It's such a pain to try and try and go wide on so many Social platforms, with the different algorithms, and audiences, and all the other shit.

This author shit is hard!

Is it bad for me to keep working this much, this late into the night?

Yes.

If I took time to rest, would the thought monster that's been standing behind me for weeks, grinning while it salivates at the thought of dragging me into the dark finally get it's chance?

Also yes.

I hope one day I don't have to fight so hard to get the things I want in life.

I'm just tired, man.

Has my life been spiraling out of control for the last year?

Absolutely

But at least the colors are pretty when they spin

Going to be at the Krampus Market at the Concourse in Knoxville this Saturday with Jason Gilbert .

Come hang out, buy some books for yourself and your friends, and get the Krampus to put you in a sack and beat you. We could all use a little relaxation after all!

"Cat Boy trying to hit on me" was NOT something I had on my list of things I expected to walk into at work today.

Had my first appointment with my therapist today, and I already know that he is going to work well for me! He really met my energy, nade me feel comfortable immediately, and recognized my goals and how we can achieve them. I'm really excited to do the work and become the person I know I can be!

Something big happened yesterday!

I got an official diagnosis of ADHD!

This is something that's been known for a long time, but I'd never really been able to get the diagnosis to be medicated. I'm really excited to see where things go as I adjust to actually being treated!

I saw this screenshot on Facebook, and about halfway through the post I was writing, I realized maybe it would be better served as a blog post rather than a rant on the Face.😅

I'm an apprentice optician heading into the busiest time of the year. I also have 2 short stories to take through full production by the end of the year, work on a Kindle Vella series I want to have going by the first of the February, and the looming work on my 4th book.

So I'm fucking STRESSED!
