Can you feel that change in the air?  Things are coming back to life. This feels like the beginning of, not only a 2-3 month period of flowers blooming, but a much longer period of growth beginning. Our community is gearing up for massive expansion, and many people are ready to show just how they’ve grown during the corona winter of 2020. 

Sure things are still wacky and uncertain, it’s become clear that the world is never going back to normal, but if we all kick ass at what we do, that will all be for the better.

I, for one, am reaching a new stage of confidence and ability in coaching and in writing, with music to follow soon. I’m writing regularly and making a ton of progress on my series of mini novels.  I released 1.1 two weeks ago and just finished a first draft of 1.2. I’ve also started working on 1.3 and 1.4 which I am so ridiculously proud of. The end of 1.3 (or perhaps the beginning of 1.4) is probably the best interlude between two narratives that I could have possibly imagined.  I was not intending to write much mystery into this story but it seems to have written itself, and the reveals are all both very casual and extremely impactful.

I’ve always wanted to feel that my work was completely channeled from some beautiful corner of collective consciousness and now I finally feel that way. 

I hope to release 1.2 in early June, and I hope to finish 1.3 and be well into 1.4 by then.  I also plan on cleaning up the 60+ pages I have for Confessions of the damaged 2 which is a totally different story with different characters so that I’m ready to start serializing that story immediately after I’m done with the first one. 

Hopefully I’ll be able to get back to music soon too, that always seems to come out more naturally in summer.   

These past few weeks, I’ve also gotten the energy back to be more social and so I’m getting back in touch with a lot of people and interacting with the world again. 

I probably won’t be starting my business this summer but I will be doubling down as a freelancer and working at a much higher level than I ever anticipated at first, at least that’s the plan. 

I have been working out much more with the explicit intention of growing the muscles that support my back and overall posture. That means mostly my abs and my ass.  I’ve never had an ass.  I never cared much about it cause the flat piece of board that I call an ass is rather hairy and pale, but I will most definitely have something that I can call an ass to help make a strong foundation for my body. After that it’ll be pecs, can’t imagine myself with those yet, but those sound a lot more exciting than the ass for me.  

I’m going to try and do ass or an exercising every day for the next 3 months.

I’ll be a published author with an ass!  If that’s not a symbol of the springtime of life, I don’t know what is.

 I hope you enjoy these pictures of springtime flowers in Japan, taken by Mrs. Troll as much as she will enjoy my new ass. We’ve been taking about instead of her starting a Hive account of her own, she can provide me with pictures that will be much more pleasing for you, because her photography skills are at least 1000 times better than mine!

That’s right, Mrs. Troll is here with me in Tokyo, for her very first Cherry blossom season. She’s finally getting settled in and comfortable here and it’s much nicer with her around. 

I’m going to try and get back to blogging more regularly because it keeps me more energized to connect with my Hive family. 

I’ll also be slowly going through my old followed list to re-follow everyone and to catch up on some of their posts. It’s a lot of people but so if I take a long time to re-follow you, feel free to remind me. 😉 

Spring is the season of Love, so get to it!
