Two and a half years
It's been a long time since I bothered updating this blog, and I wish I could say a lot has happened.
In terms of books written, I suppose it has. I finished 11 books in that time span, branching into some areas that I've never explored before:
- some semi-romantic comedy
- YA
- a horror novel
- historical fiction with a steampunk & fantasy bend
In terms of writing career progress, not so much. I don't think I have submitted a story to a magazine or tried to find a publisher for one of my unpublished books in that time frame. Some of that is because that kind of work takes away time that I would rather spend writing; some of it is probably a poor attempt to avoid rejection.
I am hoping to change that in 2020 and 2021. I have a backlog of editing to do, an overly ambitious writing plan, and maybe I'll start actually trying to invest in trying to convince people to buy my books.
