I would love for this to be one of those posts where I put up my checklist and everything is crossed off, but that's not going to happen. Not now, most likely not ever because that is not me. It may drive me insane, but what can you do. Last week was a little messy, in between baking dozens of cookies for my boyfriend's potluck at work and going through years of crap that my dad brought home from storage, I haven't had a moment to think. But I did a quick flash of inspiration yesterday night, so that's why this post is going to be short and sweet. Let's just say it involves lots of index cards and some familiar characters.
Anyway, the blog might be under construction sometime this week, because I definitely want to update this thing. But that involves a lot of research and learning and practice...I don't know if I have the patience for that this week. I also hope to send my manuscript to Kindle so I can look through it and mark out any mistakes, yet I have to do the table of contents first. Do you understand how tedious that thing is? Sigh. I hated making them in school, whenever we wrote stories or had to write essays (later on in school). And this is a big one because if I mess this up, the entire Kindle ebook is a mess.
There's also the little problem of social media. Sometimes I look at my Twitter feed and I just can't. People on there are argumentative and rude sometimes, and I tend to have a short fuse. But I also understand that it's a necessary part of an author's existence. Hopefully I can find some good people on there.
I think that's about everything. The next few days are going to be a whirlwind of cleaning and getting things organized for a later date, but hopefully I'll find some time to get this all going. Now I have to go and stop my cat from eating the tape off of a box. Sadly, that's a normal occurrence around these parts.
