It's been a long time since I've posted. And even longer since I've written anything naughty. This hasn't been intentional, but I should have seen it coming. It also isn't to say I'm dead or giving up, just having trouble coming back here for a while.
The biggest thing is Fork. When they were born, I knew that I would be spending more time doing parental duties and it would cut into my adult writing. What I didn't really expect is that with both Spawn and Fork, the amount of time I was more than doubled. Okay, I knew it intellectually, but in practice two children take a lot more time and effort. And when it comes between writing and family, family takes precedence.
The scary part is we are talking about getting a third.
The other one is that I'm not given time to write lately. And I feel really uncomfortable writing about demons and rough sex when there is a ten month old or a four year old sitting on my lap. It makes me feel… dirty, so I don't do it. I may write about certain topics, but they are not for reality.
Another reason that I haven't written is that I had some financial troubles. I'm working through it, it just takes time, but a lot more was put on my shoulders when Fork was born and, well, some bad things happened. It wasn't as disastrous as it was in 2008 (I'm not asking for help) but the resulting depression/obsession to recover has cut into my creativity.
I'm going to come up, that part is sure, but it may take a while. In the worse case, maybe a few months or even years. I really want to finish Derik's Luck and Dolcett Girls. It just requires time and attention that I don't seem to have a lot right now.
