This update won’t be too long because February didn’t go very well and I’ve been drowning in responsibility.
Beneath the Ashes 2 and Our Own Way 3 Audio were officially released in February.
I came very close to having Goblin Girls Do It Better II out, but unfortunately February was kind of a train wreck. Lots of little things kept distracting or derailing me from getting my job done and honestly I’m behind on everything. This is exactly why I didn’t get around to Shelter From the Storm even a tiny bit. I don’t even think I opened up the document one time for the whole month. It’s becoming obvious that starting it was a mistake. I really want to get work done on it but basically this is how I function as a writer:
Ensure that MAIN PROJECT, whatever that might be, gets X amount of words written per day. If that happens, then work on SECONDARY PROJECT, whatever that might be, can happen. What fucks me up so much and derails me so often is that I can’t get that first part done. And if I can’t get that first part done, then my brain feels like there’s literally no point in moving onto anything else.
If I’m working on Goblin Girls Do It Better II and I don’t hit my chosen word count before going to bed, then nothing else gets done that day, because why would I work on something else when I SHOULD be working on Goblin Girls Do It Better II?
I’ve heard several suggestions and tried several things, but ultimately this is simply how I work. I know I have something wrong with me, probably something related to OCD or ADHD. Honestly, I’d probably get more done if I did Goblin Girls on one day and then another project on the next day and back-and-forth it, but I just…can’t? I don’t know, I just can’t. I have to keep momentum going on a project. I thought maybe I could do something more casually, hence Shelter From the Storm, but that just doesn’t seem to be a thing.
It’s kind of killing me.
All that being said, I am going to try very hard AGAIN to get my shit together this month and produce more and produce quickly. I’m honestly glad I’m in my 30s still because this shit is going to stress me into a heart attack if it’s still like this in my 50s.
Anyway, the month ahead:
GOBLIN GIRLS DO IT BETTER II will be out very soon.
BENEATH THE ASHES 2 audio is being worked on, no idea when it’ll be out though.
OUR OWN WAY 4 will be the main writing focus for this month. It should be out sometime in April.
UNTITLED COUGAR HAREM will get a proper reveal this month. I’ll write a blog post about it, reveal the title, and begin posting early access to my Patreon.
