I need to improve at compartmentalizing. Dominoes fall during my day, and I’m not always that good at keeping them from setting off a cascade of derailment. That is a skill. I *can* be better at it. It’s just going to take some work. My parent’s dog, Jojo, is very...

Sigh. Today was a big fail on the writing front. I’m just too anxious, guys, and that’s okay. I know exactly what the source of that “anxiety” is...it’s actually excitement, if you decide to put a positive spin on it, and it’s because exciting things are happening!...

I had a really, really good day off. YEEEESSSSS. I have this new system that I’m trying to learn and get down, guys, that should lead to anxiety-free (or at least WORK anxiety-free) down time...it’s called “Getting Things Done” (yes, I know, suuuper on-the-nose name...

The Ho and I went and saw Joe in a play tonight. I do not get to see that man often enough. Miss him. Good lord. He was great. Several of his castmates were freaking fantastic. We had a great time. And, we got to hang with him and everyone else afterwards at the bar...

I wrote word today. 550 of them. And they were goooood, if not a ton of them. New ideas today. Which is what happens when I learn to stop worrying and love the bomb (that’s a movie reference - points if you know which one). Otherwise did a crap-ton of release and a...

No words again today. I don't know why I've started my last two blogs like this; this reminder of failure starting off an entry on what was otherwise an insanely productive day. I made the choice today (and yesterday) to clear my plate of other duties first. Maybe...

I wrote no words today except those in my head. A nice little scene between Suzy and Barry came to mind... Instead, I did Netflix work and I did an editing pass on what will be the final manuscript for Starstuff. Even after four passes with editors, there were still...

Guys. GUYS. The new Blade Runner is so freaking good. Holy crap. I am on record as saying that as a movie...meaning the whole package, including story, characters and dialogue...the original Blade Runner is totally overrated. It’s a decent movie at best,...

I hit some overload today. It happens. Too much to compute. On those days, usually, I kind of fold up and don’t really get anything done, but not today. I got a decent amount of work done. It’s because of the book launch. It’s a week away, and that’s scary, but I’m...
