Day 1,795: Anaheim

Day 1,795: Anaheim

We went down today to Anaheim to watch the A's play. We lost. Dammit! Not playing so hot down the stretch here to end the season--at least not scorching hot, anyway--but 🤷‍♂️ The Yankees won, which means that the Wild Card game will now be...

Day 1,794:

Day 1,794:

Day 13 of 90: I wrote today and I played golf with Josh. 434 words of outlining. I finished the book. Story-wise. I got to the end. It's still rough. I'm not at the ending I want. But, that will come with the rewrites. That will come. Golf was awesome, as were the...

Day 1,793: Odd Day

Day 1,793: Odd Day

Today was an odd day. I didn't feel like I earned my "off" day in the middle of the week because I wrote so few words yesterday, but I also had a mine to treat it as such anyway, given that I'm trying to establish a pattern. It ended up kind of in between. I did some...

Day 1,792: Outlining and Flo

Day 1,792: Outlining and Flo

I wrote today, outlining for the rest of the draft I'm on. I also went to see Florence and the Machine with Bear. She was amaaazing. As always. It's now 1am. Time to sleep 😜 More tomorrow. G'night.

Day 1,791: Back in the Postseason

Day 1,791: Back in the Postseason

The A's are back in the postseason. I know that probably doesn't mean squat to about 99% of you...but it means a lot to me. I've been an A's fan since I was ten years old. They haven't won a World Series since I've been a fan, but they have won one since I've been...

Day 1,790: Lost Spirits Redux

Day 1,790: Lost Spirits Redux

Today was day 9 of 90. 1/10th of the way there! I wrote a couple hundreds words today, finished out this chapter I'm working on. Tomorrow is a "full" day of writing. Hoping to hit 4,000 words. I actually am closing in on the final several chapters of the book....

Day 1,789: Quickie

Day 1,789: Quickie

Doing a quick entry tonight: today was a lot of fun. Slept in a bit, then walked Coops and had breakfast, and then it was time to head downtown. Liz was doing a podcast recording for this show called Dead Pilots Society where they doing a reading for pilots that were...

Day 1,788: Solid

Day 1,788: Solid

I had a solid work day today. Three thousand words. Plus, I got all my other tasks done today, too. It was a good day. A wonderful way to end the week, and a bit of a relief, too, because I was tired today. I was teetering on the edge of failure all day, and I pushed...

Day 1,787: Golf Day

Day 1,787: Golf Day

Today was day 6 of 90. I wrote 112 words, and my exercise was a round of golf with Josh...which was glorious. First the writing: I imagined and outlined the first scene I will write tomorrow. It's very clear. I should be able to bang it out. Wish me luck. Golf was so...

Day 1,786: Four K Day

Day 1,786: Four K Day

I wrote over 4,000 words today for the first time in almost a month, I think. Pains me to write that, but it's true. And because it's true, we let go of the pain and move on. This draft will be finished. Soon. Rewrites after that, of course, but it will be another...
