Full disclosure, fellows: this is a clip show.

I read on Medium recently that viewership drops in December. I’m here to practice writing fiction, so that shouldn’t dissuade me, even though it’s a bummer when notifications plummet.

But I’ve also had my eye on writing a book, and there’s only so much time in a day. So just for December, I’m going to switch to focusing on that. It seems like a better use of my writing time for the holiday month.

I might still add stories here, but it won’t be daily like it has been. Or I might switch to posting super short things, like one or two paragraphs. Or I might post updates about how the book-writing is going, if any of my readers are interested.
