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

'May' I be excused? · 7:18am May 31st, 2018

Well I have nothing to say other than that I am continually inconvenienced by life in general. While fully recovering from my illness earlier this month, there had been a sudden change in management at my job to where the supervisor was fired abruptly and we were without one for quite a while. This literally compounded with three associates quitting and I being prompted to a assistant manager position. Which basically meant working 12 hours a day for three weeks early into May, training new hires, and so on and so forth. With things settling back down, I find myself once again with some free time, and coming back to finish this story.

It was an unexpected hiatus, I do feel terrible about not even posting one chapter in weeks, but my hands were tied. What it amounted to was me being able to really hash out some pages between breaks, connect a few dots, and really see this story ending within a handful of chapters. In the meantime I will attempt to get back on track with weekly uploads, but in light of my absence I will posting two or three chapters over the next few days as an apology for the wait. I hope everyone is well in both mind and body, as I can honestly say that am feeling better now that I am writing again.
