Ok, so it’s been a while blog. My bad. It’s been about that long between writing too. Even worse. I had an experience today that made me think of a few of my own experiences that had happened in the recent past. I have a few posters up at work selling my books. There is […]
It’s been a while between updates, I know. It’s been busy. Now it’s November. I’m not going to pretend I’m participating in NaNoWriMo. It’s impossible for someone as busy as me in my fulltime job to achieve. But I am trying to make a concerted efforted to do more writing. So far, that’s consisted of […]
I hate being as busy as I am. There’s too many things I’m trying to achieve and the one thing I don’t give two shits about, work, is crushing my ability to do any of it. I have not don’t much writing lately as a result. What I have written is shit. Writing is supposed […]
And then her lips leave mine. And that’s when I wake up. The digital display on the bedside clock shows 3:15am. The same time as yesterday. And the night before that. Three years of the same, repeated over and over again, every night. I know the nightmare has to end. It’s only my shame that […]
Thunder cracks again in the distance, closer this time. About five k’s by my count. The wind is picking up too. The afternoon is late, but not so late that the darkness slowly growing across the basin is the sun setting. Not that lucky. This storm is going to be a problem, dammit. I need […]
Without a doubt the hardest 10k. I possibly could have gotten there faster, but I needed to go back and edit the work I’d already done to add some semblance of consistency and order to the story and get my head around things. Viridian is in a much better state, but this story is going […]
I am eating cake for dinner. Birthday cake. My birthday was a week or so ago, but I reluctantly held the celebration last night. It was fun. Cake is delicious. It provided an unusual opportunity to flog off copies of my books. It’s a strange experience to earn at your own birthday party. Possibly socially […]
This was a nightmare that I wrote down and fleshed out: The oppressive heat hits me as I cross the train station. Like me, I assume, it sweeps over the platform hoping to catch the next train and escape the dead town that beyond the tracks in front of me. Even it has given up […]
Four floors burn down Three seconds burn a friendship A kiss burns two But only one burns to confess
Did I mention work was tough lately. It’s taken all the energy out of me, which means less writing and less updates. Mentally exhausting. Certainly no fun. I wrote a nice little passage for Viridian just then, but I’m still along way behind where I’d like to be. I was talking about writer’s block and […]
