First, I’ve been writing.
I feel like that’s the best excuse for falling behind on the podcast and the blog. I’ve written close to 10K words this week on both War and the edits on Heaven. I’m seven chapters done on Heaven, through page 72.

Last week on Monday and Tuesday I felt great. Energetic, productive, creative. I was able to do contract work and my own work and ISBW content and all sorts of things. I wrote thousands of words, I did housework and errands, I thought I was on a roll. But then I crashed on Wednesday and [...]
Pants report- not much pants on the weekend, spent time in sweatpants doing yardwork or being lazy with the family. It’s a weekend. I did pants up to go to a party, though. But today, I got up early to finish a freelance project, then worked out, then PANTS before noon.

Apparently they’re not closing to children’s or educational book submissions, though. So that’s good (for those writers, anyway). If [...]
I have an ISBW recorded for you. It just needs editing. Why am I slack on this?
I’ve been writing.
Yeah yeah, the damn podcast implies that I should be doing that thing. If you listen, you know that discipline is a hard thing for me. But this week, starting last Sunday, I’ve been regular [...]
I always think I want to blog more, and then I never do. I don’t know what my blogging block is; maybe I think if I’m writing many words a day it should be on fiction? Maybe I feel that going on in a nonfic/news format isn’t really my style; maybe I just feel that [...]
