Having one of those mornings where I'm SO close to finding the right words, but they aren't coming.

Going to get more coffee and keep trying. I can feel them getting ready to burst out, just got to find the opening.

Now is an excellent time to tell folks that the next chapter of my serial novel, "Nameless" just went out to my subscribers.

. . . and it's a doozy!

Monday, Spouties!

I need to get back to exercise, so after I get done posting this, I'm heading out for a (shortish) run. Then today is all about the writing and the job hunting. Wish me luck!

COFFEE SHOP DAY!

At my favourite place, They know my order and I can listen to music and get stuff done.

Today: applying for ghostwriting work and planning out the next year's writing & promotions.

And you know, writing stuff, because that's how I roll.

Updated my computer because it wasn't accessing the interwebs. Now it's accessing the interwebs, but not opening half the sites.

Sigh.

Send beer. It's going to be a long damn night.

So, Spouties, Microsoft says that Office2019 is no longer supported, and I should upgrade to an Office365 subscription.

Yeah, right.

Time to start learning Scrivener, because I'll be damned if I'm paying monthly for something I already bought.

Other suggestions welcome.

Later than I expected, but I can't let Tuesday go by without mentioning that my subscribers are reading the next chapter of my serial novel, "Nameless," and the rest of you aren't.

Not to mention all my subscribers get a free copy of "The Trials of Abyowith," so really, what are you waiting for?

I'm not the only one who sees someone acting like a jerk in other people's feeds and pre-emptively blocks them, and I?

Because honestly, I've got enough bullshit in my own life that I can't be arsed to deal with rude people in social media.

A grey, rainy Saturday, Spouties. Much to do, much to think about. So many little cogs and wheels to move together to make life how I want it.

The big picture is overwhelming, so today is about little pictures and doing what I can.

Have a good one folks. I'll check in later.

Last night I wrote and deleted many posts about this, I decided it’s best to just say, donate if you can, share if you can’t, and leave it at that.

Monday, Spouties, and it's starting a bit rough. So I'm going to switch my schedule up, begin with some writing, go for a run, and then dig back into the job hunt.

Who else has plans for the day and wants to share them?

At the coffee shop, and suffering from melancholy. And so, there is only one solution: GIF party!

Ask me anything and I will answer with a GIF. No question too silly, personal, intense, or serious.

So if you're in the mood to play, come on out!

Spending the morning applying for a job, so not able to chat. But I will say that I sent out the latest chapter of "Nameless" to all my subscribers, yesterday.

It's the calm before the storm in the story, and the storm is going to be big.

Might want to subscribe . . .
