Whew! It’s been a long arc, hasn’t it? But there’s no rest for the wicked, and the new Dreamland Arc starts next Friday! In addition, I’m almost ready to launch something completely different, but you’re going to have to wait until Monday’s update to see what it is!

People frequently tell me I’m too busy, and perhaps they’re right. But to me, I have to work hard on these projects. If I didn’t, all I would be doing is thinking about doing them anyway, so I feel it’s better to use my time in this manner and put up with a bit of stress than to sit around being generally miserable and feeling sorry for myself. Sure, maybe I’m giving up a bit of social life, but I’ve got my friends, and we get to go places and hang out. Could definitely do with a little boost in the romance department, though, although to be honest even if I had the time I’m pretty terrible at even asking ladies out. Yes, I am nerd classic.

But I feel what I get out of it is valuable enough to continue doing it. I get to tell my stories, I have thousands of readers from all around the world, and I’m accomplishing something with my life with the real potential to take it even further. Life can be good at times!

And so, I’m just adding something else to my workload, but it’s something I can work on in my lunchtime at work or on the bus, and will help me improve much of what I do. It’ll be fun, trust me!

Anyway, enjoy the adorable mini-Maia on today’s post. Bed, then work, then WEEKEND, WOO!
