Loving the thought of being an Author

I have been spending some time reading books taking part in a reading challenge. One of my favorite authors is Anton LeVay. I don’t always agree with him but I love his energy and honesty. I have all his books, albums and everything.

An old knee injury has been slowing me down. I put my symptoms into Google and it said surgery. I said nope and read more of Anton’s book. In his book he encourages others to write. I thought about my journals from 2008 –  2021 and decided, why not. I forgot what was in the journals to be honest. Opening the first journal to get started copying it to PDF, I started laughing. It was written when I was Christian and is heavily Christian influenced. I thought it funny the inspiration to write was a Satanist author and my first book as a Satanist is my Christian Journal. I will not return to Christianity. I don’t feel it was a waste of time, but the Abraham Faiths are not a good fit for me. I decided to after reading to start writing, research how to get started. Son had to help me put in the software since we are using Linux and now I have 2 days worth of entries in it. I still need to add pictures, write an Introduction and Forward. Other than our family I am not using real names of people in the journal book. When I want to cut ties with people I erase them from my life. I have no interest reviving them or sharing anything with them. When I am done with someone, there is no coming back.

I am going to get more filming done. The elliptical feels amazing on my knee so I am going to do that. I’m going to get more writing done. Every journal will be a different book. I might even write some spicy ones.

I am still looking for pigs for the homestead. Just haven’t found a good fit. I’m not one to buy in needy energy. I listen to timing and energy. With some the pigs are champions, great bloodlines, etc but I don’t need champions really for what I am doing. We have so little time to travel and I want to inspect the hogs, so long distance ones I can’t make work. Told our son, when you are busy, boredom is a luxury. Some seem their prices are too high thinking there is a demand. If there is for them then that is good. For me, I am more looking for a good fit that feels right and I can afford.

I have hurried to find that time was a better option. Some with their beliefs make it difficult because they are set on their perspective, beliefs that might be true for them while it doesn’t align with my needs and there seems a bit of a toxicity from meddling. I personally do not believe everyone can mix and requires respectful distance. I do feel at the right time everything falls into place. The patience has added more tools, even some future opportunities. This will be an interesting process. I don’t see things as a power play, negativity or nothing like perhaps another might view me. I see things from a curious mind enjoying the process, and in that it becomes enjoyable broadly.

The pigs will be pasture pigs and I am reading books on how to understand their behavior more. I have worked with pigs, but if I can learn more it adds to the beauty of it. Thank you for reading.
