Day 2,312: Backflips For Tragic

Day 2,312: Backflips For Tragic

Thumbing it on the iPhone tonight. Took the WiFi down so I could upload something important overnight with JUST the modem, no router no WiFi no any single other device connected to cause any sort of slowdown or congestion…and we’ll see how it does. Right now, it says...

Day 2,311: Coming Along

Day 2,311: Coming Along

Glory passed the five figure mark this month. Not too shabby given that it’s just the one book and nobody in military scifi has ever heard of me. Let’s be real…no one has ever heard of me, ever. Lol. Seriously, there’s something kind of cool about that, to be honest....

Day 2,310: Vanilla

Day 2,310: Vanilla

Another very productive day. Another very tired Ira. Whew. Been non-stop now for three days in a row. I’m very, VERY close to not being so insane. Whew! I really don’t have much to write about tonight except that I handled my shit today, and I’m exhausted. Pups are...

Day 2,309: Up To My Ears

Day 2,309: Up To My Ears

Whew. Worked all day today, too, right up until about ten minutes ago. Sigh. But, it was another VERY productive day. I’m getting back on track. Good writing week. I wrote 60 pages even throughout all the (good) disruptions and extra curriculars. It’s crazy, this week...

Day 2,308: 6,402

Day 2,308: 6,402

I wrote 25 pages today. That’s 6,402 words. Gawdam. I did it so I wouldn’t have to write any words tomorrow (I probably will, still, but I don’t have to). I have other work I have to do tomorrow, so it’s unfortunately not a day off…but still. I. Am. WIPED. OUT. So...

Day 2,307: Hectic

Day 2,307: Hectic

Hectic week. Sigh. Next week should be less so. I need it to be. I know it’s going to start out busy on the work front, but if I get my shit done this weekend, that won’t be no thang. I had beaujelais with mcdonald’s tonight and it DELICIOUS. The first beaujelais I’ve...

Day 2,306: Odesza

Day 2,306: Odesza

Got to see Odesza at the Forum tonight with, like, twenty thousand other people. It was awesome. Great show. We have one more concert to attend later this year…and it might be that we saved the best for last: Moderat. One of my *genuine* favorite acts. I’m so excited....

Day 2,305: Particularly Proud

Day 2,305: Particularly Proud

I have to say that I’m particularly proud of myself today. The writing very nearly went off the rails. I could have swallowed a big fat zero because of some poor planning on my part, fatigue, and a ton of stuff that was outside of my control. My rhythm was all kinds...

Day 2,304: Hijacked

Day 2,304: Hijacked

Today was hijacked, unfortunately; both by things I’d scheduled and thus were completely my fault, but also by some things beyond my control. It happens. I just need to get my ass up on time and dive back into the writing. wish me luck, and you have a nice evening....

Day 3,203: Economic Incentives

Day 3,203: Economic Incentives

Solid writing day. Glory speeds toward her adventure. Many many words left to write; I’m alllllmost halfway. Busy day tomorrow, which is annoying, but it’s all shit I have to do. So, I’ll do it! I’ll try to aim toward a half writing day, I think. We’ll see. Wish me...
