We have now entered into the month of October. October is the SECOND half of Latino Heritage Month. It is also the start of the fall season; of course, the Autumnal Equinox was in September, buuut you get my drift. October also happens to be my birthday month...the 8th, to be exact. I'll be turning 46 years old. Yay, me.
I'm continuing with my celebration for Latino Heritage Month. I've been doing my series on "The Rough Draft" on YouTube to celebrate it; my #CelebratingLatinoHeritageMonth video series, profiling my Latino lead characters, and Latino-themed books. Been doing what I can to promote the videos, but you know how that goes...
Speaking of "The Rough Draft"...we're now in out twenties!!! I've just posted Episode 21, today!! I've been producing and posting the videos on YouTube at a good clip. I've gotten at least 2 new subscriptions, so far. My views are still nonexistent, but that's par for the course whenever it comes to anything that I do. Niggas don't support me for shit. I can't even remember the last time I sold a book online. But, I digress...
Don't really have any plans to celebrate my upcoming birthday (Oct 8th). It seems the old I get, the less that I want to be bothered. I dunno...maybe is I had a girlfriend or wife, it might matter a little more; hell maybe even kids. Every year, my birthday just gets hollower, and hollower. :-(
Still working on the next book release for next year. The cover is now DONE!!! I've gotten my decision down to two different covers. I just need to come up with a publishing date, and a back cover synopsis. Yay!!! Look out for the publication of Knuckle Up (2021)!!!
Still working on my plans to repatriate to Africa. Either Gambia, Tanzania, or Uganda. I actually do have a comrade that now lives in Ghana; that's an option, as well. I met him while living in Richmond, VA. Most of the people that I was associated with back then have moved on to better things, since then. It almost feels like a lifetime ago. At the same time, this year makes it ten years since I first moved to Baltimore, MD. Maybe my ass just needs to learn to stay in one place, lol, lol, lol. ;-)
Well, that's all for now. I'll hit you guys up, and keep you updated on my future plans, and episodes.
Keep the fist raised.
