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…

Writers Block and the smashing thereof
Bleh. So, here we are ten days into my 25k word writing challenge and I've barely gotten 2k written. The reason? First off, after not writing for so long its incredibly hard to put down the video game controller and actually get back to work. Half of why I was doing so well in previous…

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…

What do you want from me? A post?
Look, I don’t know what to tell you. I’m in the middle of writing the Baron short story for Edge of December yet, having found my inspiration, muse, flow, what have you. Its coming along well and I want to have the first draft done by the end of the week. Right now, I’m writing…

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…

Yeah…so about that…Mass Effect 3
So, it’s been much more than a week since I updated the ol’ blog here, and I apologize for that. All I can say in my defense is that things have been a little busy around here…and yes, I got Mass Effect 3. Look, there’s a galaxy in dire need of saving and I don’t…

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…

I’ve been slacking off…
…but I still want to make this 25k goal. Alright, so I haven’t really been slacking. There’s a lot of stuff that’s happened this month that makes me think, I should have maybe made next month the 25k word challenge. Weddings, family stuff, travel, Valentine’s Day. All of it adds up to “It is Febuary…
