I’m now living in San Francisco, and by that I have to lessen
my writing every day, actually, I’m lucky to write a thousand words per day.
God, there is so much to do here, I mean, I’m a nurse in my home country but I
need to take a few exams before I can take the exam that would approve me of license
in California. My head aches just thinking of it, seriously…
I have to take Toefl, if you don’t
know that it’s an English proficiency exam. I have already taken it but I failed
in speaking, not really failed but I haven’t met the requirement grade to pass
it in the state I’m applying at, which is 26. And do you know what my score
was? 18. Bleeping 18. I stuttered a lot in the exam and wasn’t prepared, I became
lax in practicing. To be honest I haven’t practiced at all, like nothing. But
now I’m practicing very very hard with the speaking section, and preparing for
the retake exam this February. Pray that I pass, I’m begging you. Anyway I
passed the reading, listening and writing sections with flying colors.
So that’s why I don’t write that
much, not until I passed my exams. If I passed them and have a nursing job in
the city then I’ll be writing like a freak again. I’d be publishing a book
every month.
And my sales froze, as in they are
dead now. So I’m going to make my very first installment in my Trinity Nexus
Series free. Yeah, that’s right, my labor of love I’d be registering for free.
Can you believe that? I reckon than if I got a nursing job then it would
surpass my monthly allowance from indie publishing easily (not unless if I write
erotica, if you know what I mean).
I’ve been working on a few titles,
one of them entitled “Sandmen” and the other is the continuation of The Gamer.
That’s all for now.
