Day 2,500: Pandaversary

Day 2,500: Pandaversary

Liz and I started going steady 16 years ago today (give or take a couple days). It was our “anniversary” for ten years before we got married and our anniversary became the 6th. But we still celebrate it now because we have for so long. Pretty amazing. We just...

Day 2,499: And The Writing Was Good…

Day 2,499: And The Writing Was Good…

The writing was good today. Hasn’t been all too frequent I could say that over the past couple years, but the writing was good today. I finished a scene—really finished—that I’ve been wrestling with since I started writing this new book. It works now. I love it now....

Day 2,498: Again…

Day 2,498: Again…

Again...it’s already sleepy time and I’m sitting here writing my entry for the night. Sigh. Need to get better at that. Tomorrow! Work was buuusssyyyy today. I thought maybe this week would be a bit less intense. Nope. But, that’s okay. I’m keeping my head above...

Day 2,497: Accessories

Day 2,497: Accessories

So, we bought a camera about a week ago. Our first REAL camera. We’ve been using our iphones to take photos now for the past ten years. I’ve never had a CAMERA camera before. Now we do. It’s called a Sony a6400, and it’s really cool. Got a good deal on it—a great one,...

Day 2,496: Reset

Day 2,496: Reset

I feel like I had a reset this weekend. Thank you LORD. I needed it. Bit time. Or big time. Whatever. I was able to “get back to normal” this weekend in a way that I haven’t felt in...weeks? Like, I’m sitting here in bed with new sheets, the cover blanket has been...

Day 2,495: Listening Hardcore

Day 2,495: Listening Hardcore

Wiped OUT. More than I should be 😂 but...I think I just wasn’t used to recording our podcast in person, and being out that late and then having a decently full day today just took it out of me. Got to see my goddaughter today. It’s so freaking weird and...

Day 2,494: Podcasting Foo

Day 2,494: Podcasting Foo

Podcasting with Josh tonight in person for the first time since March. Damn. Crazy. It was dope. There is nothing like the energy and chemistry we have working together in person. It was like we never left. And at the same time, like it had been forever. It’s super...

Day 2,493: Brief

Day 2,493: Brief

Brief tonight, because it’s late and I’m wiped. Wiped for no major reason except that I just woke up tired. I think it’s because I’m close to finishing this work project, and it never fails: finishing energy is the most expensive energy. The most valuable, yes, but it...

Day 2,492: This Is What It Looks Like

Day 2,492: This Is What It Looks Like

This is what it looks like, guys and gals, to be learning a craft. The struggling, the self doubt, the breakthroughs, the failure and the triumph, and most of all the obsession. I think about my writing every day. Most of the day. Even when I’m not thinking about it,...
