“The first thing he wrote whenever he started was ‘The End’. That way, he could claim he finished a novel.” #writing #throwawayline

“How many days have you lived that you can’t remember? I bet the majority. You’ve lived an uneventful life, haven’t you?” #writing

“What cathartic hobby do you have?” “Keeping people under my enormous ego.” #writing #throwawayline

A decent day of writing. I’m not happy with the flow in the novel, but that will be ironed out in edits and rewrites. #writing

Good deed done.

Information is just useful junk. Knowledge is what you learn from it. #life #success

This morning, I’m pounding code into submission.

This is the time of year when all the media starts telling us who died this past year.

I’m trying to decide what I should learn in 2026, apart from maybe how to solve a Rubik’s cube. #2026

If you have to work this week and next, thank you. I hope they compensate you. That’s the least they could do.

Well, that coffee didn’t do anything.

Good morning. Have a safe day. Stay warm. Be grateful you are luckier than many. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Plan for tomorrow: — code — write — eat wings of chickens — errands — other stuff as time permits.

Tomorrow feels like a wings kind of day.

Heat wave tomorrow. It’s going up to 54ºF.

Time for some tea.

Do you promote the things you do for fun without worrying about what algorithms may think or chasing followers? Why not? #life

“Life isn’t fun if you take it seriously.” #writing

Nowadays, it seems, you have to distract someone in order to get their attention. #life #failure

The social internets seem quiet this morning.

Winter is here early. No reason to wait for it.

Hello. Midweek. Midproblems. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Plan for tomorrow: — code — write — bake — eat — play?

Just because you’re given a choice, doesn’t mean it must be made. #life #success
