the book wall shrinkage upd8

-
I'm about a centimetre away from breaking.

It's the last day of the month, so I got to buy my books for the month (four this month! hell yeah), so that's extended a little bit. But the thing is--

The thing is, with this situation, I'm missing going into a used bookstore and just purchasing up every fucking thing, you know? Like just filling my arms and going to town, man, like grabbing whatever looks good and saying whatever, you know? In this situation I get to pick out like, a couple of books off of ThriftBooks and that's it.

The Wall is at 922--down from 964. That's almost fifty books down, which is kinda cool. That is also not counting the books that I've gotta haul at some point, because I have not hauled them and thus they are not technically in the Wall yet so they're in some weird fucking book limbo, you know?

I want to buy books.

But.

I cannot.

obligatory new year blog post

So, it's 2019. There are a few questions to ask. What did I do last year? I started this blog, and posting regularly. While this isn't like anything very many people read (I average ~20 views a post, hollaaaaaaaa), I do like it, and I think it's a way for people do kind of understand my voice if they're curious on whether I can actually write or not.

Speaking of writing, this year's projects were... a novella for class, a first draft, a first draft that I abandoned (i'm sorry i still really like this idea maybe some other time), a decision that I Need To Rewrite The Pet Project Again, a first draft, a revision of what I'm currently calling my best work but I'm looking at another round of revision this coming year, a first draft, a rewrite that taught me yeah I can't do fantasy, and a NaNoWriMo that cons...

the writing year so far

 I mean, it's been going well. I've put out two books so far, and the only reason Class B isn't out is because I just haven't gotten around to uploading the final draft to Amazon and everything. It's done. I'm about 14k into the next Aughts Boys book, which I am a little lukewarm about (it's Kevin, and he's like, kind of meh, for me, honestly), and about 10k into the last Serial Killers with Cookies book. Next month I start a rewrite of a Tinon novella, and the month after I start a rewrite of another standalone. It's going well. I think I'll publish all the books I meant to publish this year--the only one I'm iffy on is Kaz at the Approach . Everything else should be finished with plenty of time to spare, which is not like, generally my experience. Usually I have crossover between years.  It's been a good year so far.
