Words words words... all the words are done for the night, so now it’s video game time

that sinking feeling when you realize exactly how hosed a story is, plot-wise

don't look now, but my inbox is finally sorted, my husband is snoring, and i actually have time to write

Figuring out this writing thing again

omg it is monday and i'm writing -- i might actually get something submitted to Strange Horizons

shhhh don't tell anyone but i'm trying to get some writing done for a change.

oof, i think i literally edited the humanity off this poor story.

Started a new story this morning. So far I have a four-bullet outline, two sentences, and a fully reoptimized web server

hullo shop. i'm tired and worn out.

Thinking a lot about the parallels between patreon’s old/new fees and the differences between mutual funds and stocks.

Also prepping to Christmas shop for 6-8 hours so that’s a thing.

Got a little more book editing done last night. Need to write about that too.

Put the book I'm writing down for almost a whole week now due to Life. Time to pick it back up I guess.

The whole house is exhausted from too much stuff the last 2 weeks. But if the christmas lights don't go up today, they don't go up -- the weather turns to the worse on Tuesday. And we're pretty much the only ones on the block without them.

Can't help that a little piece of me is resenting the lights eat into my writing time

I once saw someone say that pixel art was the first truly masculine art form and to this day I carry my great grandmothers cross stitch sampler around with me so that in case I ever meet that person I can throw it at them

I know I don't have nearly the following here as I do on Twitter but I may as well post anyway. Any artists on my radar open for icon commissions that are willing to draw asura or goblin-things? I need a change and I don't have time to do it myself but have the dosh to throw at someone. Winter/Yule themes a major plus! Or if you know an artist that I may like you can plug them shamelessly.

I am at a pinball tournament thinking about my book. This isn’t exactly helping my concentration, but on the other hand I’ve already climbed from 28th to 15th so I can’t complain either

the sudden realization that my main character has, through the author's sloppiness, attended every school in the nation

Up to 680 files found from this old novel

Oh my.

That book I've been working on since I was 13?

So far I've found 99 files containing at least part of its content.... and six timelines.... haaaaalp

Another header from my old novel files:

NEW SECTION: IN WHICH WE INTRODUCE TOM AS THE PRINCE THUS TOTALLY DESTROYING USING THAT SURPRISE TROPE LATER AND FORCING US TO THROW OUT LIKE HALF OF EVERYTHING WE EVER WROTE.

DUMBASS.

: just found a file whose first line is:

ENDING 1: WHEREIN WE KILL EVERYONE JUST BECAUSE WE CAN

wednesday: got bit by the bug to "fix" a book I've been working on since I was 13. Now going through all the old files and organizing them using a Trello board. I have at least 6 different versions/timelines in here... sigh.
