Life is so expensive, man. Everything cost money. Wrote and worked like a madman today. I did three full writing sessions. Three hours. That’s the most I’ve done in I can’t even remember how long. And I got GOOD work done, too. This outlining is taking me way longer...

I did my work today...but I didn’t get any *extra* done, which I’m both perturbed by and perturbed that I’m perturbed. Like...I don’t have to do extra, you know? It should be OKAY to just do what I set out to do and keep it at that. Plus, I have time to do more extra...

It’s kind of crazy if you think about it: the Original Series cast of Trek made six movies together. Of those six, there are definitely highs and lows...but the only outright BAD film out of all of them is Star Trek V. The rest are all pretty damn good. The rest of...

#stopasianhate The above is the main message today. It’s a persistent, constant fear for so many of the people I love. Being attacked. Nobody helping. Nobody speaking up. So, I will help. I will speak up. We must all act together to stop this infuriating, sickening...

What a WEEKEND. Fam is back out of town again and home. We’re quite spread up and down the coast, my family. I definitely don’t see them as much as I’d like to, and especially not this past year. It’s been a long time, now, since I went up home to Humboldt,...

We went to a backyard movie night tonight and it was AWESOME. Movie projected up on a big sheet screen hung on a fence, all of us in lawn chairs with blankets and pizza, drinks, and snacks...it was heaven. Heaven. I want to do it again. We watched Godzilla vs. King...

Family is in town. I haven’t seen them in literally a year. It’s so nice to be together again. It’s really late. Gonna sleep now. Try to get eight hours. Night!

Holy jesus. Today was non-stop. I got...almost everything done. This weekend will be pretty damn non-stop as well. Bring it on. Wrote. Worked. Client work. Dropped some stuff off. Took care of the pups. Podcasted. It was...a long day. A great day. Night!

I got stuck today. Pfizer vaccine dose 1 of 2. Honestly? Low key emotional about it. It’s one step, a huge one really, toward “normal.” Intellectually, I could imagine things going back to normal from the very beginning of this pandemic. I could see how that would...

Right now, setting up story is painful. That’s where I am in the process of writing my current book: setting things up. There’s so much unknown, so much detail to fill in, so much *I* don’t know yet about my characters, and it’s so easy for me to write outside of the...
