2020 Year in review

This is the post that will kind of sum up my professional endeavors for the year as well as give some insight as to what I’m working on for the year ahead. The first thing I have to say is that I’m sorry. I’ve written my second novel and I wasn’t able to release it before the end of the year. I thought I would have been able to release it before the New Year but the editing process is taking a while. I can say with certainty that my next book titled the Well of Destruction will be out sometime in 2021. I can tell that most people would remember 2020 as a truly awful year. To those people I would say be grateful for the things you do have and know that there will be a tomorrow to make things better. Personally I think I’ve had a very decent year I independently published my first novel and I’m on the way to publishing the second one. But I did experience great loss. I do stand up comedy and do to this year’s calamity all comedy shows I would do, have been canceled indefinitely. It could take years for my local comedy scene to recover from this year. The scene was barely hanging on by a thread before everything happened and this particular economy may never fully recover. So I’ve had to switch to a different creative outlet, one that I can do while social distancing. So all of the energy I would put into writing new jokes now has to go to writing stories. So we’ll see if I ever do stand up again. Now let’s get into what I’m going to do in the New Year. I’m playing around with starting a gaming channel on twitch. I think maybe I’ll try to tell some jokes and play video games as well as maybe get some of my comedian friends to come on with me. If I can ever find the motivation to get that going look out for that. I’m also working on starting a patreon page. So if there’s anybody out there who really likes my novels and wants to read more of them, kicking in a few dollars a month would go a long way to helping out. It might be hard to corner the market for people who are fans of fantasy novelist/stand up comedians but we’ll see how that goes. I have an idea for a special offer on my patreon page. If any of my patrons wants some personalized content for $20 and a subject I’ll write you an original short story. What do you guys think? I’ll keep you posted on how things like that go. So there is a lot of things to look forward to in the New Year. I assure you all that I am extremely far from running out of things to write about. I can’t wait to publish new stuff.
