Hello. If you make someone smile today, you have made that person’s life better. Make someone smile. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

“What was the last book you read?” “I’m not dead yet.” #books #reading

Don’t forget, tomorrow isn’t Friday. You still have to be productive for another day.

I just created an ancient myth/legend for this story. It’s pretty good and works well with the plot. I knew I needed one going in, but I had no idea what it would be. It’s time to quit for today. 32K words total. #writing #nanowrimo

Weird. Weird. It’s going to be 75ºF tomorrow and Saturday. If climate change isn’t real, then it’s human-based change. November is supposed to be cold-to-frigid.

Plan for tomorrow: iOS writing find lunch and do some free-writing. I need some time away from NaNo writing. play a game (maybe)

Remember: be kind, be patient, be giving. Everyone is fighting their own demons. #life #success

OK. It’s time for a break. Since the story veered from my original plan, I had to wrangle it back a bit to make a beat work. So far, today hasn’t produced great writing, but it’s a good story. #writing #nanowrimo

Ok. I’ve found a few things I want to see at @philcon next week. If you’re going and want to hang out or just stare at me write, let me know. I may even buy a round of something or other. #philcon

I should really post a blog about my experiences w/Micro.blog and Mastodon after coming from Bird.

It’s time for a break. I want to check out the latest @philcon schedule.

Happy National Scrapple Day. … I should get some next time I go grocery shopping. I haven’t had any in ages.

This applies to life as well. #life #chess
