Okay. Let’s be honest here for a second. If I don’t finish this thing before Kingdom Hearts 3 comes out I’m pretty much doomed. I think I only lack three chapters from having the bare plot bones on the page so I think it’s doable. I’m just getting sorta anxious that it’s almost over if […]

The End in Sight
So far so good. I’m on track to finish this chapter either tonight or tomorrow. Then I’ll be ready to jump right into the next one. That being said, the chapter I’m working on was already halfway done before I started writing again, so I guess we’ll see how well I fare next week. Earlier […]
We Back
It’s been a busy week of trying to focus on editing but I’m finally done. And now I can get back to cranking out the rest of the novel. Most likely 5-6 more chapters. Yay! The editing process was actually kinda rough. Almost every time I found something that didn’t agree with my current stylistic […]
Bouncing Back
I’m back in my writing groove! We did it! Yeah! Honestly, the whole experience feels much better. I’ve started off rereading from chapter one. Unsurprisingly, I found a lot of things that could’ve been written a little better, so I wrote them a little better. This is something that happens virtually every single time I […]
I have tamed the Dragon
To my surprise, Dragon Con had a lot of accomplished authors. And they had some pretty great panels. I will admit, the first panel I attended wasn’t at all what I was expecting. Who would’ve thought a panel titled “The Pen & The Sword: Arming the Written Word” would turn out to be four military […]
A Game of Choices
At first, I was going to make this into a dream poem but I wanted to be more explicit in the description of this particular dream. What’s a Choice? I dreamt a dream I shouldn’t remember. A clever dream, really. A dream more easily forgotten than the next, yet remembered. If only slightly. In another […]
Learning and Stuff
Just wanted to say today that I think I’m finally out of my rut. I think I can finally get back to work for real this time, especially since the the kiddos are all back in school and now the library won’t be an ironically loud mess. That was part of the problem, but certainly […]
Destiny Islands
It’s been probably about a year since I posted this the first time. I’ve made a lot of changes since then and I guess I’m just trying to find out if there are still more changes that need to be made. I’ve said before that I think the first chapter is the most important for […]
Throw it in Reverse
I’m sure I’ve talked about how important I think feedback is before, but here I go again, bear with me. I’ve had a pretty difficult time finding people I trust to read everything I’ve written and offer me some constructive criticism. On one hand, I totally understand that people have lives of their own that […]
Lightbulb
I think I’m going to refrain from progress updates until I get closer to the end. There’s just something about setting unrealistic goals publicly on a frequent basis that just bums me out. It bums me out when I don’t meet them. It gives me this intense feeling of apprehension. On one hand, I think […]
