  • Stalling out

    Well, the 25k month in February isn’t going quite as well as I’d hoped. My wheels are doing a lot of spinning, but my fingers aren’t managing to type the words. Bother. I did get a good bit of writing done for Edge last week, but that doesn’t get me much closer to my goal…

  • Wow..this is kinda my bad here people.

    Alright. I haven't posted on this thing since … uhm the end of October. That's pretty bad, granted, but honestly, I don't feel as bad as I should. Near as I can tell I'm the only human being who pays any attention to this so the only one I've been letting down is myself. Ok…now…

  • If you don’t succeed…

    You know the rest. I didn't make last month's goal of 25,000 words. If you want excuses I have plenty; my computer dying, my own distractibility, and others. Honestly, the self destruction of my computer probably did more than anything else to stop me from reaching goal. My computer is one of the things that…

  • 25k month update

    Wish I had better news for you guys this time around, but we're at July 24th now, with seven days left and I'm only at 12k words. I officially have 1 week left to get 13k words done….which means writing 2,000 words a day, consistently for the next seven days. The odds aren't exactly in…

  • Catching up and latest reads

    So, now that I'm all married, honeymooned, and settled back in, its time to actually get back to the business of being a writer. I'll admit, I probably could have kept up better with writing, blogging and twittering the last couple of months, but most nights I just didn't feel up to it. Work and…

  • Not a 25k month

    Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve updated the ol’ blog.  Truth be told, I haven’t been very good about writing in general for the past month and a half or so.  I don’t have a good reason for you other than life has been freakin’ busy and the games have been a major distraction.…

  • Making the move

    Not much writing news for this week. The fiancé and I have spent the last week moving. I feel bad, but its really hard to want to do anything besides collapse after you’ve gone up and down three flights of stairs a dozen times carrying heavy boxes. I’ve had a short story for Edge of…

  • Moving pains

    Just a quick status update so you don’t think that I’m neglecting my blog again.  I’m alive and well…ok, mostly well.  We’re currently in the process of moving between apartments, and the one we’re moving to is on the third floor.  My legs are protesting this move and threatening rebellion, and the rest of my…

  • Crunch time!

    As of this time I’m sitting at around 16k-17k words done on this months goal.  I don’t have too many days left before deadline, but I think I’m going to be able to make it.  Yes, you other authors are probably snickering at me with my piddly goals.  You NaNoWriMo winners can poo poo 25k…

  • The Big Question: What are my goals for 2012?

    Alright, so granted, its not a question that’s strictly about writing, but it’s the subject of this week’s entry.  I actually started writing this last week, but life kind of went and kicked me in the face.  Turns out there are some things that will just kill the impulse that I have to write.  One…
