Motivation is for things you have to do but don’t want to do. You or someone else is making you do it. If it’s you, make it something you want to do. If it’s someone else, they are controlling your time and life and you need to leave the relationship. #motivation

My #throwawaylines are lines I come up with, which I would never write in anything I would write. #throwawayline

“Jonathon ‘Pranks’ Jetson was morose. No one lived with him. Even his turtle, Solomon, left him. He’d have to do something about that. He vowed never again to live alone. That day he went out and bought a teddy bear. On the way home, he lost it.” #writing #throwawayline

“He was a ZZTop groupie. His life centered around “the look”. However, he only got as far as the Guitar Hero tutorial. Now, he works in a car dealership and struggles to pay his bills.” #writing #throwawayline #character

“Bodies fell like flies from the sky. This insecticide is super strong, I thought.” #writing #throwawayline

Having too many interests and projects is a sure sign of procrastinating something. I just don’t know what it is… #life #procrastination #success

It’s time for lunch and some free-writing. I need a salad.

I’m spending the day doing a tense-consistency pass through my thriller. #editing

I really hope that Apple introduces the next gen Siri at WWDC. One that does more than just googles and points you at a web page. #wwdc #siri

I just heard an ad for an internet service that said, “Don’t be ashamed by your videos dropping out,” (or words to that effect.). Really? We live in the age of idiotry. #marketing #failure

Happy National Landmine Awareness Day Seriously, this is a thing. Watch your step.

Good morning. Find your niche and exploit it. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Most of the stuff that people do on the internet is not content. It is filler.

“I claim everything that is rightfully mine… and some things which no one wants.” #writing

“Enjoy the ride. Don’t worry about who’s driving. We all end up at the same spot.” #writing

You won’t fly if you think flying is impossible. On the other hand, if you think flying is possible doesn’t mean you’ll fly. #life
