Day 2: I am super bored!

While I write about this, I am just not going to be mad, but I am going to complain, I need to work at least. I have been working on the editing for the mini novel attached to my book right now, so I am kind of tired of this being out of work BS.

I love working but honestly, right now, my entire body is damned with the concept that something is going to be going wrong soon.

I am looking at Amazon for distribution for my book digitally and hope that I can at least be ready that way. I am thinking about releasing by May at the earliest or June at the latest. I am hoping that I can use my own artwork by the end of this because I have several pictures that will help with the covers and also a few other pieces of art that are part of the artbook which will be physical.

I might have to look at kickstarter for some of the Dragon's Library Artwork to help pay for physical copies of the books for distribution outside of Amazon. Yeah, the joys of planning ahead!

Maybe sooner, I just finished up the information regarding the Dragon's Library information, though I may not be using my pen name on here for much longer, I am thinking for using my real name when I do this book. I have hidden behind, Nagi, Recca and so on for years, so I need to work on the fact that many people who find out who I am are going to hate me.

Yeah, if I become famous, someone will walk up and start to talk shit about it, it isn't my fault that I did shit back in 2009 I am not proud of. I think it shouldn't affect how my work looks now.

I did it! I submitted my work to Amazon and I am hopeful that I will get an answer or modify the work to comply, I am basically releasing my work onto Digital and paperback. I am not relying on paperback as much as I am relying on the digital copies to be sold. Yeah, they're cheaper than I expected, but I am hoping to get more information as it comes out. I am also going to be announcing this to my friends come Monday.

Home till further notice....not a happy dragon

So far, I am home stuck writing a book and working on whatever while wearing cat ears and a tail. Yeah, I'm just going to do a cosplay of the day type of deal and have my fiance take pictures of me so I can have some fun. I may actually put on my Yami Kawaii outfit tomorrow.

The fact I am battling writer's block right now while my fiance sleeps, he only got a bit of sleep this morning. While we did fight, I am opting to change a stance I have had regarding the book's publication.

As it sits second book is still stuck on chapter 1, I must be losing steam right now.

Hard Core History Lesson: Dragon's Library

I am working on the history of the Planor, this is not going to be seen by most people, but here I am trying to do a family tree and then work on the creatures of the world. I have been not working on that and I have been kicking myself because this is kind of important to World Building.

I have had to build on this as it is part of the history of the Planor world, but also acts as part of the story and what comes next for Belinda and Sam. I have not thought too far ahead of that but I am thinking of working on a Prequel series after the main story is done introducing the cast of Dragons and the cast of Elves who were around during the Dragon Wars.

I have always thought that it was a good idea to write the Dragon War in a few years, but I have always felt it was going to come out during the book as I release it. I am starting to think that maybe i should just continue writing the history along with the story and then see how well that develops. I am not sure how I can work with it, but here I go.

I am thinking that I should release along with some of the books, "Planor History 101: Dragon War," "Planor History 102: Post Dragon War", and then finally "Planor History 103: Mage Wars and Beyond." As I  see it, that I created a huge amount of history and also a huge amount of craziness attached to the world and the characters I have created for said world.

Back to Work

The Dragon's Library is back up and running again, I am so far working on book 2 and working on finishing editing of book 1 which is ready for someone to look at. I am pretty much going to be focusing on this while this COVID 19 thing is going around. I am not sure how to respond to people these days because all I want to do is work and get the book reviews done, but now I am forced to work from home on the books instead of in the comfort of a library where I could just bounce my ideas off someone.

So far, I did help a friend of mine out with his book issues, in fact he actually took my suggestions to heart and redid a section of his book which I believed would have been stronger. There are things I am good at, politics is not one of them, but at least when it comes to prose this girl knows what she's doing it.

Now I just need to work on the Dragon's Library and finish up what I can do.

Writing and more annoying factors

I have not had pen to paper as of late due to my brain wishing it could sort out story ideas without feeling overwhelmed by the news. The truth is I don't rightly give much thought about riding the bus or getting sick, I just do it and not give up my idea that maybe getting sick happens.

Personally people flip out with the dumbest thing. I remember watching an episode of Hey Vern its Ernist who talks about Space Viruses and other strange things. Everyone gets sick, no matter where you go or who you know. I could have a cold one second then the flu then something else, it is all amounts to how you educate yourself.

As I write the Dragon's Library, I take into account, yeah I get sick, yeah I get tired, but I can always write down my stories while sitting in bed trying to get better. The truth is though I feel the stress around me too, people who see writers think we're lazy.

I started to realize how lousy that feels when someone tells me I am a lousy writers on Reddit, but then I realize, wait they're writing my accounts of what happened to me. They're not reading the stories  I write offline or what I write on Wattpad, so some of their shit doesn't matter to me. So I will close and say the contest is slow this month due to many problems.

Super Sad....The Magicians is going down

Well...after April 1st, the show is ending and its sad, I was actually enjoying myself with this one show because it actually gave me some pretty funny ideas with my own writing. I wanted to thank Lev Glossman because he sure as hell made a lot of ideas I was tossing around possible, though the rabbit message delivery was original. I am pretty sure that I won't use that in my book, but its a good concept to have a transdeminional being that are rabbits.

I am sad to see the show leave the air because it gave a lot of concepts about being positive about one's life. It talked about suicide, LGBTQ issues, and also about rape in a manner that was sensitive and also compelling. I agreed with how Julia handled her rape and how she handled going forward, she was angry and she had every right to be. Hell, even Margo agreed with her actions to a point, though destroying an entire forest was a bad move.

The truth is I was impressed with the way the story was conveyed and also how the actors were received, I was happy to have met Summer and Hale, they were and always will be the nicest people ever.

I hope that eventually the party in the group doesn't end. It was the most positive experience I have ever had!

The Break is Real

I had to take a break from my own writing because it was giving me a headache, I started to write my own fan fictions again to sort out a lot of things. I am exhausted, but again, being sick doesn't help the matter and having lost my voice this morning did not help me.

Frustration with the fact that I see the political streams of thought, I had one guy who is a Trump supporter actually degrade my writing and my drawings to the point that I don't what to draw or write anymore. I was just disgusted and while my fiance speaks that I shouldn't listen to these creeps, he's not the one who gets messaged with insults or the one who tries to block them out.

I am not going to whine about it, though I am going to just back up a little and see where I can just make it through this political shit storm. I noticed that the more people are reading the less at war it feels that people are going. There are many writers and readers who are not for the ideas of what is going on in the country.

Though on my other blog I decided to put it out my logical reasoning why I dislike C.S. Lewis as a writer and prefer the works of Madeliene L'Engle, Lev Glossman, Jeff Vandermeer, and more, that they seem less rule making. I personally want as an author to be like these authors with their own spin on fantasy and wonder. I have always thought it odd to turn around and tell people rules, I never got that sense from Anne McCaffrey or even Brian Jacques (Jakes). I was much more into works where you can feel included.

So I have to go, my fiance needs laundry.
