Joy was sooooo happy to see me tonight coming home after podcasting over at Josh’s. Waggy tails and lots of kisses. Coopey, too, but not as exuberant. Movie was good tonight. It was the first fully Hitchcock movie I think we’ve watched. There’s an argument to be made...

Niners won. I figured out some battle stuff in my book AND realized I’d forgot to include a character so I went back and fixed it…and also took a two hour nap after breakfast because I was so tired. Blerg. Still not quite finished with this book, but I am SO DAMN...

Well…the writing groove is more like a rollercoaster. I only wrote 10 pages today. Burned out after three hours instead of the normal 5. Oof. BUT…it’s better than nothing, and I am still feeling the groove. It’s momentum, really. The end is near. I just need to keep...

With relief, I can say I’m back in the writing groove. 19 pages today. Got through one of the major battle scenes. Or, I guess, one part of the major battle. There’s another part to come. Hopefully it’s thrilling. Getting really, really close to the end. Don’t know if...

I just saw a memory that reminded me today is Coco’s gotcha day. September 18, 2014. It’s sad to not be able to share another one with her, and it’s sad to me that I only got to spend 8 with her. That’s not enough. Not fair. But, really, I just miss her. Joy is in her...

Today was a recuperation day. I was due for one, to be honest. I got 20 pages written yesterday, and I hit the wall today. But, this is a marathon and not a sprint. I’d estimate I have five or six more 20-page days before I finish the damn thing…and I can’t do that...

Eighteen pages today. I could push here and get to exactly twenty, but I’m set up nicely for what to write tomorrow morning already, it should go pretty quickly because it’s an exciting, fast-paced scene, or set of scenes, and I’d think I’d rather go to sleep early. I...

Project is DONE. Almost. Whew. Across the finish line juuuusssttttt in time. I worked hard today. Hard this week. And I really, really want to have a dope ass writing day tomorrow, so I’m going to bed right on time. It’s so nice and cool right now, which is very odd...

Joy under the covers again. She’s such a SNUGGLE. She came over while I was eating lunch today and snuggled up against me. It made me MELT. And Coops, tonight, while we were out eating dinner and watching TV, he was up snuggled against my pillow, taking a snooze. He’s...

I had homemade Boston Cream Pie for dinner, and then we sat down and watched a movie. I enjoyed it! Since the unions are on strike, I’ll refrain from posting exactly what it was, but Chris Pine was delightful in it. Hopefully that’s enough for me to remember years in...
