    I admit it. I’ve been seeing someone else. That’s part of why I haven’t been around too much. I’ve been taking money for it.

    More specifically, financial constraints finally pushed me to abandon my long-held refusal on selling my fiction writing. My reasoning has always been that when your hobby becomes your job it’s time for a new hobby. However, my current reasoning is I have bills to pay and less money in my bank account right now than I gave away to charity last year.

I definitely understand your perspective here, but hey, there are certainly worse ways to make a paycheque. Especially in today's economy.

    People are even enquiring about publishing whole books by me, but I’m holding off on that until I see how my experience of short story publishing goes. I admit I do have six completed novels sitting on my hard drive, plus a four-volume fantasy story, so if I do decide to go for broke at least I have some back catalogue.

Well, hopefully the experience is a positive one. Not that I'd ever want you to stop writing around here, but at the same time I think you deserve the wider exposure (and, y'know, money) that comes with being published. So, congratulations, Ian! I'll make a note to check into how I can get a hold of your upcoming stories.

    Anyhow, once I’ve surfed the current wave of “get Ian to write this” – and the current wave of “Here’s another letter from the court about your divorce/custody battle” - I hope to be back to writing for the PVB as usual, and catching up on other people's efforts. Assuming I’m not locked out and made to sleep on the couch.

I'm sure there'll always be a warm bed for you here. But me, they make sleep out back in a tent. (But that's probably to be expected, at this point...)
