No Ideas Whatsoever...

Today I read a thread of discussion on Facebook that talked about self-publishing vs. traditional publishing. I have been planning on self-publishing up to this point. But after reading over that thread I have become absolutely terrified of it. Well... Not terrified but rather nervous. I am definitely rethinking my path.

Also I am having a hard time mapping my book. Or not having good enough notes. Or not knowing if I should name characters that aren't important. Basically HOW DETAILED SHOULD I BE?! Wish some authors read this blog. Guess I'll have to research instead of just having the answers handed to me. Dang.

A job I had been depending on getting fell through. I will make enough from my two part time jobs to pay bills but thats about it. Nothing really beyond that. Life's a real bugger sometimes.

Speaking of life being not that great, it may surprise you that I have begun trying not to complain so much when I'm talking to people. It's REALLY HARD. My life is in a really not great place right now. We're living with my parents which is great of them but... not ideal. We are falling farther and farther behind on bills until some income comes IN.  And... Wait wait I didn't mean to start complaining. SEE HOW EASY IT IS?!!! Grrr. Anyways. Yeah. Trying not to complain. It could be worse. I could live in a... house full of rats. And cockroaches. So yeah, not so bad. First world problems, eh?

I'm going running tonight. Haven't been for a couple days. I wasn't feeling great on Friday so I skipped that day and then Saturday instead of running I went for a ten mile bike ride. That was great exercise but I miss running so tonight will be good. Whelp. That's all folks.

Stupid picture:

Killing Tonight

I have been playing World of Warcraft like a fiend lately. Like a crazy unhealthy amount. I'm guessing it's me subconsciously trying not to think about the possibility of getting fired tomorrow. MAN this job is stressful. Also some money woes (phones shut off, bills piling up) that have been messing with me seriously.

Last night I had a dream about somebody I used to know. It really messed with my head. I have been feeling off all day because of it. Finally I convinced Miri to go up the canyon with me and I was able to unload about it which helped. Plus getting out of the house. Memories... bah.

I am slimming down again, thank heavens. I've been able to run about a mile three times a week and workout twice a week. Not close to what I was doing before the accident but its a start. Getting there.

Finally I just wrote an AWESOME scene in my book. A kidnap/carchase/gunfight/magical showdown. Nice.
