What's after Zombie Bite?

I'm not going to do a weekend review this weekend. I've only played video games and that's not fair for the people who come here to read what I have to say about writing (or read book reviews), so I thought that I would share something that's been on my mind for a little while. I have been working on Zombie Bite, getting it ready to publish and wondering what book bloggers to send it to when it's finally done. I decided to add a short story that I originally wasn't going to include. A very short story, which was going to be a chapter in the next book. The survivors in Zombie Bite live in a hotel and I was thinking of writing a series about them, each one told from someone else's point of view. At this moment I am not sure if I still plan to do so. I am working on getting a kindle, nook, and physical copy of Zombie Bite so that everyone can enjoy it. I also have been thinking about my next writing project a lot, and I think it's time for me to go back to something I was planning to release a long time ago. I posted a lot when I first started this blog about a novel I was writing called Hair Of The Wolf, at the time I even posted a writing sample. I gave up on it after awhile because I didn't feel my main character had the right voice. I wanted her to be emotionally scarred, and I wrote a character based on one of my ex-boyfriends. That ex-boyfriend had just been a jerk and wouldn't have caused her to have some of the reactions that she had throughout the book. I have since been in a relationship that could only be described as abusive (I have a lot to say about abusive relationships and may write a blog post on it later on). I want to rewrite parts of that novel to give her a relationship similar to mine so that she can be scarred enough to get to the place she needs to be in the book. It will take awhile to whip the book into shape, but I know that I can do it.

Weekend Review: The Walking Dead season 2 video game

First I would just like to shamelessly self promote my YouTube channel, which I am still trying to figure out. I play video games on it. You can view my walking dead playlist by clicking here.

I have a YouTube channel where I play games, and that means I get to try out a lot of games that I haven't before. I haven't really been working too hard on the gaming channel, but I plan to change that soon. I just need to set aside some time to do so. I also have been busy with school, which is why I didn't read a book this week for the weekend review (I am honestly thinking of doing one day with a game review and the other book review). Anyway, I am really getting into the walking dead season 2, just like I did with season 1, but I do find some actions a little...unnecessary. When Clementine was patching up her arm it seemed to take forever, and you also need to click on every single thing, which drives me a bit crazy. Everything else has me interested, the story is great, the 'combat' is the same as the first game. It's a great game. I can't wait to play more of it.

Your dreams won't come true unless you push yourself

I am about to publish my zombie novel, the one that I had shared an unedited first draft chapter a few months or so ago, and I couldn't be happier about finally wrapping that up and putting it out there. I feel like I've worked harder on that than I have anything else. I plan on working on some other old novels that I have on here after that. I know that I wouldn't have gotten that far if I hadn't pushed myself, but there was a time that I wasn't pushing myself. In 2015 I had just about given up on writing. I got to do it every now and then, but my ex made it clear that my free time belonged to him. He was a person who didn't push himself. He wanted to be an artist, but it seemed to me like he only wanted to sell his art to his friends and family (people who were safe and wouldn't say that his art sucked). I often pushed him, even saying that we should write a children's book together where he could draw and I could write. There came a point where I gave up on motivating him because nothing that I said stuck with him. I became kind of mean towards him, but that's a story for another day if at all. One thing that I have not been pushing myself towards is the let's play channel that I made. I plan to do more with that soon. I'm considering playing the second season of the walking dead, since I haven't yet. The let's play channel isn't my dream though, it's just something fun to do. I already like playing games and it's fun to record myself playing them. Anyway, the point of this blog is that you can not be successful unless you push yourself to be. You need to put in the effort, work towards your goals.
