No promises to myself or others, but I wanted to post somethings here since I don't post stuff on any other social media and sometimes its nice to have a place. 

The new year has started pretty meh from a world perspective, and I am not particularly optimistic its going to get better. I'm trying to limit the amount I focus too much on world events that I can't impact without radical change, but finding that balance between keeping my finger on the pulse but my mind out of the mire is going to be a struggle, I can tell. 

I got my ears pierced, which is cool and nice and something I'm happy about. I'm also doing some other long term self-improvement things where I can. It feels good to have control of something for myself. I still have strides to go, but I am going to make them as I can. 

I've got my book through Draft 7 again and I want to try to query it again. I don't have any hope, tbh, but I feel like with this last serious run at things, I can take the rejections with a sort of solace that frankly, I can publish online and declare mission accomplished, if only to get myself past this hurdle. I've never had this much angst about my fanfiction and I don't expect to get paid for them either. 

Long term goals are to make more friends this year and/or a community to dive into. 

Maybe more later all. Have a good day all!
