Make someone smile. Make someone’s life better. Help those that do good. Ease suffering. Do not hurt where holding is enough. #life #success

My mind is always full. That’s a blessing and a curse. The problem is that it fills faster than I can empty it, and I can’t do everything I wish I could. Time isn’t my enemy, I am. #life

I should check the solar flares… (Seriously).

Death isn’t something to fear. It’s something to accept. So is life. #zen #tao #life #success

If you are going to #mdc3con I want to meet you, even if you’re not a writer. I promise not to quote any Monty Python to taunt you. And as they say, “No purchase required.” @mdc3con @ascamacho #writing

“Donny ‘The Semblance’’ Trough”, a mob boss looking for an identity. #writing #throwawayline

Plan for this eve: transcribe more of my WIP play games ham radio

What if the US govt trained real seals… oh, right… #writing

I’m looking forward to being on these, given my Prohibition era noir/thriller. I hope I can contribute something… #writing @mdc3con #mdc3con

This WIP has humor. It has character. It has mystery. It has action. It has milieu. It feels over-loaded. #writing

I’m having a decent day despite not having accomplished much. Sometimes, you have to enjoy not doing anything. Life isn’t just about accomplishing. Life is about experiencing and living. #life #success

Things I’d like to do in 2022: finally go to Italy finally go to Japan(for more than just a layover) go to an iOS conference publish a few more books go back to Ireland/Denmark/Germany Etc. I won’t hold my breath (or maybe I should) … #life #travel #conference

I hate #covid because my sense of humor has suffered–or maybe others’ response to it. #life #humor

I should eat burgers, Meat with lots of condiments, Salads are healthy. #haiku #food #writing

I really should do a read-through of my posts before I hit send to catch autocorrect subverting my posts/humor…

“Remember when you were small and your father killed the milk man? That’s why they don’t deliver milk now.” #writing #throwawayline

Hm. I’m using a @raspberrypi as my git-server / NAS on an SSD. I’m sure it could run mirrored. I should search online… Pushing to multiple gits is for gits. I don’t want to be one… #nas #faulttolerance

I still need to ink up a backup pen for #mdc3con I’ll do that later. I have the Kaweco inked up as my primary. #fountainpen

It’s like the Swipe. For the price a smooth-writer and huge ink capacity. #fountainpen @gouletpens @twosbi

How do police deal with “strong-arm” robberies when they are the “strrong-arm” of the law? Rhetorical/non-question.

Five pages written, mostly “ambience”, and scene setting. I’m trying to do more since my books tend to be dialogue-heavy. Aphantasia makes it difficult to focus on non-dialogue. #writing #location

Maybe I should read “Bridgette Jones Diary”. Apparently, the book is better than the movie… #books

My problem is I want to do stuff. My other problem is I rarely do it well.
