A much-needed day off

Dear Diary,

So, I’m writing this entry on my phone in bed. Rebecca’s bed. While she makes me a sammich. We just finished watching the J.K Rowling story on Lifetime, and, I’m not gonna lie, it gave me all kinds of feels. That she started out as a single mother on welfare and kept at her dream long enough and with enough tenacity to see it come to fruition is…inspiring.

And humbling.

See, writing has always been a bit of a game to me. I never truly threw myself into it like I should, partly because of real-life distractions being too…well…distracting, and partly because I always saw it as more of a hobby and not a career.

That movie was the catalyst for a paradigm shift for me.

I can’t wait to attack my writing tomorrow.

That being said, I’m glad I took the day off. I needed it. And not only that, but my loved ones needed it too. I was falling behind on my spider monkey quota with my brother, and my orgasm dry spell was getting pretty bad. Which might have caused me to saturate my newest upcoming stories with a little too much sex. Maybe. 😀

The only real author thing I did today was re-approve the audiobook version of Programming Sophia after my narrator fixed whatever issues Audible said it had. I don’t know what the problem was (that’s what I pay her for), but she got right on it and took care of everything. Oh, and I was informed by Amazon that after I changed the categories of the paperback version of The Secret Life of Miel that the inside has blurry text or something. So they want me to fix it so they can re-publish it. Never mind the fact that it’s one of my oldest stories and I have no idea what blurry text they’re talking about. I’ll deal with it tomorrow.

Hopefully, your day was as relaxing and enlightening as mine. Beautiful things are coming this year, #Alexaliens. I promise. Just wait and see…

#Alexa
