Day 4,169: Sorry Son
Late! My goodness. Not too bad, but almost pillow time so we’ll make this a quick one. Adolescence on Netflix. Watch. It. Heavy, but absolutely spectacular. Looking forward to all the awards it will win, and rightly so. Writing today was solid again. I’m “behind” the...
Day 4,168: Orange and Jasmine
The air is perfumed tonight with orange and jasmine blossoms. Cool, too, with low misty clouds and a tiny little breeze. Which is to say: it is gorgeous out there. I wish I could spend more time outside. It is hands-down my favorite month to live in LA, with April...
Day 4,167: NoNap
How often do I say no to things that would interfere with my goals? This question makes me think of the advice “you have to learn to say no.” Early on, that never made sense to me. I say no to stuff all the time. I’ve never had a particularly hard time saying no. But...
Day 4,166: Herr Knock
It’s late! Almost time for sleeps. I did the thing tonight where I started reading with the intention of finishing something—the first act of Titus Andronicus oooweee does that one start out a little rough, eh?—and suddenly it was almost time to get ready for bed. I...
Day 4,165: Here and There
What an odd day. I, man…outside of this morning, I kinda floated through the day. Which is weird! Because I got shit done. I got the writing done I needed to, and it was a massive sequence I had no idea really how I was going to get through it. Really disturbing...
Day 4,164: Daydream
I guess today was a recovery day. We watched F1. Lewis won the sprint race. It was so nice to see. He’s still got it. He just needs the right car. Not sure if he has it, but we’ll see. It’s still so early. Watched Wrexham beat Stockport. Put us back up into second...
Day 4,163: Bangers
Super late because we podcasted late today—we spent two solid hours going through each and every Hitchcock film we’d watched just to make sure we remembered what happened in each one of them—…but it was a good night. We watched The Game. Apparently a decent number of...
Day 4,162: Hurricane Popcorn
Another day of scenes not death! Not quite as far as I intended to go, but that doesn’t matter. Not in the slightest. The whole point of the eight scenes or death was simply to get into the groove…and I have. Whew. I’m, like, a week away from finishing this outline....
Day 4,161: The Groove
It wasn’t death today; it was eight scenes. Woohoo! Today was the writing day I’ve known for quite some time that I could hit, but just struggled so much to do so for some reason. It started with getting up on time, for sure. I was two thirds of the way through my...
Day 4,160: Five Thirty
I died again today. I didn’t finish eight scenes…but I did get started. And that’s something. Eight scenes tomorrow or DEATH. I choose eight scenes.
