h_h_gothrykkeToday's update is a just a spot it before it flies by.
I posted a scene I removed from the final draft I am working on of An Average Joe...In The Beginning. Things are going slow because I am still so stressed in RL and something else I realized. I am depressed because of all the work I put in the first draft and I had to leave almost all of that out. I am keeping the first prologue, edited, of course, but the rest is just the short story version of the novel series. Very depressing to realize 120k/1 year's worth of work is basically worthless.
On the other hand, I am working on the assumption I can release the first novel in the series on the 2 year anniversary of the original posting, March 17th, 2015. Cross your fingers, people, cross your fingers. The work I'm keeping is good, but the stuff I keep deleting is less than sub-par because I am forcing myself to write that shit. I need to get the shit out of the way in order to focus on the work I want to really keep.
A very slow process at this point.
Check in with me again in 100 days and see how much further I am. I should have 2 chapters finished by then. *headdesk*

I am working on more master posts for stories I have in the works. Also, the long nose monkeys on my tv are the ugliest thing outside of a Jimmy Durante caricature. Man, these things are butt-ugly. I might have to write something about aliens eating them to get them out of my nightmares.
