I thought picking up again after the holidays would be really straight forward. I had the next scene totally laid out for me. Half of it’s already written, I just need to string it together. But. I kind of stopped for the holidays in the middle of a fight. And I’m coming back to it […]

Tuesday is the perfect, most excellent day of the week. Mostly because it’s the first time I get to write since before Christmas.

If I maintain this not-working streak I’ll be posting holiday […]

Yesterday, I read a book. Okay, that could have been more dramatic. Most days I read books. Usually more than one. Especially if they’re short. This one is short. Technically it’s a children’s book. It’s also a textual mashup, although I don’t think you’d have to understand the references and so on to enjoy the […]
