One reason I hate planning, when I do it, is I think maybe my 3rd tier character is/should be my protagonist. #writing #planning

Time to lay out another character arc for my space opera. I’ll have to use an app to weave all the arc together on a timeline so they all make sense. #writing #character #arc

OK. Another batch of noir chapters edited. Time for a break.

Share your happiness. #life #success

That’s what I want from #wwdc – a way to access the individual contents of a FileWrapper without having to load the entire map first. That would solve all my problems. #ios #filewrapper

Yup it looks like iOS loads and maps the entire FileWrapper. Ugh. Time to rethink my use of FIleWrappers. Back to square one I go. It’s weird my “messy” implementation that I’m using is smaller and works, but a pain to use. #ios #filewrapper

I guess I’m going to have to rethink the data file format. Or maybe figure out how to get Swift to read a file wrapper without actuallly reading the actual file wrapper into memory first. Ugh. And I was making a lot of progrees. #ios #swift #wrapper #cloudkit

OK. My app is failing while reading the document even before it gets into my app. This tells me I’ve hit some sort of data file size limit in #iOS. My redesigning the file has caused more issues than they solved. Instruments doesn’t tell me anything either. #swiftui #ipados

Happy Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day.

Hello. Celebrate the Friday. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Problems exist to test your willingness to change. #life #success

Good morning. It’s going to be a low-key day here. No sleep/rest last night. I know better than try to do stuff. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Making mistakes is never a waste of time if you learn from them. #life #success

As a writer, where is your “sacred spot” that energizes you and opens the world up to you? Mine’s in a park. #writing #motivation

Plan for tomorrow: -iOS -Python -editing -reading -bake muffins.

People only follow rules when they are convenient. Otherwise, they make up new rules. #life #failure

Time for a relaxing cup of tea.

It’s that time again: editing.

Veggies for lunch. Corn, tomato, fairy tale eggplant and garlic.
