Writing update.
January was a hell of a month. Work, weather, and a few complications around caring for my mom. Finally had a day totally off all for regrouping.
So...getting back to work. Circles won't write itself, and it is just the first of many stories that I will be exploring.

After a crazy week at work, and then realizing the need to pivot part of the novel...things are all lined back up and should be good to just get the rest written.

So, if you like stories about crop circles, conspiracies, and that guy pictured below, you might want to keep an eye on my profile.

Well, that's enough research-rabbithole for me tonight. Either I have scrambled my brain or this actually makes sense as a fictional symbol of philosophical expression.

This last week has felt like the longest month ever. I even doublechecked myself, because it felt like I forgot to pay a couple of bills. So...small progress is still progress.

Wasn't a great weekend. Needing some time off to recuperate from my time off. But, I am trucking right along with the first draft of the first novel. It is killin' me, not being able to talk about the story, the setting, and the plans for the future. And games! It will be a fantastic #ttrpg setting!

It isn't as speedy as I would like, but it sure is steady progress!
I am lovin' this experience, as well as the story!

Has been a great weekend for writing. A lot of reflection and introspection, too. Things are moving forward.

Thank you, Terry Robinson, for your contributions to the Mage: The Ascension game & fandom. Especially for this very special copy of Book of Secrets you referred to as "bookbinding practice."
You will be missed.

Sometimes things look just fine in the outline...but require a different approach when words need to string together. Add "queen Anne architecture" and "precession" to my search history....

Approaching the halfway point in terms of the outline and planned chapters. Considering a number of factors, including some additional bits I want to add in the beginning of the story....looks like an 85k word novel.

Not a great weekend, but not totally shitty.
Bit by bit, I am more enthused. I see the story taking shape and feel characters fill with substance.

Unplanned break from writing. SSD is failing...so I better go buy a replacement tonight and put it in.
Routine, but annoying.

Will certainly hit 20k by the end of the month. Then, the goals for December & January are 25k each.

Not bad for a day. Ugh, I have always loved talking *about* stories and games, but it is way too early to talk about this one.

I definitely LOVE writing and the whole process of development and creation. I definitely DON'T love the fact that it has to ride backseat to a day-job.
