Smells Like Victory

All indications are that my first novel will in fact be published in a relatively short period of time. I no longer hold any delusions of large earnings from this endeavour. Writing screenplays is sure a lot of fun, too.
I suck so hard I blow at painting. It does offer a wonderful escape option. The drawings are a little better. I'd love to be one of these portrait guys you see on the street corner who will draw your picture for a small fee.
