For those of you following the Nanocast, the Blogging Antithesis Series, and who have been suffering long for the want of the Free Will podcast, a quick update: I had an opportunity to do a YA adventure novel for a big event coming up, but I had a very thin …
Oh, man, what a difference a few days can make! Shortly after my most recent post, I went into a bit of a tail spin over one of the issues that has tripped me up time and again with this book, and this series. By way of background: I initially …
June is here! Summer has brought wonderfulness! An end to writer’s block! An end to the endless irritation that seems to saturate May every year! First item of news, which I’ll have a proper announcement about tomorrow, is that I’m in a new book bundle. The theme of the bundle …
Oi. Well, May is shaping up to be kind of a shit show. Personal crap is keeping me away from the keyboard most of the time, which is making me go stir crazy. Add to that a lot of client work (which does pay the rent, so I can’t complain …

Which meant I actually got out for my walks today–both of them–which left me wobbly after being off the beam …
Gorgeous day today. I mean, just look at that sunset! Still fighting the fatigue today. Woke up with inflamed eyes, so something is definitely up that goes beyond poor sunlight regulation (on the upside, the dark room last night meant I slept a lot better–go me!). On the upside, I …
The fatigue persists. I am now convinced that the good weather is screwing with my sleep cycle. I’m going to sleep in another room tonight, one that doesn’t get direct sunlight in the morning, to confirm my theory. Had an excellent day regardless. Spent one shift working on network infrastructure–we …
