I wrote some nonfiction essays about my online dating disasters. I've led a charmed life. When I lived in Hays, KS, I went halfway across the world to meet people.
I don't recommend it. Stay local. You're better off.
In the two women I met, thing's didn't work out. I did get to see parts of the world I'd never been to. That was when I had money. Now, I'm lucky just to pay bills. But that was then, this is now. I wouldn't mind love coming into my life. Whether that happens remains to be seen...

More submissions and revisions
I sent out several submissions for short stories. I think I'm done writing these works for a while. Most of my effort has been spent having my short stories critiqued by WUTA and then revising them for eventual submission. I have a backlog of short stories. I won't get caught up until the beginning of August 2015.
I have a new rough draft staring me in the face. It's Ganbaatar. I've outlined the remaining chapters and know how long it should be. I'm guessing another 150-200 words. I'm already at page 55 of the rough draft. I'll be adding more to it in the coming weeks. I'd like to have 10 pages written a week. I don't know if that's doable. I'll see.
I also have the third draft of Kepler Falling to have critiqued by WUTA. That should take 80 weeks at 6 pages a week. That also leaves 12 weeks out for poetry at the Maya Cafe. I should work on more poetry. But I've been lazy. I do have the beginning of a chap book started on my computer. I'll see about getting that published later when I have some money to afford a printer.

Blake
