Six hours traveling, doing some work, then prepping to shake a bunch of hands and meet new folks—the ol’ conference game. That was my day and night, so writing was not in the cards. I mean, I did have some time here and there, but my head was in the […]

As predicted, no words today. I did actually have some time I could’ve used, but my head was elsewhere. I did receive some final artwork for CHILDSEEKER’S cover, which was baller! Much more incentive to now get that sucker live and shipped (at least the first installment). A weekend project, […]

I spent the small amount of time I had between work and DnD to research some small circulation fiction magazines. I’d never really considered them before, but there are a lot that accept online submissions these days (shocker!), and I feel like I should run a little gauntlet of collecting […]

1060 words today. And I think I had a specific blog topic, but I’ve now forgotten. Blast! OH YEAH! In poking around the ol’ Internet, I came across the genre of ‘Urban Fantasy,’ which is apparently a kissing cousin to ‘Paranormal Romance,’ the defining feature being the centrality of the […]

750 words today, wrote a scene in HUNTING MIDNIGHT. It was a rewrite of something that had started life as three exposition heavy paragraphs, so I quickened it with a lot more dialogue and think I solved the micro issue. The overall shape of the episode still threatens to bog […]

Yup, once again in need of a better plotline. No words today, but a bunch of notes. I had hoped that the scenes I cut some weeks ago would be able to come back and be used, but they were part of a weaker story, and cannot simply be plug […]

I don’t think I’ll be writing much today. Still a little brain-hazy from board game drinking last night (and they wanna do a double header tonight and I have said I’ll go (it’s a lot of fun shut up)), tired, etc. I need some downtime, it feels. The weekend holds […]

200 words. Had my regularly occurring board game night, which cut into some evening time. I’m writing this the day after so my memory’s a little hazy—oh yeah! Started putting more of MIDNIGHT onto my private queue on CC, as there’s been a few regular critters who seem to enjoy […]

950 new words, in the fourth installment (technically third episode) of HUNTING MIDNIGHT! I enjoyed the way it evolved and flowed, despite ignoring my own instinct to spend some time on character sketching. That still needs to be done in order to help manage the arcs I need to deliver, […]

It’s been an official week of no new words! Dang. I do feel like I’ve been tremendously productive on other fronts, it certainly was not a mopey, non-zero week. A lesson here is what happens when there’s no immediate in-progress project to work on. When I finished the last MIDNIGHT […]
