Day 1,660: Dramaz

Day 1,660: Dramaz

Ugh. Drama fo yo mama. We're watching another building this week, and there were shenanigans over there that had to be attended to. Mussed up our evening! Luckily, I'd done alllllmost everything I needed to do today already. I wrote 2,000 words and only missed my last...

Day 1,659: 3K Day

Day 1,659: 3K Day

My streak of Mondays continued today! I wrote 3,000 words, and I did it honestly without toooo much effort. I just set my timers, and I wrote. It does help that I'm writing an interesting section of the book, where some dominoes that I've set up are finally falling....

2018 Movie #25: Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

2018 Movie #25: Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

The Rock, Kevin Hart, Jack Black and the actress who plays Nebula in Guardians and Avengers...all playing high school kids trapped in adult bodies? YES. I AM IN. Full stop, wanted to see this movie since it premiered, and I was not disappointed. THE BLURB: Four high...

Day 1,658: Movie Night!

Day 1,658: Movie Night!

Tonight was movie night! 🙂 We had Aaron and Marie over, and we watched Jumangi: Welcome to the Jungle. It was really good, and the company was even better. I wrote juuuust shy of 1,000 words today, and I'm going to go for 3,000 words tomorrow, give or take. That...

Day 1,657: Long Lost

Day 1,657: Long Lost

Today was a raw day. Not sure why...it just was. I did a lot of reading. I watched a movie, Lion, and wrote a review of it. It was an Oscar contender a couple years ago, and I can see why. It's not a perfect movie, but what it lacks in the middle are more than made up...

2018 Movie #24: Lion

2018 Movie #24: Lion

Lion is based on one of the more incredible true stories I've ever heard, quite frankly. Does the film live up to that incredible story? Mostly, yes. THE BLURB: Five year old Saroo gets lost on a train which takes him thousands of miles across India, away from home...

Day 1,656: Pickups

Day 1,656: Pickups

It was a stressful day today. And not just for me and the Ho, for pretty much everyone on in television. But, such is life in Hollywood, sigh. I wrote good words today despite it all. Red Tower is finally, finally churning along. I'm ready for it to start sliding...

Day 1,655: Vidz

Day 1,655: Vidz

Man, I spent all day today putting together a 10-minute video. Le sigh. That's what it took, I suppose. The video was worth it. It's a very, VERY quick summary of our vacation. You have no idea. We have literally hours worth of videos and photos from that trip, and I...

Day 1,654: Who’s Counting?

Day 1,654: Who’s Counting?

For whatever reason, it strikes me as odd this evening that I still count my blog days. It goes back to the 90-day challenge I first committed to 3-and-a-half years ago. I numbered them then to make sure I did it for 90 days, and the convention just stuck, I guess. I...

Day 1,653: 3k Day

Day 1,653: 3k Day

Guys...I wrote 3,000 words today. Whaaaaaaaat. Liz asked me how I did it, what was the difference? It was a combination of two things: one, writing every day for the past two weeks (?), three weeks (?), and two, I'm setting story goals instead of word- or page-count...
