Who saw that coming?

Things change. Boy do I know they change. In the blink of an eye, and sometimes even faster than that. One day they are something, it's completely normal, you know the routine backwards and forwards and can following it through with your eyes closed, and then the next it flips upside down and you don't know where you are.

For me, I'm talking about the fact that a few weeks back I got my first ever job. I work weekends. Just working those two days a week have shifted things suddenly. I still have nothing to do during the week like I did before, but I've realised just how much I did during the weekend and the difference it makes not having those two days.

I decided last week that I would post a regular chapter of my play Requiem For A Dead Thing on Wattpad once a week, and so I shall have to focus on writing regular chapters to upload. I also am in the middle of editing my fantasy novel The Assignment which I am also uploading chapters of as soon as I'm done. The chapters uploaded at the moment still need a bit of work, but they are being uploaded for the feedback of the community. If they ever decide to leave me a comment which so far they haven't.

So I am having to rearrange my schedule a bit to fit in all that. I know you must be all thinking that, seriously, two days a week of work and you're finding it hard? Well, to be honest, I'm not really find it hard. I can make the changes easily, but it was just the point of how quickly things changed.

The Arrival Hath Come

Today welcomes the arrival of insane, genius detective Dastardious Hollow in Of Lights and Shadows, a tale of murders old and new, secrets lost but never forgotten, destruction, and lies. It's a journey into the life of Dastardious Hollow, into who he truly is, as he is released from his life sentence in order to find the mysterious Shadow, a serial killer with a penchant for kidnapping children under 13 years of age and killing them in exotic ways. A killer who never leaves clues.

Along the way Detective Hollow meets up with Silence Mourner, a mute man he once met on a murder case, and the closest thing he has ever considered to be a friend. Benjamin Dutch, a criminal from Australia, sentenced for life for six cases of murder and one of kidnapping before the age of 21. And fellow detective, Theodore Mulligan, a man who holds quite a link to Dastardious Hollow and is on a quest to rid the world of Hollow and would do anything to succeed.

In which I make a joke. See if you can spot it...

August 1st, 2014. 213 days since the beginning, 152 days until the end. We have five more months of the year to go, how about that? Haven't these months sneaked by real fast? I mean the last I remember it was May, and then all of a sudden it's the first of August and I'm like, '...What? How did this happen?'

I'm not actually sure what I've got planned to write in this post. I had it in mind that seeing as it was the first I'd go all spy like and say something like, 'August 1st, 213 days since infiltration, enemy still unaware that I am Special Agent 042.' Nah, that sounds silly. What else am I supposed to say after that?

Anyway, happy 1st of August everybody! Let the weekend roll on and let's party! I don't know about you, but I'll be partaying this weekend, and it shall be awesome.
