So, I am thinking and thinking hard about the future before it even happens. Yet I know what I would want to do and I rather share with you all.
Firstly, the thought of publishing has NEVER left my mind. I do think about it in spades, yet I have remind myself to stay focused on the present, which is super difficult thanks to my mental health.
So, I had a crazy thought based on an old thread that I made. I wanted to publish a story outside my norm to gain some cash out of it. While I do that, I will work on my other novels set in Alagossia. I donât want to do that, but I canât stop thinking about doing it. Of course I would write it will be under a pen name. I keep pondering on should I go for it. I only get monthly disability income that arenât even enough to cover self-publishing, even at the cheapest.
Moving on the future goal for Project Succession and other Alagossian novels is to publish, but which route is the thing I canât stop fixating on. I am wishy-washy on what I want.
I know that I should think about a million things, but I could never do that. My mental health makes that an absolute problem. I figure since I am getting serious about writing fiction, with thoughts of publishing in the back of my mind, I try to nake a little goal for myself.
Anyway, I am just thinking aloud. I try to stay in the present, that shit is hard, yet I try. Still, without therapy and guidance, I am truly on my own and it is extremely tough.
I am overall goal is to keep writing and dishing out more stories set in Alagossia, then later decide to publish which one I would like to see published.
Also, I am wondering if I could publish a series of small stories set in Alagossia first, if those stories do well enough that I make some money off of it, then I will publish Alagossian novels. Like a teaser of what is to come, yet is that possible these days. I barely hear about such a process.
