The days go by fast... and I have not been on here in over three months. I am off of Facebook for good... it was so toxic on there - everyone was fighting and arguing about politics and posting nonsense to just incite trouble half the time I think. I will be self-publishing my first novel this month, many other books done. It is historical fiction, 324 pages, a very Catholic novel - the second book is historical fiction also but set in Puritanical New England, and is much longer. I am still looking for a literary agent but in general they are there only for the well connected and celebrities can get the worst trash published we all know - because they have an automatic fan base. Dieting going OK. I started writing down everything I eat this week. I am going to try to go for a walk this evening unless it rains. The weather is nice, but warm lately - 80s and 90s Fahrenheit. My younger sister got divorced recently - wasted a decade with a loser, she does not talk to me. I may move to Spain if I get a good publishing deal. I have to move somewhere that is milder and arid, and that might be the best bet. I need a Mediterranean climate and I do not want to live in California again, when I was there for years I was like an earthquake magnet. I need to lose about 20 lbs. I can do it. I have to get on here and journal. And journal my daily intake of EVERYTHING to make sure I am not sneaking in hidden calories I do not need.

Doing OK. Busy writing and reading. I am doing my eighth book now. I may need injections in my fingers for arthritis - maybe next winter. I am hoping the warmer weather that will be coming will ease it. My book should be out in two weeks - historical fiction - 324 pages. Weight steady and losing. I am glad it is going down. And my appetite is less now too.

I am doing OK. Weight steady and losing. I am getting in swimming at the gym in the heated pool for therapy swimming. I am ready for spring, we had heavy, heavy rain yesterday and last night and it melted what little snow clumps were left on the ground. I am watching what I eat, and with the exercise, I am sure in time it will bring the scale down. I am busy writing. My first book will be available online in kindle edition and in paperback by mid-March. It is 324 pages long, historical fiction.

Doing OK. I am not eating enough... and the weight sort of has stalled in its coming off. I have a light breakfast, light lunch... and sometimes get faint-headed as one knows if they diet. I am trying not to eat late at night (anything, which is the key to keeping pounds off). I am on metabolism-slowing medicine, so I must eat much less than most men who are 6 foot 2 to lose weight. It is warm today, nearly 60* F, here in western Massachusetts. The arthritis I have is bothering me - my joints. My left hip socket especially, so I can't go for a walk. I will try to go swimming at the Y in the warm pool this week. My first book should be out in the next month - it is a 400-page historical fiction novel, two more longer novels should follow later this year probably. I am not initially expecting to make money off of this, as I am self publishing. I need to get a big publishing deal for the first three books, I think it will happen eventually.

I am doing OK. I am still getting over my best friend's suicide. It will be four weeks ago tomorrow since he passed. It is in a way like he is still here (denial) even though I was in the hospital room when he passed away. He was a good friend for five years. He was off his mental health meds. I will do a weigh-in - in about two weeks. I am NOT getting enough exercise in as the weather has been very, very frigid so I am not going out and getting any walking in. I have my friend's two cats. I have another (my deceased mom's) and an older dog I have had since February 2, 2009. The dog is 16, but healthy. The cats are younger animals. I am ready for spring. In two months it will be here. I am self-publishing my first book in about six weeks. "Beyond the Wilderness" will be out by then, it is historical fiction set in the 17th Century, mostly in the New World, it is in the process of being made into a book now. Two more long books will follow this next year or so. I am writing Book Eight now. Dieting going OK. I went to the movies last night. I saw the action movie "Deadpool" - I give it an A minus, violence and lots of foul language, but better by far than most of the trash that Hollywood puts out, not for under 13 in my opinion, and some people had little kids in there. More comedy in it than many comedy movies.
