The Last Days of Bachelor Life and Writing Incentives

This weekend was the last weekend in the U.S. where I would still be living a bachelor lifestyle. My fiancé lives in the Philippines, so I have been living like a bachelor despite being in a relationship. Next weekend, I am flying out to the Philippines and getting married in the subsequent week. It has been fun living this way, but I have to admit that it has its limits. I am enjoying myself and hanging out with friends, but even that becomes routine after a while. My general satisfaction is relatively high, but with a clear limit or ceiling. It will be nice to have someone else there to be with and have my back.

Things will change, but my writing goals have not changed. If anything, these goals will be strengthened having someone else there as motivation. While I just have a passion for writing, I do want to make money with my writing as well ultimately being an author as a career. It is just further motivation and incentive to continue this goal, and it helps that I already have completed works. Now, it is a matter of continuing to pursue getting published in the traditional way or trying again with self-publishing.

Whatever I decide will be fine. I have re-edited The Mustard Prince to the point where it seems like a new book, and currently adding new chapters to The Land of the Wooden Statues, which should be done soon. It will be exciting to bring these out, as I feel that I have improved as a writer.
