I started writing the memoir. Then, I noticed something.<\/p>\n
It read like a newspaper report. This happened, then that happened. There’s no guts. No feeling. No reason<\/em>. No lesson. And when I cast back to try to remember, I don’t remember many feelings at the time. It was do this, do that, make sure this happens<\/em>. If anything, I was angry at my family, at his family, angry at the world. That’s all that I remember.<\/p>\n So I put it aside. I know I need to go deeper, and I don’t know if I’m ready for that.<\/p>\n Instead, I’m working through the book 90-Day Novel<\/em>, which requires me to write every day and answer five or six questions a day. Also weekly homework of contemplation on the world. I’m doing this for War Mage<\/em>, since I’m so stuck on that novel. I have to write 1600 words a day for NaNo. I’m lucky if I clear 1000. So I don’t think I’m going to win this year.<\/p>\n “The Joint” which is my new short story, probably won’t be available at the Author Expo on December 2, but “Self Defense” will be. And also Grimaulkin Tempted<\/em>! I have a special bundled price: Grimaulkin<\/em> and Grimaulkin Tempted<\/em> if bought together will go for $25, with a free copy of “Self Defense” AND a free card reading.<\/p>\n Well, there’s a free card reading with any purchase anyway.<\/p>\n Podcast will come out next weekend. Unsure of the topic, probably NaNoWriMo. Or spells. Or both!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you’re new to this page, welcome! I started writing the memoir.
