NaNo History
Someone on the OHHOW Discord was asking for people to share what their past experiences were with NaNo, successes and failures. I had to dig around a little to find the answer, but it was a little amazing (to me) that I’ve been doing this for so long. It was also a little hard looking…

Emerging from the Sand
It has been a long month and a half. Between settling into the new day job, writing in every spare moment, dealing with real life things that get in the way and celebrating my partner’s new day job, time has gotten away from me. Today though, I’m here to talk about “Invasive Species”, a new…

Storm Before the Calm
There was a longer post where I ranted about being unsettled that I have now removed. The typing of it was enough. New things are starting for me next week – which leaves me in an uncertain place with my creative endeavors. Stream schedule in particular is unknown, but also how much time I’ll have…

Welcome to
Here we are at the end of <Day> and I think we’re feeling good about it. It’s been about a week – I’ve made some progress on Unident, played around with some ideas for Warped Lens (coming in September), and a few other tasks that have come up. So what happens on the next <day>?…

Practice Practice Practice
As planned, today was another session of writing and while I did get some words down for a story, I’m not happy with the overall feel for it. So – like usual – I’ll be leaving that one aside and trying something else tomorrow. I’ll keep cycling around this until it gets into a form…

Recovering Hei Hei
I would love to talk about writing today, but the important part of the day actually turned out to be my bonus segment with Gwynanne today, where we played some Minecraft and I recovered Hei Hei from his pen near the tents and brought him back over to me in my main base. Never fear…

Are you ready?
This weekend is the Weekend of Writing Wildly, hosted by the folks from OHHOW. I’ve got the 2pm UTC slot on Saturday. Last time this event happened, in April, the total event broke 300k words and my stream managed to hit 3rd in total word count. I would like to crush 300k. I would like…
