Well after a bit of a bad month in terms of editing and writing, Im hoping to finally get back on track with editing Disarray, the second book in my post-apocalyptic series. Now, Ive not set a firm goal for editing, besides just getting on with it, but hopefully by the end of this month Ill have a better idea for how much longer Ill need before getting it back out into the world for more feedback.
Besides that I also plan to finish Tracker, my current read, and upload at least one other video on YouTube relating to advice or help, as thats taken a bit of a backseat for the past month or so! Hopefully Im back on track now!

So, as per my usual productivity sprints, these videos are essentially to hold me accountable for goals set. Again, I still debate the point of uploading them after completing the task so perhaps in future Ill change this up or think of another idea with these sprints of mine.
Anyway, I managed to complete my character sheet! There were a few blank spots at the end but they were for background characters where the cost of spending time on them out-weighed the benefits of doing something else!

Hi. Yeah, so some things came up and life threw a curve ball at me, then when I was down it threw several more. But here we are though, almost back into it. Good stuff.
Ill be attempting to get into a routine again and back into the sphere. Anyway, what have you been up to?
