A dramatic post title for a pretty uneventful day all around. Still fighting sickness, so I hermitted and binged Stranger Things 2. Made some plot notes for Ep4 and wrote 112 words in the opening scene so I didn’t have a zero. Other than that, dug up some old (well, […]

With all current stories drafted, and only a large seas of plotting in my future, I found I needed to crank out a Reddit writing prompt story in order to ensure I wrote something today. In 808 words (in an hour or less, it came quickly!) I wrote Blueprints. Also […]

After spending the better part of the day in recovery, I crawled out to the computer and pecked away until 2,366 words completed Hunting Midnight, Episode Three: The Trouble with Vines. Freakin’ finally. It ended up way longer than intended at just over 25,000 words, which makes it longer than […]

Crap, got sick. The buzzing feeling kept me up all last night, and during that time whatever immune system bullshit the holidays bestowed upon + dem damn pathogens have gotten into my throat. Had to take the day off, may goon the rest of the week. Scraped out 316 words […]

I usually try to drink only 2 cups of coffee per day, and both before noon, lest I tend to have even crappier sleeps compared to the spotty snoozin’ performance I already endure. Today I did three (before noon… I’m a madman, I know), and maybe the office brew is […]

A day like any other, so it feels, ‘cept I emerged out of bed at around 3pm… Yet not feeling too bad despite getting in after 4am last night, heh. And before 6pm, I’d written 850 words. Energy is admittedly low, but I didn’t want the first log in the […]

I wrote about 2,090 words today. Possibly more later if there’s time and inspiration between now and going out. Most of the year’s major reflections are in this post: 2017 in review, so: see you on the the other side!

With an action sequence plotted out in nice, poignant bullet points, adding the meat to the bones is quite the fun task. So much so that I was able to ease into about 1,440 words with little stoppage, finding the “old” character voices quickly; slotting back into the story was […]

Yeah! For the first time in what seems like an age, I added some story bits to Hunting Midnight. I am just about to the turn the corner on the climax of episode three, and had to smooth a few things out in order to set it up. It amounted […]

Today’s productive energy was spent on building a spreadsheet for 2018. I’ve used various sheets to track writing, gym logs, and budgets… but always separately and never across the course of a year. So, I’m making one that combines all these things, with some built in fun formulas and–eventually–charts. I […]
