Not much to update. My internet, TV, and phone all went dead Saturday night...so was pretty much out of pocket until Monday afternoon. It's amazing how helpless one feels at only 2 days of down communications, LOL. I realized things are way too interconnected with the internet!
I got some rewriting of Lifeguard Gets Wet. Sunday tried opening it up and got a bunch of errors about not being able to connect online, not updating my last update, and all sorts of crap that I actually was scared the damn thing got lost. Luckily when I logged into my tablet I could see everything (used my phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot) so it was something silly with my cloud drive and unable to connect. Again, damn internet dependency. I decided I didn't want to screw anything up so ended up closing it and leaving it... :/
This weekend going to be out of town...son is graduating, and then moving up here. Going to be a major change in my life. Have been living single for almost 12 years...and although the kids have been up to visit and whatnot, this is somewhat permanent. Gives me a chance to talk him into college though...he wants to take a year off, which is fine, but I'm only hoping it's only a year.
I'm hoping to have some time to write though. Locked up in a hotel room for most of the weekend, doubt there will be a lot to do in the outskirts of south Georgia, hehehe.
Did receive another "irate" anonymous comment. They stated I have a pathological issue with finishing anything, since all my stories are awaiting updates and I haven't posted anything in over a year. Again, to reiterate, this is a HOBBY. Considering I work 6 am to almost 6pm Monday through Friday, I don't have time nor the desire to write on weekdays, so that only leaves weekends. And there is more to my life than writing stories...which, again, is a HOBBY. So if I'm not in the mood, I don't write. If family is visiting, I don't write. If I have car problems, house problems, or any other type of real life issue, chances are, I'm not going to be writing. Hell, the internet, TV, and phone were down this weekend and writing got tabled. I can understand fans want to see the next chapter of their story. But it's a HOBBY.
Right now, my focus is on Lifeguard Gets Wet, because it is a PAID commission. I will be getting money out of it. But even then, I'm limited to weekends and my various moods. My full-time, six-figured paying job is NOT writing, so until somebody starts offering to sending me regular PayPal installments, you'll just have to live with my capricious whims of fancy... :p
