Yesterday, as I was writing a small paper (~500 words) for PLSC 201, I realized that I would be FINISHED with classes this week today at three o’clock and I wouldn’t really have to worry about homework. What a delicious breath of freedom! So today, after I slept through the four hour-and-a-half classes that I… Continue reading Making it up on the weekend

Progress comes slowly
I feel like today was fairly productive. I finished all the homework that’s due tomorrow, put in three hours at the writing lab, went to all my classes, got up early, and now I’m going to bed relatively late, after writing for about two hours. However, I still wasn’t able to get all the writing… Continue reading Progress comes slowly
Maybe I spoke too soon…
Yeah, I thought that six pages a day wouldn’t be that hard for the rewrite of The Phoenix of Nova Terra. Well, I might be wrong. After a really awesome and refreshing Sunday, I sat down around 10:00 pm to work on Phoenix. I thought that I’d spend maybe half an hour or an hour… Continue reading Maybe I spoke too soon…
Goals update…and it’s freaking late…
Man, I’ve been really bad about my writing goals this month. I set a whole bunch of goals right as school started, and I don’t think a single day has gone by where I’ve kept all of them. Blegh, that’s disgusting. So today I took some time to rethink things and reevaluate. I figured that… Continue reading Goals update…and it’s freaking late…
I love revising
Today, after I got through with my homework for tomorrow, I figured it was time to do my writing for the day, so I opened up the rough draft of Phoenix and picked up where I left off. I didn’t really feel much in the mood for writing, but forty five minutes later the library… Continue reading I love revising
Awesome weekend!
This was a really good weekend for writing. We had a REALLY fun writing meeting with Quark and I got some very helpful feedback for the first chapter of The Phoenix of Nova Terra (aka The Lost Colony), and now after another rewrite I feel really happy with it. On Friday, as I was walking… Continue reading Awesome weekend!
Cool New Title!
Hey guess what! I finally figured out a new title for the story previously known as The Lost Colony! From here on out, that story will be known as The Phoenix of Nova Terra. That title fits in so many different ways. Humanity is crawling out of the ashes of a near xenocidal war and… Continue reading Cool New Title!
Ggggggggroggy
Yes I am. No routine and lots of destractions equals late, late nights. I don’t think I’ve gone to bed before 2 am at any time this week, and now I’m suffering for it. Fortunately, though, this is the weekend, so I can recuperate a little. The only writing goal I’ve marginally been keeping up… Continue reading Ggggggggroggy
New writing goals
Alright, the first week of school is behind me, I’m probably as settled in as I’m ever going to be, so it’s time I set some personal writing goals for myself this semester. So here goes. My major goal, at this point, is to have three polished novel drafts in time for World Fantasy 2009… Continue reading New writing goals
Some things to work on
I just recently moved in to a homestay, where I’ll be living with an Arab family until the end of the summer. You can read about it on my other blog. It’s nice to have a routine now, because I have time in the evenings to go on my computer and write. The Wormhole Paradigm… Continue reading Some things to work on
