You few. You happy few.
As I’m working on Tinker related projects, I occasionally find my way back to this site to remember a name or whether I had certain things happen before certain other things — Jogging my memory of my own words.
I get surprised, however, to find that there are still people checking in with this page. Today, for some unknown reason, there have been 18 unique visits. I get a similar feeling of joy and honor when new people are still signing up to be fans on the tinker facebook page. Every time I think that I’ll never get this done, something comes along and reminds me that people really LIKED my characters. They looked forward to seeing what I was going to do next with the story.
Things are a different now from that year I dedicated hours every Wednesday and Thursday to make Tinker happen. My job is different. I met a girl and we are now engaged. But I know that while I can’t promise it’ll be done soon (even if it IS National Novel Writing Month), I was reminded today that I need to get this done. You guys keep asking me about the world I built — and I can’t just leave it there.
If you guys want to keep my fire stoked, leave me some love. I literally have been trying to shove writing time in between responsibilities and that pesky thing they call sleep that I’m trying to investigate from time to time. Leave comments here on the blog, write me at vonclockverk@gmail.com, or become a fan of us on facebook. If you’re already a fan — stop by and share something you liked about the story. You guys are what feeds my desire to keep going. Without you, I don’t think it would ever get done.
To those of you that are either just discovering what I did, or are checking in the hopes that I post something new — thank you. It really does mean a lot to me.
