The general lack of updates from me has been thanks to a super crazy existence all of a sudden. \u00a0Seems like the sun comes out and so do the opportunities…<\/p>\n
Among other things (I won’t discuss them here, as they aren’t relevant, but they mostly involve Jake’s Big Projects) I’ve been conversing with a local talent agency, who have a literary agent under their umbrella, and potentially I have representation for\u00a0A God Grown Old<\/em>. It’s certainly not for sure, and it may turn out that I’d rather represent myself especially if I go the e-publishing route only – but it’s really, really exciting. \u00a0And it’s a step towards fulfillment of my ultimate childhood dream (besides visiting Australia).<\/p>\n I managed to write just over 5k words on Sunday before deciding I should probably relax a bit, and though I haven’t written anything since, I’ve read over what I wrote (while under the influence of a beer and things) and it’s not terrible. \u00a0It is, at least, a start I’m proud enough of to press on.<\/p>\n I’m planning to write 1500 words per day, which at my current estimate will give me about 90 days to write this damn thing, and that’s if I don’t go over any days (or skip them, shhhhhh). A first draft in my hands by mid-August? \u00a0I can get excited for that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The general lack of updates from me has been thanks to a super crazy existence all of a sudden. \u00a0Seems like the sun comes out and so do the opportunities… Among other things (I won’t discuss them here, as they aren’t relevant, but they mostly involve Jake’s Big Projects) I’ve been conversing with a local … <\/p>\n
