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.

Being Naughty

I am supposed to be working on the manuscripts, but I needed a break. I will need fresh covers for the four books to spew out over the next few weeks. They are being tweaked to make better Kindle edition through Amazon, meaning everyone who already bought the Kindle edition will be automatically upgraded when they are uploaded. But I found a font I like and thought I'd do the new covers to follow the dictates of the current fashion in "Good Cover Design." I think they brand me as the author, the four books as belonging together and view well at the small size, the button people will use to pick the book out of a series. I continue to work on the text, corrected the typographic errors I mentioned in the previous post. It looks like all four books will go up in short order. And I work on new pieces when not escaping from my editing typography or designing new covers.
