The exciting writing and the drudgery of technology!
I love to write! I think I always have. Unfortunately the scourge of the present time period is that everyone who is not born into money, royalty, or some other incredibly rare circumstance is expected to spend the greater part of their energy making a living. I have always found my day job challenging and I have enjoyed it as a dharma (a giving to society). However it does not create, except in furtive moments for me, those peak experiences, which I have been privy to during the exercise of my art. Writing my books is a fulfillment uncommon in general life. BUT trying to format my book for e-book purposes - is the depth of drudgery! I am grateful for the technology which allows publishing without the interference of the status quo based publishers and their scissors, yet the machinations of continuous word documents and styles and then the correct compression of pictures, is a bit more than I can believe necessary in this age of technological ease. Nevermind, one of them is done and uploaded at Free e-books.net. More to follow as soon as I can get up my nerve to format again!
