Some days, I feel I could do this for a living. Then, I remember, I hate marketing. Keep your day job (if you love it). Keep your passion. The twain need not meet. #writing #life #success

I have two major characters. They both have flaws. I need to force them together and have them fall in love (they are drawn to each other). This isn’t a romance novel, however. Usually, one has to die. We shall see where this goes… #writing #character

One way I know I have a good story is when I have two or three questions for every sentence I write. If I have questions, the readers will be interested (probably). Answering those questions will be the hard part. #writing #amwriting

“We all resemble what we have become.” #writing #throwawayline #life

Oh well, I’d set out to write something funny/humorous this time, but my characters are pulling me into a darker place. But I want to write numerous stuff again…. Maybe next time. #writing #character

Time to switch gears, and do some work on the novel. #writing

You don’t really appreciate the Mac environment unless you spend a couple of days trying to get a basic TFT display to work with a #raspberrypi It’s almost as bad as Windows. Drivers, scripts, tweaking, and you still end up with a white screen. “Things just don’t work.” #linux #windows #failure …

It’s time to eat copious amounts of things.

Cool. I have a Mandelbrot working with e-paper. #raspberrypi #mandelbrot

Happy National Duran Duran Appreciation Day Yes, it’s a thing.

Good morning. Be humble, but don’t be a push-over. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Is what you’re doing worth the time and effort, or are you just keeping busy? #life #success #failure

“Have you listened to the rain kill your family?” #writing

“Roger discovers more than love in the afterlife. He learns everyone he ever knew had tried to kill him.” #writing #prompt

“Squirrels just wanna have fun.”

“My wife asked me if I wanted to go out and eat. I replied, ‘I don’t care.’ Then, I remembered I had no wife.” #writing

“Pray you never meet me in a well-lit room.” #writing

I like where this book is going. The characters are complex—real. I need to bring that out more, change my MC’s name, and to stop thinking of my characters are YA. I need to rewrite with adults in mind. The world is cool (what little I’ve hinted at). #writing

When I wait person asks me, “What will you have?”, to take my order. My reply is always: “Fun.” #life #success #humor

I have a full Rhodia notebook worth of words on this new book. I should start transcribing them while I can still decipher my hand writing. Despite the pages, I’m still on Chapter 2, I think #writing

Just heard someone from the local base talk about Star Trek whales. I’m imagining C5Ms with whales on board, for navigation. #startrek #airforce #story #prompt

There needs to be a blue condiment. #food
