Creator Journals 5/7/25

My new book is coming out in two days! I should probably be excited about that, but it seems I’ve already emotionally moved on to my next project. I should probably take the time to celebrate my victories more often. If my life is nothing but endless tasks without any satisfaction, I don’t think I’ll make it very far. Energy is precious. Yesterday, after writing just about 300 words, I crashed really hard and had to lay in bed for over an hour. Even after that I was pretty depressed for the whole rest of the day. My mental and physical health issues make this whole thing an uphill battle, but it’s a battle I’ve chosen. I just need to gauge my energy better next time.

So, celebration. I’m really happy with the way Hounds of Ruin turned out. I spent countless hours with these characters, feeling their emotions, their pains and joys, hopes and dreams, and nothing excites me more than the prospect of sharing that experience with other people, even if only a handful of people ever read it!
I suggest we all celebrate. Take joy in creation. There’s no reason to do it otherwise! 

Celebrate. Good times. Come on.
