No catchy title for today lol

Let me start by saying hello to my one and only follower: J.B. I won't say their name unless they want me to.  However, I am flattered they are following my blog around, such as it is.  If you aren't really doing so, that's okay too. :-) I'm working on posting more regularly so bear with me and hope I have something worth posting about
:-D

Job search update:
Went to a job fair at Lowe's on Wednesday.  I interviewed with the HR person and then the assistant manager of the store.  The manager was out sick or I would've interviewed with them.  Anyway, I was given very positive feedback and was told they would get back to me once a background check was done on me.  I have no record so that's going to come back clean.   When they call me back it'll be to come in for an onsite drug test.  I haven't done drugs in years so that'll come out clean too.  This means I'll be employed by the end of the week if I'm lucky,  I may only be part time, but I don't care - it's better than nothing.

Writing update:
I'm still putting together a play list of music to write by,  I did get a great idea for the book from listening to a band called ayreon so I'll be putting them on the list for sure.

What Have I Been Doing Since Last Post

to be honest I've not been doing much beyond looking for work and searching for inspiration.

I read over the 40 pages I wrote of Blood of an Enemy, and I hate every last syllable I wrote!  It's all drivel.  I've tossed it out and now I'm putting together a playlist of songs to help me start over - once I find my inspiration again.

I'm going to start reading Machiavelli's The Prince tonight since it was recommended to me by a good friend.  He actually mentioned it a long time ago, but I just got the book so...anyway.

I've been rereading Agatha Christie and Laurell K Hamilton.  I may start a list of the books I've read just to share with you all my crazy taste in literature. :-)

I've decided to post excerpts of the books and poetry collections of the books I currently have on the market here and on my website.  I hope this generates interest in my work because to be quite honest, I could use the money from the sales.

Keep checking back since I might have found myself a job :-)  I have to do something to survive until I become a well known author lol
