Good morning, Readers!

So, a lot of things happened yesterday. The first, most exciting one, is that the Amazing Flatmate and I are moving to a new apartment. It's a town house, actually, with three floors and three bedrooms. You see, she has a business making costumes, and she needs the space for an office/work room. Bedroom number three is that space.
For the record, I'm one of those people for whom change is extraordinarily difficult. My fear of change had me in some very unhealthy situations for far too long. Moving house is particularly stressful, for some reason. I once lived in an unfinished basement in a house full of awful people for years. Years. Until it got so toxic I fled... but not before gaining a tonne of weight due to stress and depression.
I have stayed in horrid relationships to the point of wanting to throw myself off a tall building even though I knew the relationship was horrid... It just seemed better than the alternative at the time.
That's how much I hate change.
That said, change has almost always been great for me. I've left abusive "friendships". I've found an amazing job that pretty much lets me work towards my writing goals. Forced change had me moving in with someone who is one of my best friends.
And, it's time. And there's a lot to look forward to, and the new place is really very lovely.
I'm going to be stressed as hell, though.
Also in newsy news, I had a look at the almost finished book cover for Human. I'm really excited about the reveal, guys! Of course, subscribers will get first look at the cover. And once I have the cover, I can finish the book trailer... which I'm rather proud of. That should go up next month... ish.
Also in brand new news, I have a friend who believes in my writing so much, he's offered to become an investor... in my writing. This is so surreal and flattering and a little odd for me, so I'm going to take some time to really think it over.
Alright. That's enough rambling. I really have a lot of work to do, so I'll just go ahead and sign off now.
Ciao!
