What You HAVE To Do

I have one more story
I HAVE to write
for release this year.

The release day
is December.
I started writing it
this week.

Why did I write
this story next?

Because it frees me.
If an opportunity comes up,
I can take it,
no hesitation,
no guilt.

The stories I write
after this one
will be for ME.
Yes, I’ll publish them.
Yes, I’ll sell them fiercely.
But they will be bonus stories,
not key to my world domination plans.

If you HAVE to do something,
do it now.
Do it first.

Then you’re free.
