A Request for the Holmes Family
Hello fans, at this point in time I have a very personal request. In December, an acquaintance of mine went missing and has yet to be found. He is only 17 and his family misses him dearly. So far as there hasn't been any news, I figured I'd take to other levels that aren't as close to home. If you have any information on Nathaniel Holmes please let us know anything you can. Let's try to bring Nathaniel home.

Revamping
Over the last few years, I stopped blogging. It happens. However, right now, I can't do a whole lot outside of focusing on my writing and sharing things with everyone. So I'm doing a complete revamp overhaul of all my social media for fans. Well except my twitter because I rarely use twitter as it is. What's that mean for you? Well in the upcoming months you can expect to see experts from my current work, different chunks of my research, and thoughts to the world around us and what's happening in it. I am doing a bit of traveling for some renaissance festivals here over the next month or so but even then I intend to post at least once a week if not more.
Now let me tell you a bit about what has happened since I last posted.
Last time I posted I had just started working at Walmart. I really enjoyed that job, but it was a hard job for sure. On March 29th, 2017 I stood up to go get ready for work and collapsed in pain as the labrum tore in my left hip. I spent 2 months on crutches and was put on a leave of absence at that time. In June of 2017, they couldn't keep me on leave of absence any longer and I left the company.
In May of 2017, I started working at a call center and helped AT&T customers with paying their bills and getting services back on. While working there the anxiety I'd had for years got far worse and I had too many health issues so in January of 2018 I left the company.
At the end of January of 2018, I moved from my hometown to a new city 200 miles away. It was that or be evicted. In this new city, I don't yet have a job because instead, we're trying to get my health back into a decent standing beforehand. They expect that I will need surgery on my hip, but it's taking awhile to see a surgeon for a consult due to my young age. I've been trying to get on disability since November of 2017, and have been having problems with that as the office has been extremely backed up for months. There are many days where I physically can't move from my bed because of how bad my hip will be. I hated giving up my independence, but I moved in with some of my renaissance festival friends who help me out with whatever I need right now. And for them I'm thankful.
In the last few years, I have managed to finish my novel Ashborn Academy, and have been letting it sit before editing while starting my next novel Oceanstrider. After finishing Oceanstrider I'll rip apart Ashborn and start rewrites on it and hopefully find myself an agent for it.
I haven't had a chance to work on any of my film prospects since I graduated high school, but I do intend to pick that back up when I have the chance and ability to afford a good camera and the software I'd need.
I am now sort of a performer with the renaissance festivals. At least the ones in Grand Junction, CO, and Muskogee. I may start working the Colorado Renaissance Festival as well, but it's not yet determined as we're not sure if I can make it through the season without great pain.
Slowly my art expands and I get better at it every day, but for now, I do what I can to keep my head up and adjust to my now mostly bedridden life.
