I should really be writing, I suppose. I wrote a measly 400 words Monday, and by Tuesday I was well over 3,000 words behind where I should have been. So in a flurry of writing, I got through another 1,200 words yesterday, so that I was within arm’s reach of the day six goal of […]
If wishes were horses, I’d pick up an ATV
So, I’ve been gradually removing the games from my wish list lately as review scores come out and my anticipation for certain titles wane as real gameplay stories begin trickling in. After checking out the tracklist for Guitar Hero 3, I no longer have an interest in that game. Battalion Wars 2 is getting a […]
Words and leaves – Whitman would be proud
I was able to bust through into Chapter 3 on Sunday, ripping through 1,800+ words in a single day. This was despite the fact that I had to take a lengthy break in the middle of the day to get all of our leaves cleaned up. My father helped me out, so a shout out […]
I can haz upgradez now?
Thanks to the Google Operating System blog, I now understand why my Gmail Notifier Firefox plugin stopped working suddenly this past week. Evidently, my Gmail account received an update recently. I wasn’t aware of this, but the update includes IMAP support, which is slick. I wouldn’t mind using Thunderbird for email, but I really prefer […]
Now the wife is cracking the whip!
She’s keeping me on task, that’s for sure. I was going to deal with only having about 700 words written for the day. And she talked me into continuing on, trudging mercilessly through another 600 words for a total today of 1,365. Man, this is tough going. And it’s only day two! I can’t imagine […]
Just under 2,000 for day one
Wow. I started off with about 742 words half-heartedly punched out over my lunch break today. I guess my brain just wasn’t in it at the time. But just now, in about a half hour, I threw out another 1,200 words. The second section of chapter one just came running out of nowhere. It was […]
And, we’re off!
I got my first batch of writing in today. I managed to hack together 742 words over my lunch break. It’s pretty awful, but then, it’s not necessarily supposed to be good. It’s just supposed to be. It’s amazing how difficult it is to write when you’re staring at a blank page. Even when you […]
Halfpixel doubles
Wow. I never saw this coming. It was one thing when Scott Kurtz announced that he and Kris Straub’s business-oriented “How to Make Webcomics” book was going to be written by all four of the webcomics horsemen, but now Brad Guigar and Dave Kellet have left Blank Label and joined Kris and Scott at Halfpixel […]
