I'm Not Missing!
If I were smart, I'd say that you haven't gotten a newsletter in a while because I'm respecting your time an attention by not making you read something that is just a bunch of words about nothing and wasting your time.
That is true, but also I kind of forgot I had a newsletter for a little while.
My bad.
I'm back though! I edited and reposted all of JaLF on Reddit for free, you can start it here if you want. I took the original edition down from KDP, and will someday publish this "revised and expanded" edition, but I don't know when and whether it'll be with KDP.
I've been thinking quite a bit about what I want out of this hobby and how I can get it, which means looking at the way I was doing things before and re-considering them. It's one of those things where I never feel "ready" enough to do something, which means I should probably just do something. But also, money is always an issue, especially now, but that's not news to anyone, so we'll see what happens. Regardless I'm still writing every day, and spending time on a whole new book - one that I'm going to try not posting serially (eek) - and I'll post updates here every other month or so.
Thanks for signing up to my newsletter! You reading my words is what gives me the confidence to keep going at this.
