So, here I am.
I am breathing.
I went to Jamaica and got a sunburn. It's peeling. So. Not. Fun. Now, sadly, I am home. Slaving away at the job that is Hell and working on an anthology that will be self-published as an e-collection on Amazon before the month is out. It's almost done. I've got one story to finish edits on. Cover is done, back copy is done. Going through final edits one everything else starting today and through the weekend.
It's short. Five stories. I have no perspective. It feels mediocre. There is only one story that I rather like. This is not unusual for me. I NEVER like anything that I write until years later and then I can step back and say, hey, that's not so bad after all. However, everything that I've written has been fandom related. This is a different kind of difficult. It's also very embarrassing. Rather like standing up in church and flashing my underwear. So, I'll be publishing under a pen name. I'll let you know what it is when it's done.
Wow. I can't believe that I'm actually going to do this.
Let me say, though. This is obviously not a project intended for fame and money or glory. I love writing. Publishing something is on the bucket list and since my ego is in the toilet with my writing even though intellectually I know that I'm a decent writer, I figure this will guarantee me that one thing, at least, gets crossed off the list. And I've always wanted to do it. So. There you go.
LJ, I hope you're well!! I've been MIA and I am LOST in this whole social media environment. I feel adrift. *sigh*
Congrats to![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
my_daroga and lettered and their third Hello Earth production of Star Trek in the park. I'm sure that it was awesomely amazing. I wish I could have been there.
Also, of note, I brought back coffee flavored Rum. It's way too tasty to be believed. It's orgasmic when paired with Rum Cream.
Things you know about me ... I can be such a lush. HEY! Aren't all great writers alcoholics?! Maybe I really am on my way.
