Went to Costco yesterday & now I’m living in a world of snacks.

Rediscovered this Richard Dawson album & have been listening to it this week. It’s a bit intense but it’s so good!

Today’s snippet is another scene in a recording studio (which is where a lot of this story takes place).

People who like experimental, ambient, and/or noise music, what’s the funniest thing you’ve ever mistaken for part of the music you were listening to?

For me, I think it was the time my phone got disconnected in the car without me realizing it & I listened to five solid minutes of radio static.

There’s a magical land that my characters travel to in my novel & I’m still figuring out exactly how that all works, but here’s a snippet from Russell’s first trip there.

I think we all need to come up with something new to say to each other that isn’t “How are you?” or “How have you been?”

Today’s snippet takes place in a recording studio. The guitarist, Charles, wants everyone to do another take of a song before moving on. The rest of the band is getting irritated.

I got the gross cold that’s been going around just in time for my weekend, so yesterday I did nothing but watch “Death by Lightning.” It was great, I recommend it.

Another snippet from “Obsidian Streets,” the silly novel about a 1970s prog rock band that I’ve been working on for awhile. In this section, the record producer is having some regrets.

Letting this blueberry lemon cake bread thing cool before I glaze it. First time making this recipe & it looks a little sloppy but hopefully it’s tasty.

(This is what happens when I binge watch The Great British Baking Show.)

I’m gonna bake some blueberry lemon bread, what album should I listen to?

Was looking at the musician ads on Craigslist (just out of habit/for fun) & I can’t tell who’s joking & who isn’t anymore. 😂

Somehow, I don’t have the word “activity” anywhere in my draft. So here’s the introduction to one of my favorite characters, who is doing his favorite ACTIVITY (reading in the corner while eating snacks & daydreaming about being a Hobbit).

Riven update: I made it to the fire marble puzzle & have been stuck there for awhile. 😂
Playing the original Riven & getting much farther than I ever did as a kid playing it at a friend’s house (I feel like all we did back then was ride the tram). But man, people aren’t kidding when they say this game is hard. 😂

Here’s a fun one. 😂
In this scene, a character simply known as “Frog Man” goes to an open mic night at a dive bar.

Here’s Prince being a sassy little snuggly guy.

I finished rereading the first draft of my novel & today I’m going to start the editing process. I’m a bit new to all of this, I think I’m going to make a list of all the plot/character problems to fix & then I’ll go from there. 😬

Sharing another snippet from “Obsidian Streets,” the novel I’ve been working on. It’s 1973 & two characters are backstage before a concert.

Here’s a silly conversation between two record store employees from the novel I’ve been writing.

Today one of my coworkers told me that the big gossip going around about me this week is that I’ve started eating bagels on my break. I’ve done it! I’ve officially become the most boring person at work! 🎉

I’ve been saying this for a long time, but I am so embarrassed & ashamed to be an American.

I went to see “Song Sung Blue” with my parents today & it was honestly a really great movie.

I’m sad enough that I’m going to try exercising, oh no.
