The bittersweet moment has arrived

Posted at
 

Chapter 60 for Book Two is in the queue. That's it. All done. The crying, wailing, and gnashing of teeth may now commence.

Okay, got that out of your systems? Yes, there will be a Book Three. I have to finish writing it. It'll get posted on here when I have enough of a buffer that I can stay ahead of things, and it'll be available on Bookapy when it's done. No, I have no idea how long that'll be.

In my holy crap, I've got a lot of things to do list - which includes writing the rest of Book Three - I have going back through all of Book One with the edits Jim has done for me and I've never actually had time to do. Something that won't take a lot of time is to also go through Book Two, take my totally revised chapters with the reader fixes, and then make that into new files for download on Bookapy, so everyone will have fully edited and as close to mistake-free copies as I can give them. Then do with Book One, too.

Keep in mind that I have to do my writing in my free time. I've spent four hours per day so far this week going through Assessor's Office records to figure out my marketing. I finally got the sticker for the back window of my car, so that's on now, in addition to my door magnets. I quite literally finished the 45 hours of my CE on the last day of 2020, so once they get things figured out with the Real Estate Commission, I'll lose the Provisional Sales Associate license, and be a regular Sales Associate.

Also I'm working on my business Fakebook page, and getting my business website tweaked (I've got it up and running), and getting all of the expenses and other things associated with that, which takes time, too.

Oh, and that's in addition to running the craft business. I do laser engraving. I've owned a commercial grade laser engraver for about ten years now. It's a 70 watt CO2 laser, so I personalize wood gifts, engrave glasses, and other items for a local business which they use for THEIR marketing. I average about 100 pieces every couple of months. Their national office likes what I make, and if things work out, I'll be supplying marketing materials to all of 42 of their locations, in 18 states, instead of just locally.

Is that enough? 😊
