27 Update – I don’t even know what opus really means

DAY 43 – (July 16, 2016) – A month and a half. Or roughly. A month and a half I’ve been writing on this book, this book that is being written for myself only. I knew it was for myself when I started back writing on it forty-three days ago. It’s probably why I’ve been able to write on it as much as I have. I’ve been thinking I might put it back for my kids to read years and years down the road. My opus, as it were in whatever way it might be, is something that should be handed down, I think. I’ve had three books published and that’s probably enough for me. It’s not bad for a hillbilly who’s been poor his whole life and pretty much taught himself how to write (no offense college folk, but I kind of didn’t learn much with you all). I learned by reading continuously for the last thirty years. Oh, yeah, and by writing a million or so words. Anyway, maybe the book will be good and maybe it will be published but I’m just not on that page right now. I’m on some other page. Total words: 542.
