Progress Report # 2





Hello everyone, I got another progress report for you.

Unfortunately the job I just got had to do a lay off. I saw it coming, but it still sucks. Luckily I rock interviews so I got another job lined up already. Still this is just another hit to my focus. 

I feel like for whatever reason finishing this book has become a herculean labor. Hard as it is, I am finding myself up to the task. I had some great sessions this past week. I will not be held down, lol. 

I am learning how adaptive of a person I am. I am also learning to push the doubt aside. 

My focus lately is on how to get my name out there. I have a Facebook, a Twitter and a blog. These I have used to get the sales I have so far. I have been thinking it is time to add a new one to the list. 

I have enjoyed blogging a lot and the biggest thing I have enjoyed has been connecting with people. So to further that, I am going to make use of my YouTube channel. 

I will focus mostly on writing and my process much like the blog, but I will also have some other things thrown in. I guess I could say it better myself in this vid. 



Anyway, what is everyone else up to? Hope you guys enjoy the vid. As always, have fun and keep writing.

Purpose: To share and encourage. Writers can express doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds! To join click HERE!


So as I finally come close to the end of my first draft for this latest book, I find myself looking back on all that went into it. The two previous installments for sure, but also a lot of life.

What I mean by that is a lot has happened to me between writing the first book in this series and now. I wish I could say that all of it has been good, but honestly while there were great moments, this has been a very hard and trying few years.

Still, I got to meet great people, like my amazing CP, S.K. Anthony, my wonderful and insightful editor, Janie. I have all of you wonderful people coming to my blog and giving me hope and sustaining my interest. 

I've had some great personal things happen as well and while the bad often seems to outweigh the good it is a true statement that, the light shines through. 

My love for writing pushes me, but it is you wonderful people that offer a refuge from my worries and teach me so much. 

So this IWSG I just want to thank you all for being you, keep that stuff up won't you?

Also I wanted to let everyone know about a cool new website and video up on a friend's page. Check them out, these guys are fun to watch and the website sounds really cool. So click here and go check it out, for real, do it...no seriously click it. 

Anyway, I hope everyone is well. As always have fun and keep writing.
