so many projects

I noticed I haven't been posting here about RL, so here's a cross-post from my work-related blogs:

I've been super busy lately, working on...

+ getting my book sold in all the locally-owned bookshops (yay!)

+ creating a workshop called "Getting the Sex Life You Always Wanted" for a shop here in Santa Cruz: http://www.purepleasureshop.com/events.php

+ creating a second guided meditation mp3 to share on my website - Balancing Your Chakras

+ Meeting Annie Sprinkle and implementing a lot of her suggestions of people to talk to and things to do

+ setting up a group of local small businesswomen to brainstorm collectively and see where we can work together

+ working at a convention for my erotica publisher

+ writing!

No wonder I feel a little stressed out and overwhelmed. I'm learning that I need to schedule not just some me-time but also writing time, meditating time, and Thinking About What I Really Want Next time.

Putting together the meditation and workshop has had the amusing benefit of forcing me to listen to the things coming out of my mouth and realize that I need to apply those points to my own life, too! Funny how giving advice and suggestions like that always gives me a head-up about what I need to be working on, too! :)

Oh man, meeting Annie Sprinkle!! You are a lucky, lucky girl. You have done such an amazing job with your book. Writing, publishing, marketing! Good for you!

She was so nice, and so sincerely sweet! We walked out dogs together. :)

Thanks for the encouragement - sometimes I forget to take a moment to appreciate what I've done. Thanks for celebrating with me.

You met Annie Sprinkle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *squees like mad*

Make sure you schedule time for yourself.

I was going crazy the other day, unable to concentrate on what for me was some very difficult reading for uni, and then I hit on the solution to my head-nodding, non-studying.

Quick wank, very satisfying double orgasm, and I was back to work, burning up the pages.

The moral of the story, do not over-schedule to the point of neglecting your masturbation.

This message was brought to you by the "Procrastination when I'm supposed to be writing and essay" thread of my brain.

She was awesome. Kind and generous and very sincere. :)

Never neglect masturbation time - noted! Wise tips from a wise woman. Just think how much less cranky we would all be if we stopped and had a wank every time we got tense....

It's great - I feel like I'm on the cusp of making this work. :)
