Relearning an old writing lesson
Jake Lake once said that he liked to write a book over a period of no more than 3 months. For that long, he said, he could hold the whole plot in his head and he didn’t lose things. Longer…
*gnashing teeth*
Today has been a crappy writing day. And by that, I mean I hardly got anywhere. Lots of typing and erasing and doubting and, well, see the title of his post. I did write a little bit I do like,…
Rewind, rip, state of confusion

Third day of the new year
Yep, made it three days in to the new year. Whoohoo! Boy of size has been feeling mostly good, to the point of bounciness. It’s really nice to see him to happy. Course he just got up out of bed…
