Book Ordering Drama

With conventions coming up, I need to order books. The problem is you always want your newest stuff to be included, which means you need to have it ready. If you are like me and EVERYTHING always takes longer than you thought it would, it can feel like you are running behind no matter what you do. Add in that Amazon is taking 3-4 weeks to ship and print books, you can start to panic. I should have all my standard books ready by Dragoncon, but trying to get the epic fantasy ready to go might not happen. And I will be on the border of tears if that happens.

Oh well. all I can do is try and get it all entered as fast as I can. Fingers crossed.

To Do List Overload

I love my lists. I do. But I have so much going on that I’m not even getting to write down all the things I need to do.

The big garage sale is this weekend, so maybe some of my mom’s sewing stuff will be dealt with once and for all. It would be nice to get the clutter in that area decreased greatly. Not to mention I really would like to create the home gym. I need to do some weight work and we need the space.

Everything else is moving along faster than I can keep up. I mean I know how fast weeds grow, does everything else have to move at the same speed? Oh well. I’m trying to write, trying to organize, and all I want is a nap.

Ever forward.

Hurrah!

I have a website.

I know, you’re like so what. Everyone has a website. This is possibly true, I haven’t checked out yours so I don’t know for sure, but after 2 years I finally have one. Yes I’m slow. Your point?

What this means is I’ll have a space to talk to you about writing, what is going on in my stories, and when you’ll get something new from me. Hopefully this year it will be more often than it has been.

It also means I’m working on moving Bad Ash Publishing to a publisher that will publish other people’s work. That is still multiple months off, but it is getting closer.

Otherwise I have stories to write and publish, so you can read them. TTFN!
