Drugs, man. I was put on Abilify to try and combat some of my depressive periods. It’s done that, but it’s also given me an overwhelming sense of restlessness and an inability to properly focus on many tasks. I’m seeing my doctor tonight to help and deal with this. I’m hopeful I can still get… Continue reading Capital D

Writer Report: Home Stretch
I’ll keep this short today, but everything is going pretty swimmingly here. I’m down to the last two scenes of Cold Streets now. I should be able to knock one out this coming week, and the last the week after. This is good because next week is Otakon. And then a week and a half… Continue reading Writer Report: Home Stretch
And We're Back!
So apparently GoDaddy had to yank on my site’s chain for some reason. Fun times! I figured I would do another quick Tumblr post this morning and prepare my review of Red 2 for tomorrow which is when I thought the site would be back up. But now it is and I’m uncertain of how… Continue reading And We're Back!
Writer Report: Litany of Excuses
Writers of fiction tend to be pretty good at lying. We even lie to ourselves from time to time. “I’ll make time to write after I get off of work.” “I just need another drink to feel up to writing.” “One more turn, then into the word mines I go!” So on and so forth.… Continue reading Writer Report: Litany of Excuses
"Life Will Welcome You Back"
I’m postponing my review until tomorrow. This is too important not to share. Please watch the following, whether you’re a gamer yourself or you have one in your family. [tube]FA2rQqCdSjI[/tube]
Writer Report: Too Darn Hot
Oof. It’s been difficult at times to go out my door this week. Heat just hits me like a hammer in the chest. Add to that the injury I did to myself last weekend, and I haven’t exactly been operating at my best. Still, I’ve tried to make the most of it. Cold Streets is… Continue reading Writer Report: Too Darn Hot
A Personal Day
I exhausted a good portion of my morning energy laying out some personal thoughts over on Tumblr. I don’t like putting deeply personal stuff here if I can help it, but if you’re curious as to what my actual internal headspace looks like, give the above a click. It’s a bit long and I’m completely… Continue reading A Personal Day
Writer Report: Home Stretch
Here we are, within striking distance of the end of Cold Streets. I have three more scenes to do, and all of them are well laid out in my head. I think a week, two at the most, will be all I need to wrap this puppy up. Then I start editing and getting feedback.… Continue reading Writer Report: Home Stretch
Even Gamers Need Sleep
Very short one today, I’ve been a bit behind in things all morning long. I didn’t get enough sleep last night. I stayed up later than I should have playing the closed beta of [GAME TITLE REDACTED]. I need to find others to discuss it with, as I like it but I have issues with… Continue reading Even Gamers Need Sleep
Writer Report: Supernatural Inspiration
Cold Streets is closer than ever to the end of the first draft. I have a few changes I think I’ll be making before test readers are contacted, so I guess they’ll be seeing a second draft, or perhaps draft 1.5 – either way, I’m on the cusp of switching gears between writing and editing,… Continue reading Writer Report: Supernatural Inspiration
