Life news:
My father passed away on the 20th. i am still upset about it and am really questioning the existience of a higher power.
on top of that i have to move back in with my family. Something i really didn't want to do. But it will be a better situation for us all.
Work related:
My job is finally getting to me. i used to love working at michael's. but now there is so much stress that there are times i just want to slam my head against something. my employee's are morons, the District manager was an idiot (he got replaced) and they ask so much with so little time.
On the lighter note, my book is coming out and that is a good thing. the more people ask for it at Barnes and nobel is the more chance that they will keep the book in stock. I now have to save up to buy a few copies (a few 100) so i can do book signings and readings and things like that. I need to contact local newspapers and such and get my name out there. it seems like a lot of work, but it will be worth it.
Family News:
Zander (my almost 6 month old son) is crawling and getting into much mischief. but he is happy, healthy and smart.
My wife (erica) started her new job at 24 hour fitness and i hardly see her anymore, so i am sadened about that.
Story news:
Book 2 (Pools of Ebony) is well under way and i will be writing more as soon as i have energy and time. I hope to get this one done in a little over eight months.
and that is about all i can think of.
aloha,
Matt
