Oh Look… a Saddle

Posted by on Sep 30, 2018 in Blog Posts

I guess I’ll hop back onto the saddle.  At the end of June, I finalized a deal for a home.  While doing that, I was working my way through some of the heaviest volume of work I’ve had in a long time (normal job, not writing).  So with 10 to 12 hour days, I moved, hung drywall, stripped paint, sealed my deck, ran new circuits, wired outlets, hardwired my entire home with ethernet, and performed various other activities around the house.  As of today, I can say life is pretty stable (but I still don’t have a living room).  In that time, a buddy took a week to visit me for a mini writers workshop.  I wrote for the first time in a month or two and put down a solid 8,000 words in my 9th manuscript (manuscript 8 is on hold due to complexity).  So, with all of the dust settling and work moving to a normal level, I am going to begin the process of getting back into the swing of things.  I keep adding in activities, and as of now, I am up to working out most of the week, cooking healthy, and reading everyday.  The next pieces I need to stabilize my life is practicing my Italian and writing.  The goal is to have Manuscript 9 done by the end of this year and start working on manuscript 8 again before 2019.  So, expect a lot more blog posts in the coming months… I think I am back.
