A few new ramblings

This adventure so far:


So far, this writing and publishing roller coaster has been one hell of a ride. I start writing my first novel in November of 2013 and somewhat finished it around May of 2014. I know that’s longer than some people’s advice that a novel should be able to be written in 3 months. That’s great and all, but that doesn’t necessarily work for this guy. There’s a lot of great adv
