Pretty amazing that it's nearly May, huh? The latest (and possibly last!) chapter of "Short Stories for Short Attentions Spans" is live. Feel free to check it out, leave a comment, give it a star, and enjoy. I recommend going to the bathroom before you read it.

Hi Joseph I've really been enjoying reading your work.  You're a talented writer and manage to get a lot of detail into a short amount of space. Your characters are really dynamic.  Your stories kind of remind me of a Norman Rockwell painting.  They're mostly wholesome, charming, and familiar, but each with their own quirkiness.

@KRRodriguez Whoa, that is a pretty long break! But I'm sure you stayed productive. I am working on a novel as well that's maybe got about 8-9 chapters done, although to be perfectly honest I haven't done much reviewing and editing of it so they could all be terrible. But maybe it'll end up on here sometime before the end of the year. Fingers crossed.

@josephcurrency yes I am currently working on another story, I'm hoping to have it on wattpad by the summer. Trying to keep my momentum up. After my first novel I took way too long of a break (~8 years! ?). Do you write longer stories? My short story game could use some work.

@KRRodriguez Thanks so much, K! That really means a lot. I've never been compared to a Norman Rockwell painting but I think I need to include that on my resume from now on. I've enjoyed reading Love and Lucha, too...are you working on your next novel now or taking a little bit of a break?

It's nice to meet you on Wattpad.  I look forward to reading  your short stories even if I don't have a short attention span.  My sister in law lives in Austin. I haven't seen much of it but what I have makes me glad she lives in Austin and not in other parts of TX.
