If you’ve noticed the post date versus the post title, you’ll see that–once again–I’m behind. At least it’s only a day behind, this time. đ I spent the afternoon with a good friend, and it was an awesome afternoon. I’m going...

Hello, everyone! I hope the days have been treating you well. The past few days, I’ve been slipping a little bit on the ‘people’ side of these posts, and while I may not always say so, I do hope the days treat you as well as possible. Yes… I...

Thursday was another underwhelming day of writing. The Escape I inherited from my mom had its own car appointment yesterday, and I figured it would be easy to duplicate the thousand words from Monday and set myself up for a good word count. Yeah… not so much....

I’m not quite sure what happened these two days, because I didn’t write a word. Not one single word on either of those two days. Matter of fact, I’m not sure my laptop even left the backpack that I call my ‘office-in-a-bag’ from the trip...

Hi! For the thirtieth day of the Q4 Challenge, I’d love to tell you that I outright crushed the word count. I could totally tell you that, too. Even mock up a screenshot to “show” it. But it would be a lie, and that’s not me. I had a car...

Greetings and salutations! It seems like it’s been forever since I posted an update here (tongue very firmly in cheek). I just finished up writing for the day, and I have to say I’m pleased with my production. And before I get to the section where I upload...

At some point–either during Friday afternoon or the dead-tired drive back–I realized my mistake in trying to put words down on The Shepherd after Skullkeep lit a fire in me. So, when I woke up Saturday morning (November 12th), I started (and almost...

November 11th is Veterans’ Day in the United States. My dad was an armorer (US Army) in Vietnam. I shared an office for two-and-a-half years with someone who was former 82nd Airborne during the Gulf War. A professor at the college where I used to work IT is a...

In the previous post, I discussed how my writing method has evolved since I started publishing my stories. I also disclosed that it was on that day (or maybe the day before) that the second half of The Fall of Skullkeep finally “clicked” in my mind....

Starting on November 9th, I have not missed a day. I also haven’t come close to the my daily target for November, either. I want to say it was on the ninth–or possibly the day before–that the final half of The Fall of Skullkeep clicked into place....
