As is the case for so many people these days, I am working multiple jobs.
I am working multiple jobs at my multiple jobs. Trying to do a bit of everything so that I can afford to do little things like… you know… eat. And sleep with a roof over my head. Luxuries like that.
The main trouble with this is that it makes it very difficult to get better at any one thing if I’m constantly pulled in nine directions. I get better slowly at each of them, sure, but that’s not really all that useful if I want to make a living by writing. I have to get better at writing faster.
All this to say that today I have to do some commission painting for a client while working on my Meta ads for my books while then writing scripts for a podcast. None of those are working on my novel… at least none of them are directly working on my novel, and that’s kinda what I want to do.
Maybe I’ll just throw caution to the wind for one day and write a few chapters instead of sleeping. That might be a thing I could do.
Hope everyone out there is staying safe and healthy!
