Day 1,836: New iPad Who Dis?
Um, new iPad, who dis? I got my new iPad today when I got home from the conference. Huzzah! Hip hop hooray! This keyboard is definitely going to take some getting used to...it is a bit smaller...but I'll get used to it 🙂 It's basically the same size as the keyboard...
Day 1,835: Why?
Why go to an industry conference/convention? The answer isn't really the panels and seminars. That is *part* of why you go, but I honestly mean it's only like 10% of it. The real reason is you go for the bar chats later that night. For reals. THAT is where connections...
Day 1,834: Quickie
Quick quick one tonight bc it's midnight and I have to get up again at 6:30 in the morning. But I had an excellent excellent day today at the conference. I met so many new people, learned so many new things, and I am so so glad I'm here. More tomorrow. Promise. Good...
Day 1,833: Veegaaasss
Guys. I made it to Vegas. I left at the buttcrack today. Practically. Butt crack for me, anyway. But there was a volunteers luncheon for the conference, and I wanted to be there. I got there just in time! I drove straight from LA to there, and I just made it. Thanks,...
Day 1,832: Omg so much
Omg. I did so much today. Jesus. I'm ready to go to Vegas for the 20 Books conference. Two years ago, an author by the name of Michael Anderle set a goal to write 20 books so he could make $50K a year off them. This was based off what he was selling per day with his...
“By Any Other Name” – Chapter 5
The events of this story take place in the Starstuff Universe some years before (or after?) those of the Starstuff Trilogy. Peep woke me when the first of the crowd showed up. One by one, they came shuffling into the elevator chamber, hardly even looking at me. They...
“By Any Other Name” – Chapter 4
The events of this story take place in the Starstuff Universe some years before (or after?) those of the Starstuff Trilogy. The crowd was silent. I was standing with my mouth open. Balta, the legend of PMC-117 was a woman. An old one at that. And crazy. Only now did I...
“By Any Other Name” – Chapter 3
The events of this story take place in the Starstuff Universe some years before (or after?) those of the Starstuff Trilogy. “You’re a thief, aren’t you?” In the low light of the chamber, I could see a dirty face behind the golden gun. It was smeared with dirt,...
Day 1,831: Halfway…
Well...today wasn't quite the beast-slaying I wanted it to be when I imagined it last night...but it was a success. Several things made themselves very clear today, and let me also say that I wrote 4,000 words. And good words. I wasn't all that happy with my words...
Day 1,830: Slay the Beast
Tomorrow, I'm attempting somewhat to slay the beast. It's been a long, long time since I had a marathon writing day. They're an important part of ye old writing life. Certainly not something to rely on the REGULAR...but there comes a point in any project where the...
