Hello,
I've been away working my butt off. We've had a stressful project at work and it's caused me to work a lot of over time. Every night I come home exhausted and wake each morning still tired. There is a lot of mental stress involved, trying to make sure everything is correct.
You'd think the silver lining with all this over time is that I would be able to save for that editor. Wrong. Too much money going out to bills. I feel like I'm working for nothing.
I shouldn't complain. A co-worker is salary and all the extra time he spends at home and work on this project counts as free labor. At least I can pay for bills. Still, it would be nice to squirrel away something for that editor. Or maybe buy one of those figures I want.
I guess I'm just over tired.
There is a sliver of good news, however. After three weeks of hard time at work, I stole fifteen minutes to write some of book two. I haven't been able to start something new yet, but I'm just happy to write anything at all.
Sometimes that 15 mins is all that counts!!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember if I've offered before, but I'm happy to take a free and non-professional look at your work, if you want. I do love some vampires. Maybe a fresh pair of eyes could help?
Keep working hard, it's going to pay off one day for both of us, I just know it!

Thanks for the advice. I'm just kinda down lately but I'm sure I'll pick up eventually.
