Another month shot to Hell.
So far, this is possibly the most stressful, and the worst month in my recent memory. It's also involved the most politics, so my bet is that there's a connection there.
My first blog of the month was the review of last month, but the first real article was on making a villain. It's simpler than one might think... and far more complicated.
There looked like there was going to be a problem with my writing .... and I'd like to thank Karina, among others, for their support .... but I managed to struggle through.
I started with a little filler -- a Catholic news roundup in the middle of the month, mainly because there was so much stupidity floating around. Remember what I said about too much politics? This was it.
I did an anatomy of a breakup, using one of my own collapsing friendships to illustrate the point. I thought it was appropriate for Valentine's day. First the initial incident, then the emotional fallout, and then wondering what to do about all the promises made and debts unfulfilled.
Then I went into hiding.
Thankfully, I still had even more articles to summarize, in The War On God.
Music blogs.
This was the month of Lindsey Stirling, really. She did a beautiful version of Lord of the Rings, and followed it up with one of her own works. It's quite lovely all around, really.
Self Defense
There were almost no Self Defense posts this month, but they talked me into it.
The How-To Columns of self defense.
There is a local law enforcement seminar, if anyone in New York is interested
And, there's something on how to punch someone.
That's it. Be well everyone. By next Monday, I hope to have some good news. Because in 11 hours and 55 minutes, I'm going to be sending another book off to a publisher. Here's hoping.
