Seasick, but still floating....
Friday, March 25, 2005

Well, I really like my new job...I genuinely like my boss and co-worker, and I like what I do. I just wish that I wasn't so wretchedly tired at the end of the day.

I finally actually got some books reviewed. I've been working on whittling down everything. I need to balance my life, work with pleasure, writing career with what pays my bills. I still edit, but I plan to probably cut my review places, keeping Fantastica Daily and Mostly Fiction for certain, but backing off from the others. I feel sorry about it, but...it's not really much fun right now, and I need to recapture the joy of it. Now I look at books, and instead of the joy, the happiness, because stories are, ultimately, the core of my soul, I see...work.

Now to get back to my book...*face desk.*

I also have majorly gotten back into the Napoleanic War era. I have a slew of books there I want to read, from the Hornblower and Aubrey/Maturin series and some more Sharpe books I found, to actual accounts of sailing ships and life. I also now *whispers* run a role playing community. The one I belonged to was closed, and so, i went, and began another. So...erm...I'm a manager again, lol.It's so nice...message baords are great, but...I run out of things to say about my life. Role playing, I can hang out with people and...I don't need to have anything to say about my life. I can make it up. And it's not very time intensive, now it's built.

I thought I had posted a comment here. Hmm. I might've bagged it if blogger was running slow. Ah well. I do remember wanting to comment on the Napoleonic thing. Getting into that majorly? Heh. How about reading WAR AND PEACE? All 1400 pages of it! I've about 250 left to read.

You shouldn't go into hiding so often for so long.

It's quite good, actually! I finished it at the beginning of last weekend. I've now gone and jumped into two books. Have Space Suit - Will Travel, by Robert A. Heinlein, and The Gambler, by Fyodor Dostoevsky. I'm finding I really like those Russian blokes. I don't recall ever having to read them in high school.
