The late spring and early summer brought a tide of busyness to my life, which led me to neglect this poor blog. Though I am still caught up in all I am doing, I figured I really should make time to write here, since it has been more than a month. My goal of blogging twice a month has been overtaken by a couple of other goals.
Currently I am retraining to enter a new professional industry. While I am passionate about my writing, enjoy writing, and am thrilled to boast I have six books in print (Unicorn's Milk, Stubby, the Magic Pencil, Callings: Tales of the Conrads of Karna, The Conrad Chornicles: Revolt and Realizations, and A Tale of Butts: The Story of a Couch), as well as a seventh book to be released this autumn, I discovered an opportunity that I should explore. Thus, these past two months, I have been taking on-line classes and training in securities. AXA Corporation is sponsoring and guiding me through this process.
At this point I have passed the test to be registered in health and life insurance with the state of Oregon, and have passed my Series 63 securities test. These days I am studying for the Series 7 test, which I shall be taking in July. This is a big test as it boasts 260 questions taken over 6 hours! You can see why my blogging has been put a bit on hold.
I am still writing, just not as much as before I started taking classes. Lately I have been reworking a draft of the fifth Conrad book. The dialogue is strong in the fifth book, but descriptions really need flushing out and detailing.
Enough blogging for now. Enjoy your summer.
