Tears & Thorns

I had a frustrating and horrific nightmarish time in the bathroom. Nothing more on that later. I’m once again a little behind… but that’s moreso due to the size of my lesson. As for my editing… I was hoping to have all five new chapters for NtC up, and I wanted to have all 7… Continue reading

What Sticks Out The Most

Fantastic news! I completed NanoWrimo today with those additions to NtC totaling just a smidgeon over 50,000. I get asked what was won. Here’s what Nano gives you: A chance to buy a t-shirt with the year on it and a chance to buy a placard celebrating your success. You pay for those items… shipping… Continue reading

Need To Know

Unfortunately, just finishing up another bit of medical research. I like to aim for as realistic as I can in my writing, so now I think I have more of a solid idea as to where I am in NtC. But… I’m tired. I’m almost at the word count I was supposed to hit for… Continue reading

Mad World

5156. That is my current world count for today. I plan on attempting to squeeze out at least another 1K before bed. Or maybe I’ll be up late writing… I have no clue. This contest has taken a lot more out of me than I ever expected. I’m extremely sleep deprived… and confused about whether… Continue reading

Two Of A Kind

I’m tired. It’s been a long day… and sometimes I get frustrated at how I’m worn out with very short drives now. Used to zip all over the place with little problem. But now… so much energy is needed for concentration that if I do have to drive longer than 30 minutes, I feel like… Continue reading

Water From The Moon

@1:01AM, November 20, 2023 Once again, we’re pulling a near all-nighter. I also just realize that I forgot to take my nerve medication. Doggone it! After this brief snippet, I’ll go do that. I went ahead and plowed through the first chapter of C&R III. I’m uncertain if I’ll keep it as a short or… Continue reading

Secondhand Emotions

I remember I said before that I was feeling the strain? I’m really feeling it now. A hunk of my personal life has taken a backseat to NanoWrimo… and that makes me very sad to admit. I’ve decided that this will likely be my last Nano… it’s just too much pressure on my joints. I… Continue reading

Missing You

I personally think that a collaboration between Kenny G and Michel Bolton is a wonderful thing. Really… a collab between Kenny G and anyone else is gonna be good. Now then… on NTC, I’m on page 19 of Chapter 19. Ha! Just two more new chapters after this one. I was worried at first that… Continue reading

Where We Used To Be

Time… for some terrible reason always seems to escape me! I know that’s probably due to my attempt to do things in here. Like cooking dinner and some fresh potato chip! I guess I didn’t cook the chips long enough. They were more like flat baked potatoes. Still tasted good though. Having the same problem… Continue reading

This Is A Sprint, Not A Marathon

When I look back… in a few weeks, I won’t remember the frustration and the pain and the frustration and the pain I’m experiencing by even sitting upright. The situation with my back is getting pretty bad. Or maybe that’s my perception because I was working around the house, attempting to do some chores today.… Continue reading
