Just a quick update, since it’s 3 am and I’m kind of in a daze after playing Halo: Reach on Xbox live with my roommate. Whoa, decompressing… This whole week, I’ve been in a weird funk. It sucks to be unemployed, especially since I can’t commit to anything long term because I’m waiting to hear… Continue reading Slogging through a funk

Change in direction
Just a quick update on things before I go to bed. After giving it some thought, I’ve decided to put Into the Nebulous Deep on hold for the time being. The main reason for this is that it’s a direct sequel to Mercenary Savior, and if the first one doesn’t sell…yeah, not the best business… Continue reading Change in direction
Pulling along
Just a quick post, because it’s 3:30 am and I’ve got a TON of stuff to do tomorrow, such as: 1) cleaning checks 2) replace the air filter in my car 3) go running with my bro in law 4) finish Genesis Earth 5.0 5) band practice 6) watch Inception with a bunch of friends… Continue reading Pulling along
I’m still here!
Man, it’s been forever since I’ve posted something. I’d blog more often, but I think you guys would get bored pretty quick if all I did was tell you how the writing went each day. Don’t be fooled; the writing process isn’t NEARLY as interesting as the stuff we write (unless you’re writing amateur fanfic…just… Continue reading I’m still here!
Crunch time
Sixty six percent! I’ve officially passed the two thirds mark in the fourth revision for Mercenary Savior–and not a moment too soon. With only a week and a half until World Fantasy 2010, it’s crunch time. I’ll probably quit my temp job a week early in order to devote the last few days of the… Continue reading Crunch time
Dog dead workdays and killing your characters
This post is going to be super quick because I’m dead tired. Due to power surges and computer glitches, I had to work overtime today and yesterday at the warehouse, so I really haven’t had time for anything except writing and a little socializing at Leading Edge. However, things are going well. I’ll get the… Continue reading Dog dead workdays and killing your characters
Confessions of a delinquent blogger
Man, so much has been happening, but now that I’m working an eight to five job, I never have the time to blog about it. It’s 2am and I’m running on only four hours of sleep from the previous night. Oh well, it’s a weekend. Here goes. I passed the 50k mark for the rewrite… Continue reading Confessions of a delinquent blogger
Job – reliable internet = spotty posting
Sorry for the general lack of posts these past few days. I haven’t fallen off the face of the Earth (yet), I’m just working full time and living in a place that doesn’t have reliable internet. Someone in the complex tried to set up a wireless router, and now the internet is down. For some… Continue reading Job – reliable internet = spotty posting
Yay for work!
So I found a job today, which should keep me in the black until November and help me save up enough money for World Fantasy 2010. The job is at a warehouse for a locally based costuming company. It only runs through October, but that’s perfect because the training for the wilderness job starts the… Continue reading Yay for work!
Things I learned from working in a call center
Over the summer I worked part time at a local call center. At the time, it was just what I needed: a flexible job that helped me pay the bills while figuring out where I wanted to go next. That said, I learned very quickly that call center work is not the sort of thing… Continue reading Things I learned from working in a call center
