Always Writing [and reading]

I’ve been pushing hard, committing long hours towards my novel. Every extra minute that I can scrape up after my two jobs, classes, other writing projects, and the rest of my life, I’m dedicating towards research and the creation of beautiful words. I say beautiful words because I have become a man who loves words. That is the best part of not being involved with a woman on any sort of level at this point in my life, I quite simply have the time!

So here it is, here’s my plan. I’m going to post the updated and edited version of the same chapter [Shelby Chapter] with an additional character or two. I won’t be using the title of the book until the Amazon Upload, and that is still months away. I do love the endless research, although, as it turns out, I will need more time than I had originally estimated. I refuse to rush something that is so very important to me.

Thank you, everyone, for your time, and for all of the words that you write. I’ll always find the time to read your words.
