.
