updated author thoughts
I've been pretty busy having to hustle a fair bit to get to the target in my Pledgeme campaign, which is how it is, so that's all good.
I have learned things though. Unexpected things and also, things I knew but can now confirm without any doubt.
It's been interesting. Yes, let's call it interesting.
As I write this the campaign is sitting on $1000, only $600 short of the target!!
EDITED: As of Wednesday morning, we're now only $350 dollars away from total world domination. No, hang on, that's a different campaign. We're $350 dollars away from #ByteSeries books printed here in NZ and available!!
Pretty exciting! Fingers crossed I make it, otherwise, I won't achieve my goal and there won't be paperbacks. But regardless I will have uncovered some things during this exercise that will mean fewer disappointments down the track for me personally.
Stuff I know and have been thinking about this week:
1. I am glad I chose writing not acting. (Writing is infinitely easier than acting.)
2. Ellie has grown a lot in the last two years.
3. She still hates honey.
4. I shouldn't bake when I'm annoyed or stressed.
5. The fastest way to find out who your real supporters and cheerleading section are is to ask people to put their money where their mouths are.
6. It makes me nervous knowing both my sons are on the other side of the world at the same time even though my youngest son is only in Europe for a short while.
7. I truly enjoy helping people on their writing journey and last week I helped several people.
8. PopUp Business School Upper Hutt Support group is filled with amazing people.
9. The sky is blue, water is wet.
10. Zoo was a really enjoyable series.
11. It's time The Byte books were a TV series.
12. I have no time for drama created by idiots.
13. When I'm working. I'm working. And I will take your fucking head off if you break my train of thought with stupid bullshit.
14. I wish Geoff was here already.
15. Chocolate makes life enjoyable but tequila makes it MORE enjoyable.
16. Some days it feels like I'll never get the 11th book finished.
17. Your approval is not required.
18. Nor is your simpering sorry emoji.
