Good grief. One website says I should take zinc supplements with fatty foods (eggs, bacon, etc), another says on an empty stomach for better absorption. BLOODY HELL WHICH IS IT???

Good morning! Needed to do some housework on my website. Since Smashwords was absorbed by Draft2Digital, I needed to fix a few links.

Okay, time to get the day started. Peace out! ✌️

Or maybe I'll let them all survive and torture them in other ways? Humans have become creatures of comfort, so when they lose that familiarity, some will do anything to get that back. Even if it means turning their backs on family or those they considered family.

Do my survivors fall into that category? Well it all depends. Do I want to keep them all together, or have one or two die off? Not everyone is going to survive through this story, and if you've followed me for a while, you know how much I love to kill off my characters. 🫣

As we head into the dark nights of Autumn, it seems fitting that for the last week I've been working on my zombie sequel. The world has fallen into chaos and my small band of survivors are about to learn the hard way that some people are really expendable.

Good morning! I see we all survived spooky weekend.

I forgot Friday is Hallowe'en, or Sowe'en for the rest of us.

Good morning! We're expecting a deluge of rain over the next couple of days. Oddly enough, it's not from Melissa.

I was thinking of doing a video of my poem Upon This Pumpkin Night, but I forgot about the idea and now Hallowe'en is right around the corner and I have nothing. 😒

I can't sell books if people don't know I have books for sale.

I have books for sale: books2read.com/ap/6n661n/Gr...

Good morning! A bright, sunny day here today. Ugh, hurts my eyes. I have a lot on my plate today, including making a couple loafs of bread and meatloaf for my lunch for the week. Yeah, might get some writing in too, but at least I don't have to do laundry. 😁

Okay, that's it for me. Peace out!✌️

I may have to spend the first week reading over what I already have, since it's been so long. Especially as there are new plot points I want to include. I don't think I'll get the same new word total as I did with Cashe, but I'm still moving forward with this WIP.

I've had about a dozen scene ideas come to me over the last couple months, and I've recorded them on my phone. I think the first thing I need to do is write them down, and then figure out if I can use them. I don't think I'll be able to use all of them, but we'll see.

Today is the start of a new week, and my writing schedule says that I will be working on my zombie sequel for the next couple of weeks! The first draft of this novel is done, so now I'm in the revising and editing stage. #WritingCommunity #writinglife

Good morning! It's a chilly 1c here in my neck of the Great White North. Good day to cuddle up and write, unfortunately, I have to work. Bleh...

Darke Conteur is writing. @darkeconteur.bsky.social · 16d

That's it for me for today. Gotta do some writing. Peace out! ✌️

Speaking of TikTok, here's a dinner recipe that I got from there and made this week.

Ugh, now with the cooler weather, I forgot that I don't like my feet to get cold. BRB, need socks.....

Working on it again after so many months, has let me read it with fresh eyes, and while I'm not trying to edit things, I have found a word here and there that needed to be changed.

On the writing front, I'm finishing up a two-week stint working on my Sci-Fi story Cashe. I haven't touched this in quite a while and was worried I wouldn't be able to get back into it after such a long break. I was so wrong.

I'm slowly getting back into blogging again as well. I've got a few new ones up, and I'm trying to keep the content there different from the content I post on TikTok. It's more work, but I like posting videos.

Darke Conteur is writing. @darkeconteur.bsky.social · 16d

People posting a video of them not saying anything or doing anything, but with 'trending' music overlay. I'm sorry, those videos are boring, and I scroll right on past.
