Day 924: Changes
Change is in the wind, my friends. Good changes. Not bad ones. But the Ho and I were just talking about how change, regardless of whether it's good or bad...is always stressful. Invariably. Today was a good day, you guys. Finally. It was a day where I set out my...
Day 923: Priorities…
The Ho and I talked a lot about priorities today. What's important to us, where we're headed, what we want and how to get it. I find myself sitting here right now thinking about priorities because I yet again didn't make my writing one of them. And I'm exhausted. Life...
Day 922: All At Once
You know how they say it never rains, but it pours...that's been the last couple weeks 😛 So much is going on! Liz's grandmother passed away early this morning. She told me at like 1:30 last night, but apparently it didn't register because I rolled over and continued...
Day 921: Directed-practice
I finished this podcast today from the folks at Freakonomics. If you're not familiar, check them out. They did a documentary feature, like, a decade ago, but I believe they first burst onto the scene with a book of the same name. Anyway, they've now been doing this...
Day 920: Quickie
This one has to be quick, because it's 1am. Worked. Wrote my pages. Missy came into town. We watched Captain America: Civil War and it was GREAT. That is all...
Day 919: Werk
Man, today was an exhausting day for several reasons, but I got some WORK done today. I'm allllmmooosstttt caught up to where I'm supposed to be. Almost. I made up ground today. Halleloo Some apartment stuff caught me flat-footed today, which was a little stressful,...
Day 918: Oh, the stories
Man, today was a day to remember. I got to do things today that I've never done before. Unfortunately, I can't really talk about them because I literally swore myself to secrecy. Signed an NDA and all that. That's "non-disclosure agreement" for those of us not living...
Day 917: A Ho is Born
Today was my wifey's birthday and we spent all day together. It was a *grand* time. Woke up, and was getting ready to do a pretty full day of editing work...and realized that was a terrible idea. I should just rearrange everything so that I'm working Tuesday through...
Day 916: Two Days Behind
So, I'm "two days" and six pages behind on my novel. Writing didn't happen today. It just didn't. I didn't make the time. I didn't have the time, to be honest. Too much puppy time, too much apartment time, and too much working time (on a weekend, I know!). But, you...
Day 915: Speeds You Along
Hemmingway used to write and teach all the time about keeping it "simple." That short, concise sentences were the key to profundity. I just read an article that seems to verify that, and it makes me think about my own writing. This article I read had a great quote in...
