When it gets to be Day 5 of NaNo, and you’ve written barely 300 words, and each of those words was pulling teeth, and there is just no enthusiasm for writing the story you’ve chosen for NaNo or anything of the sort, it’s time to re-evaluate what is going on. I did my thinking, and [...]

1. Quick polish SPN & send to Betas – due date 4/5/10 Done! Though the “quick polish” was exceptionally quick. Embarrassingly quick, even. 2. Send T to 5 sub ops – due date 4/30/10 Not done yet. Show has opened, but SPN still has priority. After that, it will probably be May before I touch [...]

…so I’ll share an xkcd with you instead. Sometimes this is where I feel like my writing is going. All these pieces with straight edges trying to line up on a curved surface. Or sometimes, the other way ’round — but it doesn’t make the pieces fit any easier. Now, mind you, I’m not giving [...]

. . . I mean goal posts. Ah, punctuation! (Though, that was intentional. I’m planning to start separating my goals out from other, more “fun” content. They’ll be just the goals, and will go up either Sun or Mon.) Last month’s goals: Finish writing SPN – due date 3/15/10 new date: 3/31/10 Done! Send T [...]

It’s April! Wow! That’s just amazing. I’m curious, how many of you were fooled by any of Google’s antics this past April 1st? I’m not sure what my favorite prank of theirs was this year. Was it the vowel outage? The Translate for Animals app on an Android phone? Or perhaps the new functionality on [...]

I never really manage to understand how a month can go by so quickly. This one has been no exception. And the end of March means the end of the first quarter to 2010. Wasn’t it just New Year’s? Of 2008? My goodness. Time does fly. But, what that means is that this is the [...]

This has been a long week. Long, long, long. I think that I will be giving you a mash-up of things that I missed out on earlier this week due to it being such a long and difficult week. There will be a steampunk novella snippet at the end — a short one, but I [...]

Monday! Like it or not… I didn’t get a whole lot done this weekend, or at least I didn’t feel like I did. So I’m not too thrilled about it being Monday. Finish writing SPN – due date 3/15/10 Not done yet. AKA overdue. But… getting there. Send T to 5 sub ops – due [...]

Happy Friday! Here are a few stats about SPN, the steampunk novella: As of last count (Wednesday night as I was closing up my working file) there were 15,000 words in the novella. This is halfway to the MAXIMUM word count for the submission, and according to my outline, I’m not going to reach that [...]
