Happy Turkey day and Writing will slow. · 6:43pm Nov 29th, 2019
So, I know I'm a day late, but Happy Thanksgiving to all you American Equestrians.
My news is simple. I was suspended at my job today pending investigation because of someone calling in and being very agressive , i was still really sick, and i accidentally tried to finish my sentences instead of letting him just walk all over me, then the call suddenly disconnected while he asked for a supervisor.
Gonna be blunt, don't remember it and going to plan for the worst and look for other work. I will not air all my grievances about work here, because that's not what you're here for and there's a minor chance the reviewers could maaaaybe look here to see how I am handling the situation. Suffice to say I just need to make it to May when fiance graduates and we presumably move to find other work that makes use of his Masters degree.
So what will this mean for my stories? More time means more writing yes? Not exactly. I was doing a lot of editing/writing/cleanup/etc at work between calls, using a certain workaround. While yes, I can write at home, I have a different mindset and am easily distracted where at work, I'm focused and progress. I may experiment with options regarding avoiding this trend, but being honest with myself it is unlikely.
The good news is that Derby Horse is already completed and after this week where I posted more continuously, I'll be releasing chapters on Sunday and Wednesday, making it be completed by the new year (fully expecting to post extra or wrap up on Christmas, cause why not!). Training a Princess is still ongoing, as I've been noticing there's a distinct lack of examples on what she's being trained on, and will need to find a way to correct it or find a better fitting title for the story so I don't mislead my readers (ironically it was my intent to do so from the outset, but scorch has had a very hard time giving specifics on what, and anything i want to come up with should be approved by him to stay consistent in his world).
So again, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Hearthswarming Eve, and I hope to land on my hooves again soon, even if it means going to the one heavy-sales based call center in the area. I have said in real life outside of work scenarios that I'm a tough little bitch and won't let myself struggle for long. I'm no longer without support, I have my friends, my family (both chosen and a few blood-related), and my health. I'm a hell of a lot better off than I was 6 years ago when I was fighting homelessness for nearly 2 years, no family (that i knew of. blood told me they would have helped if they knew), and no support system in place. Enjoy what you have while you have it readers, and take care of yourselves.
