Hello, Internet! I feel this week's gone fairly well. Actually met my writing goal! (First time in a while...) This upcoming week's going to be an exciting one for me. The next course of my MFA starts Monday - and we're finally doing fiction! While I actually have found a fair amount of thinking space … Continue reading Weekly Update – 1/31/18
Hello, Internet! This week's gone well, I feel. I'm almost done with my current course towards my MFA (a class on reading and writing poetry), and looking forward to my next class: fiction! About time. Just two more weeks left, and one of those set aside for revising a poem for our final. Reading This … Continue reading Weekly Update – 1/25/18
Hello, Internet! How was your week? It was good? Good! (I'm going to assume it was good, because I can't hear you. Speak up.) Mine was okay. The bad news is that I didn't hit my writing goal - but the good news is that I do still feel that this week has been productive! … Continue reading Weekly Update – 1/17/18
Hello Internet! New year, same me. I've given it a whole 30 seconds of thought (lavish, eh?) and decided that YES I do still enjoy doing these posts this way, so welcome to another year of me blathering words onto a screen and then screaming them out into the Void. As usual, I'll be blabbering … Continue reading Weekly Update – 1/10/18
Hello, Internet! We've collectively completed yet another trip 'round the big glowy blob, which means that once again I have acquired the obligation to babble about the voyage. The last few weeks have been a little bit of a journey in their own right - driving 350 miles south, then flying about a thousand out … Continue reading The End of the Year Post
Hello, Internet! A new week, a new post. Life moves on, and on, and on. Next week I'll be on vacation for the holiday season, so I may or may not post. I'll decide sometime next week. In either case, I'm currently planning to do some sort of larger End of 2017/Start of 2018 post … Continue reading Weekly Update – 12/21/17
Hello, Internet! This week's been better. Last week felt sluggish, felt like I wasn't getting things done. There's still improvement to be made on that front - but when isn't there? Still, I'm glad to say that I feel this week has been an improvement. Reading I spent most of this week finishing reading The Dragonbone … Continue reading Weekly Update – 12/14/17
Hello, Internet! This week's been unproductive, though not necessarily difficult. I'm not sure why. Often, when I'm unproductive it means there's something going on, but I've yet to puzzle it out. So, I'll just go ahead with what did/didn't get done, and see if something emerges as I go. Reading I've not gotten to read … Continue reading Weekly Update – 12/6/17
Hello, Internet! Week's been okay. A bit less frenetic than the last, which is always good. Let's get to it, shall we? Reading I've not had an enormous amount of reading time this week - at least, freely-chosen reading time. I spent some time with Plutarch and Thucydides while wrapping up the article for my Master's, … Continue reading Weekly Update – 11/29/17
Hello, Internet! The last few weeks have been good. A bit bumpy, a bit unexpected (and unplanned), but good. I'll be talking a bit about NaNo and a bit about Oathbringer this week. Reading So Oathbringer dropped last week, and as anyone reading me often probably knows, I'm a HUGE Sanderson fanboy. His Mistborn novels are some … Continue reading Weekly Update – 11/22/17
