  • RoW80 Update: A Wild Goal Appears!

    It’s Sunday, which means it’s time for another RoW80 update! Today’s update is the good kind of update, too, where I don’t have much to report on because things have been going nice and smooth. With nothing big really happening except for the steady progression of my goals, one might even go as far as…

  • RoW80 Update: Almost Settled.

    It’s been almost a month now since I quit working full-time to focus on my writing, and I have to say, I think I’m almost settled into my new work routine. It’s still totally surreal, and I usually feel guilty during the evening because, though I have gotten a lot of work done, it doesn’t…

  • RoW80 Update: A Day Late…

    …and (several) dollars…well, you know how the rest of it goes. I started typing a post for yesterday’s A Round of Words in 80 Days check-in, got about half-way through, and decided to just take the day off. It was a late start, not because of Easter, as I don’t celebrate Easter unless I’m home…

  • RoW80 Update: Whoopsies!

    Isn’t it interesting how, sometimes, we can be incredibly successful in so many things throughout the day, but then we manage to fail at one minute detail, and all those successes seem to fade into the background to make way for the pressing mar on our otherwise perfect day? That’s how I’m feeling right now,…

  • RoW80 Update: Where did the time go?

    It felt like just yesterday I was sitting here, thinking about my RoW80 goals, musing about how Sunday felt so far away and I had plenty of time to get things done. Then I realized it was Saturday, meaning tomorrow was Sunday, and I had to make sure I had some art to post and…

  • Wow, I Wrote That?

    There’s an interesting thing that happens when you transcribe a (very) rough draft onto your computer: two different sides of your writerly self seem to develop, the good and the bad. There are moments when your fingers fly over the key, bringing up lines that blow you away. Then, there are moments where you have…

  • RoW80 Update: The End is only the Beginning.

    Yesterday, I officially finished the rough draft of Soulless (unless you count a potential epilogue that I’m still on the fence about). It’s been several years since I completely finished a rough draft of something, and the feeling is incredibly accomplished. The timing couldn’t be better, either, since Monday I was really feeling like I…

  • So…Soulless?

    I’ve been talking an awful lot about Soulless lately without…really talking about it. Today, that changes, as I’d like to introduce everyone to the project that is rightfully taking over my life right now, considering it will likely be the next book I publish and I hope to have it published around September (knock on…

  • My Creative Cup Overflowth.

    A funny thing happens when you quit your day job and take an impromptu trip to Michigan to crash at your parents’ place for a week. Inspiration, which you’ve been mostly too tired or braindead to truly appreciate, comes rushing back to you like a tidal wave and you want to write all the things.…

  • Ketchup Post.

    Sometimes, you just need to take a moment to catch up. You see, I’ve had a lot going on, which is why post have been infrequent at best. Work has just exploded to the point where I’ve been charged with taking care of the two top management positions of a struggling store, I’ve got to…
