I messed up

Again

Literally, every single thing I did for biz today had a mistake in it

Not a typo size error

I’m good at those

My mind moves faster than my fingers a lot of times

And I’d rather ship it fast than agonize over a blitzkreig of corrections frm grammer nazis

But today, I picked the wrong voice for an audiobook

That made it all the way to the end of the process

Meaning getting ready to upload

And it was wrong

Then, I finished and uploaded a new book

Same genre

Right book description

Correct cover

Bad title in the listing

Wrong title

Because…

I’m in a hurry at the moment

This is the last week before #10 goes to school and I’m spending a lot of time with him

And he demands as much, if not more attention than a toddler

A lot of “Watch this!” on Tik Tok and a lot of “Watch me!” when he’s swinging

Plus batting cages, and field work and riding around to football practice and haircuts and picking up friends

Because I can’t keep up with him as well as his 14 year old buddies can

Elite athletes all

Plus planning for what comes next for me in a week when he’s back in school

Work, yes.

Lot’s and lot’s of it, but also, twelve more days of this adventure before it’s time to move onto and into the next phase

But in between now and then, it’s kinda chaotic and unsettled

With work in various stages and backed up because of my boo boo’s

Like sending out the big boxsets to say thank you for being a paid subscriber is five days behind

Low access to the internet after a weekend of no internet at all

So I’m working on something as a sort of thank you bonus

And limited time online this week has exacerbated it

All of it

As well,

But when I look at the man in the mirror

Do I yell and scream about screw up’s?

Heck no, that’s what happens when you move fast

Stuff breaks

Stuff falls through the cracks

Stuff gets pushed back and pushed around but one thing remains the same

Stuff happens

What stuff?

It
