In which Fucking February is no more. #ROW80 #IWSG #NaNoPrep Whut. Does the term “Fucking February” offend your delicate person? HAVE YOU EVEN MET ME. Moving on… January was pretty terrific in terms of how well I lived up to my 2016 One Word Theme {FOCUS} but the following month — what I refer to as […]
The Story Bible 2: Briefs & Summaries – #NaNoPrep #NaNoWriMo
The Story Bible 2: Briefs & Summaries In a previous post I introduced the idea of The Story Bible, and explained that I have broken mine down into five various sections. The Story Bible Part 1: Vows & Goals The Story Bible Part2: Briefs & Summaries The Story Bible Part 3: Plots & Outlines The […]
The Story Bible 1: Vows & Goals – #NaNoPrep #NaNoWriMo
The Story Bible 1: Vows & Goals We are in the midst of NaNo Prep and the insanity is almost tangible. I have been cruising around the NaNoWriMo forums, making a nuisance of myself, adding thoughts and opinions like the Easter Bunny drops jelly beans. More than yapping, however, I have been picking up lots […]
Magic Eight Ball – #ROW80 #NaNoPrep
I have a Magic Eight Ball The Magic Eight Ball sits upon my desk. It used to belong to my son, but almost-22-year-olds know everything and no longer need magic in their lives. That’s fine, dude. Whatever. You loved that thing back when you were ten, but I don’t mind storing it, along with all the other non-magical items you […]
Autumnal New Beginnings
I have been thinking a lot about New Beginnings. I am a big fan of Clean Slates, Fresh Starts, and New Beginnings. Mondays provide this feeling on a weekly basis, and I awaken every week with a sense of renewed vigor to pay special attention to my schedule. The first day of any month offers […]
Monday, #ROW80, + #NaNoCamp
Hooray for Monday! And hooray for the first Monday of the month! I guess hooray, too, for the first Monday of NaNo Camp, although that’s neither here nor there. NaNo is based more on the numerical date than on what day of the week it is. The fact that it’s Monday means way less than the fact that […]
NaNo Camp July 2015
NaNo Camp, Oh NaNo Camp. How do I love thee? About as much as I likewise hate thee. Yep, that’s right. I have a Love/Hate relationship with NaNo Camp. That’s because it’s a self-induced period of manic bossy-hood. And we all know how I feel about bossy-hood, particularly when it’s directed AT me and FROM me. Nobody puts […]

I failed again but I ain’t even mad bruh
I failed again. If that’s how you want to look at it. I mean, I added over 10,000 words to my novel, which is not small. And they are pretty good, so there’s that. And I discovered some character connections I hadn’t realized existed, so now we have more background stuff. And I regained enthusiasm […]
NaNoWriMo 2014 update – #NaNoWriMo
NaNoWriMo 2014 Week 1 update: I am behind. That’s no surprise. The surprise is that I am not WOEFULLY behind. I am still tooling along. I have not thrown in the towel. And I have maintained enthusiasm for my NaNoWriMo project. Day 10 word count goal: 16,670 words Current word count: 9,180 words Maths: 7,490 words […]
