Well, what do you know? It's hard to focus on writing when you're in pain.

Today, I had someone tell me they liked A World Apart, and eagerly await the next chapter.

I think, and somewhat understand why, that people often think "oh no, I don't want to bug the author." I'm not sure what authors don't like to feel appreciated, but I'm not one of them. A little encouragement like that honestly goes a very long way in motivating me to keep going. If you like it and want more of it, say something. It really means something to hear that.

You know, it's funny how often I fluctuate in-between whether or not to continue/finish "A World Apart."

Right now I'm once again feeling a solid conviction to finish it.

I must confess, though, that these past few months I've been planning not to.

Well, it's been a long time since I've been around these parts! Those who've been following have seen I've had a bit of a crazy medical journey this summer, as soon as I wasn't terribly busy with college. Yikes. So, about that, and my activity here:

So, yeah, mortality is overrated. I'm going immortal, here.

And on that note... Well, no, actually, on a completely different note, I just thought I'd make an entry to say that I'm picking up the pace on A World Apart stuff. I'm falling back in love with it, which is great for me and those of you who are looking forward to next chapter.

Just felt like dropping a notification that the latest chapter of "A World Apart" is in the finalmost draft, so it's just around the corner.

The most wonderful season of cheer!

For today, we annually celebrate the birth of the Prince of Peace.

So, I really, really like my editor. The only thing is, he's gone on a mission right now, like I was going to be, except he's going to continue to be gone for a year and a little, and I find myself shying away from publishing my latest chapter draft with only one pre-reader and no editor. So I was wondering if anyone else would like to help? You'll need a google account (I use gdocs) to get permission. Of course, this does involve seeing some sawdust and rough edges, so to speak, so if you're
