I enjoy writing. If I think of anything clever to say I'll update this.

    It's been a very intense year for me. I've been fortunate enough to have been working this entire time and was promoted twice since March. This was the cause of the delay in this story. I've been learning what it takes to lead people at work, but also how to manage my own self care while being able to care for others.

    Completed

    I have finally concluded “The Phoenix King”. It went on longer than I ever thought it would and probably didn’t need to be so long to begin with. Although, I had a great amount of fun writing every chapter of it and felt that it had literal arcs that focused on different things to keep it fresh. Or at leas to hope it did.

    Smolder 1k

    Where to begin, because I know where I had left off. Early October I started a new job for the government, one could call it a career, but after a few weeks they felt that I was better suited for a higher position. This led me to becoming a 'Lead' within a department, which meant reading a large "SOP" (Standard Operating Procedure) and doing a lot of overtime to get ready for the position. It

    New Beginnings

    These last two weeks I had dedicated myself to getting this new job, revamping my resume and going to two interviews for the position. I am happy to say that they have offered it to me which means I am over the moon at the moment on the possibilities this affords me. Full time, 401k, health insurance, paid vacation, and on top of all that it is a government job. I feel very fortunate for this

    Smoldering It Over 3rd Anniversary and Smolder 900

    Today marks the third anniversary of Smoldering It Over being uploaded and coincidentally happens to be the same day that it has reached nine-hundred views. I feel like I simply repeat myself over and over again when I say how humbled I am to have reached this milestone, but it couldn't be more to the truth. I was excited to know that thirty-four viewers had taken a glance at it and left a

Smolder 700 · 4:34pm Feb 28th, 2018

Apologies for the extra week it took to post the next chapter of The Phoenix King, but during that week Smoldering It Over had reached the seven hundred mark in views which is something I am extremely thrilled by.

To everyone who has recently read this story, thank you for taking an interest in it, and giving it a chance. To everyone else that is still reading the latest journey of Smolder, thank you for sticking around and I hope to finish this story soon.

I can only promise that future stories will be shorter. Although, I feel that the moment I start writing the next story I will forgo that promise and make another epic, or at least try to.

700 is truly humbling. There are plenty of stories out there, much shorter ones, that tell a lot with fewer words, and are even more deserving of a reader's time. So thank you for sharing some of that time with me.
