Gettin' Stuff Done
Mar. 23rd, 2025 06:08 pmToday I actually got around to editing Comfort Food, which was a FREAKING pain in the ass, God I hate editing so much but like it's something that's got to happen, I guess. Now Comfort Food is ready to be posted this coming Thursday, and I need to edit Something To Be Protected for the week after that, then FINALLY get around to editing Teeth for the week after THAT. Just basically SO MUCH EDITING. /SOB
I'm like 75% of the way through writing Baby, and I've started writing Supply And Demand, but I really need to work on Endling since it's now next in line (I ended up pushing Hunting Souls down father in the list after all.) But I've decided that after I post Nightingale, I'm going to drop my Every Thursday update schedule and just update as I finish fics because honestly, I love my SPN AU and everything, but I need to work on some other things for a bit because my brain is just... starting to burn out on SPN. I'm trying to keep writing it by easing back a bit and working on other stuff as well, because I love it so much, so I mean, fingers crossed for me!
What I really need to do is get back to writing TKA, after like four-and-a-half months of hiatus for various reasons. I'm SO CLOSE TO FINISHING IT and it's just EATING AT ME because I'm THAT CLOSE to having completely written an original novel, you know? So once I'm done my editing on Something To Be Protected and Teeth, I'm going to pull TKA back up and try to get it finished up. BUT THEN MORE EDITING. /SOBSOBSOB
One thing I AM considering is printing Horror High and Storm Season so I have actual book copies of them. There would be maybe four or five books in the set: Horror High, Horror High One-Shots, Storm Season and Storm Season One-Shots (possibly two volumes of those.) I wouldn't be selling them or anything, I would just have one copy of each printed for myself, you know? Ideally in hardcover, but I'm thinking of going with Lulu for printing and they don't offer hardcover as an option, as far as I can tell.
But to do this I need a cheap/free program for creating .pdf files because all the self-publishing sites work through .pdf and so far the Internet is just screaming ACROBAT at me, and that is NOT CHEAP OR FREE. I dunno, I'm still looking into it.
Come to think of it, I should have a copy of Biology printed for myself, too... .__. Hmm.
