I cook, I play music, I paint, I read ... and every now and again I might write something.

    Status of The Road

    When I first started the story that now bears the title Traveling A New Road, I was in a much different place, mentally and literally. I believe I began writing this about four years ago. I had been co-writing with a very dear friend of mine, and having quite a nice time doing so, to be honest. However, something inside felt unfulfilled -- I wanted to write something that was my own. I

    Busy times ahead

    Back in November, I got moved to another job within my company, and for a couple of months that was going pretty well. Then, at the end of January, I got a promotion to terminal manager, which is requiring me to pack up and move a couple of hundred miles away while commuting back and forth each week in the interim.

    New chapter Sunday

    It may seem like a long while between updates, but this is really the only way I can maintain a schedule, and have a decent buffer to maintain that schedule. My work has been in flux, and I am adapting to a new schedule, but it shouldn't affect anything going forward.

    Thanks to those that are reading and following along, and I hope I can continue to provide a good quality story for you.

    Following through

    As I had mentioned previously, I was waffling over whether to publish a story I had been working on over here. I've had a few people read it, and it seems to be going over okay, with some minor corrections and edits.

    The first chapter is in the pipeline and will go live shortly. I plan to update on a monthly schedule, and I have a decent buffer written to aid me in that goal.

    Slushing away

    When we last left our intrepid "writer," he was looking at an old story he had started writing and was considering cleaning it up a bit and putting it out for the general public to read. Understandably, he was nervous about this, because this was the longest story he had written by far (without a co-author) and contained elements that were sure to provoke ire among many core groups of readers.

So I'm a (sort of) author now... · 10:41pm Jun 14th, 2018

For many years, I've been a reader on this site. I've read dozens upon dozens of stories here, and have always been somewhat envious of how easy many of these authors made writing look. I admit to feeling somewhat intimidated, also, looking at some the stuff I had written and never daring to publish any of it.

And then, today, after much prodding, I submitted my first story to the site, and was quite surprised to see it was approved. I was delightfully surprised and quite glad to see that others liked what I had written. Perhaps soon, I can muster up the courage to write another, which I hope will be as well received.
