It’s another short entry tonight because it’s already almost 1am... But I was super stressed out yesterday and this morning that I wasn’t going to get done what I wanted and needed to get done for work...but I did. I got enough done AND got myself a little extension...

I. Am. ZONKED. I worked 12 hours today at the Flix. Have a project that needs getting done, and I just wasn’t going to get there unless I put in some extra time. Might have to do the same tomorrow...we’ll see. I hope not 😛 Hopefully the up and ups like the work I’m...

The ability to know when a scene is or isn’t working is a skill. It’s definitely one I have yet to master...but, I do have the sense most of the time with my writing. It’s not always clear what to DO about a scene that isn’t working, but at the very least, I usually...

It’s been a while since I had a writing day like today. Over two years, maybe? Something like that. I think almost three years. Today was a day where I wrote and I was...in the flow. Like, fully in the flow. I was just telling the story, and I knew it worked, and I...

You know...talking about this today with Josh regarding not posting my entry last night, it really reinforced something to me about the number of these entries that I talked about recently with my therapist, and something I’ve kept in mind for a while now, a lesson...

Never posted this entry last night! Twas a brief one, anyway 😛 Solid ending to a solid week. I really, truly was expecting the realization that there are still major changes to be made to my book because of lingering ‘bad ideas’ to be more...I dunno...depressing....

Man, up and down day. I was really, really worried you guys that my minor epiphany last night about carrying bad ideas for too long was really going to sink me into a depression... But it didn’t. I woke up feeling...normal. And my session with my editor went really...

I sit here tonight listening to Gravel Road (which came on randomly...bless the stars), thinking about the inertia of bad ideas. I read a blog post from Hugh Howey, an accomplished author whose work is good enough that I listen when he talks, about that concept up...
