Right
So here is the stuff that needs doing. Proper life update in due course.
I'm laying out Cthulhu Apocalypse, my postapocalyptic horror thing. This is waiting for some stuff from someone else, so, although there's more stuff I can do, it's worth putting it on the backburner until that arrives. Good to take a break, even if just for a few days.
At some point, I also need to assemble a batch of limited editions of The Rending Box. This is quite fun: it involves stapling booklets and putting them in little boxes. Perhaps this afternoon. Once I've done those, they'll sell fairly quickly.
What else? I need to start revising Stealing Cthulhu, my Lovecraftian storytelling thing. I'd like this to be ready for GenCon, in August. Although this sounds silly, that's not long. If I revise during March, gather some comments from others during April, then lay it out during May, then I can print it in June and have the finished books at the start of July. There's not much leeway there. I need to get started.
There's also an online character generator thing, which I've agreed to do. And I'll be writing some stuff for a secret project I'm not allowed to talk about. And, of course, there is always psychology work to do, although not this week.
In situations like this, it's often worth thinking: what will make me money now? And what needs doing now? That leaves me, I think, with assembling The Rending Box (money now) and Stealing Cthulhu (needs doing now).
So, this week's job will be editing Stealing Cthulhu and assembling The Rending Box.
Thanks for helping me work that out. Otherwise, life is fine, thank you for asking.
