A New Begining

December 31, 2008 in Personal by Eric

2008 was a strange year for me.  So many things have changed, and I have been forced to reassess my priorities.  Honestly, I am not sure exactly how to move forward.

My life goals are simple:

  • Tell stories that are entertaining and edifying
  • Promote and preserve fan culture
  • Strive to see the world clearly
  • Act free of fear, desire, and social obligation

Lately, I am not sure which of these is my top priority anymore.  I love/need to write stories, but I have not had the time to pen fiction like I used to.  dashPunk and the Project: Shadow Informant Podcast have been taking up more and more of my time.  Time management is the bane of us all.

When I ask myself what I want to do in 2009, a clear list comes to mind:

  • Record the podcast version of Liquid Sky
  • Record the podcast version of Shine Like Thunder
  • Continue the daily podcast
  • Continue all three of my blogs
  • Write a new novel/serial.  (Phara-un or Fate’s Harrow)
  • Complete a screenplay, and plan out either a film or web series.
  • Loose weight/get healthy

For the first time in many years, I believe that I can do anything that I set my mind to, and I have to thank all of you for that.  Your kindness and support has shown me that my decade in the wilderness was not in vain.  I am not alone.  For that, I am forever greatful.

You all have done more for me than I will ever be able to repay, but I will do my best.

In 2009, I dedicate my time to my readers/listeners, without whom none of this would be possible.  It is a brand new day, and I promise to work for you all this year harder than ever.  You deserve the best, and I dedicate my time to finding and creating the best content for you.  dashPunk Media will produce the best Speculative Fiction sites on the net.  All for you.

Thank you all do very much.
