[Writing Post] Life, Swag, and Other Things
Today is supposed to be a writing post, but honestly – that’s not really going to happen. It’s been an… eventful…week, and it’s actually ramping up. I continued my word count progress – it may be small but it’s growing – around the North Texas Comic Book Show (managed to do a bit of editing […]
[Writing Post] Technology Update
For those not on Facebook… there’s an update to the last post already. Office Depot saw my posts on Twitter and sent me their social media/customer service email. So I shot them the link to the blog post this morning with some added context. Within the hour, an “Executive Customer Service” rep sent me an […]
[Spotlight Post] Friday the 13th Edition
Today’s supposed to be some uplifting Spotlight post. I’m going to try to get some of that in. But a blow has been dealt today, and I’m still processing that. It’s turned into a Friday, The 13th at the Day Job. Let me start with, if you’re looking for a couple of good reads, I […]
[Writer Post] Dallas Comic Con and Chicken Dancing
Well, hey, Wednesday… I’m told today is http://www.punchbowl.com/holidays/national-chicken-dance-day. I’m currently doing the “Headless” version of that – fortunately the Chicken Dance looks enough like flailing no one’s noticing. There’s Day Job Stuff that “has to be done before Thursday afternoon” that hit my desk this morning – of course, half the information I need is […]
[Writer Post] Welcome to Wednesday
Welcome to Wednesday. I’m going to try to keep this positive, even though I’m having a Crabby Day Job Day. Today is one of those days where I need to thwack myself in the head with my “Not My Circus, Not My Monkeys” challenge coin and enjoy the fact that I’ve started my Redheads story […]
[Spotlight Post] Easter
It’s Friday. Good Friday. And I’m sitting here staring at my screen, trying to come up with a post. Meredith is pitching ideas through instant message, but everything’s hitting kinda flat. I thought about doing something for Easter – because Easter’s important to me. Christ is important to me. Faith is important to me. Faith, […]
[Writer Post] Pulled Focus and Adulthood
It’s another one of those weirdly random weeks (and really, when is it not, right?), but this one has had me going in a lot of different directions. But go check out the current Mind Meld on SF Signal. This was a touch question, but a fun one to answer – once I narrowed down […]
[Writer Post]Spring… Time for Blooming Insecurities
It’s Wednesday blog post day, and I almost forgot. Last week was stunningly productive – but then brain crashed for a couple of days. Now I’m getting it back in gear, and – of course – second-guessing everything I did in the last month. Yes, I’m not talking about “budding” insecurities in this first flush […]
[Writer Post] D is for Deadline
Today’s blog is brought to you by the Letter “D” – “D” as in deadline. I can see the end of the novel that I need to send in by the 23rd – and no, it’s not the light of an oncoming train, it really is the end. And thusly, I’m in “Batten Down the […]
[Spotlight Post] Aaron Allston – Goodbye My Friend
I was struggling with what today’s spotlight post was going to be about, and if maybe it was time to find something new to do with Friday’s. I started scrolling through Facebook and saw random pictures with Aaron Allston in them, but didn’t make the connection until I got an IM from Jimmy: Did you […]
