August Already?

I had ideas. I had plans. Things that were going to ready and on Amazon by August.

Reality has gotten in my way.

Again.

Anybody else?

Healing

Real, physical healing. For the past three months, I've been involved with a fight to keep my right leg. Literally. It has happened a couple of times before but a bump to the inside of my right calf did not heal, and did not heal, and grew, and opened. It looked like some cougar sized animal had just taken a bite out of my leg. And it became infected, turning the whole lower leg red and angry. The actual wound was under the open part, and the rim of the real wound just upleg from the 5.7cm by 4.5cm  open area three new wounds appeared, joined together to form one large crescent shape wound over the existing chasm. I've been through this before and, thanks to some people I know with experience, I know I would have been able to lose a leg, stay sane and sober. But I don't want to. Whenever a doctor uses the word "amputation" I perk right up, pay attention, and follow directions. At this point, I should mention that it was not painful. It should have been, ...

Adjusting to the New Planet

Going to the new week feels right. on the new Planet Joe I'm focused on a specific area - one of the five I was already juggling. But the focus is different. Monday was Day Joe and I focused on things around the house. My phone (Galaxy S8) is no longer charging - direct wire or wireless charger - so I may suddenly lose that connection. I have the old iPhone SE which I think will work - I'd have to take out the sim card yadda yadda yadda. I don't know if the SE is modern enough to work on the system. If the S8 craps out. And I still have about 9 payments to make on it. (I'm adjusting to the phone but really do not like the side touch - if you breathe on it wrong (like if your mouth was near the phone in a phone call) it opens an app. Sometimes it sends a message in fluent Gobbledegook, which gets embarrassing. But that took a lot of my focus on Monday. Tuesday was Non-Fiction so I did some work on the Patreon Video, which they seem to require to open the full P...

Disruption in Service

I don't go into great detail on my medical stuff these days. People don't like that. And it is distracting. Let's just say that as the result of my most recent medical - 'focus' - I am distracted from the speed completion of my projects. I refuse. Which is not to say that I am not working on things. Just not things as quickly as I would like. Something every day, no matter what. That means I am doing the next project, SONG OF ORPHANS, while I am waiting on final edit pass on CLIMBING THE SPIRAL MOUNTAIN from the acknowledge editor in Connecticut, and I am continuing work on the Jorune projects - SEGMENT: SHO-CAUDAL #13 (and final) and the ORFA: JORUNE write up. Every day. A few hours on one of those. Or the marketing side of all of it. And I have more that could be plugged in for activity not related to these four. Like - art. Drawing for the cover of COLLECTED DANSTEAD TRAVELLER. And a new interest - pour art. Using liquid acrylic in a diluting medium...
