“People tell you to never give up. You may succeed, but at what cost?” #writing

“The villains in your life aren’t megalomaniacs, unless you’re on social media or follow politics. Bullies come in all sizes.” #writing

I should dive into the Micro API. I havent’ really used it for anything.

If you feel, you are not thinking. If you don’t think, you react. The tiger always has faster reactions than you. #life #success

It’s easy to be overwhelmed. Take time away from everything to find the root cause, then deal with it. Anger and hate are also manifestations of not being able to deal with the facts you are presented with. #life

Support your friends. Support those in need. Support the good. #life

Wings ordered. Eagles are about to lose, since I’m watching…

Know your limits. Explore them. Don’t live there. #life #success

As a writer/author, do you ever post critical reviews of someone else’s work online? #writing #editing #review

Just because someone is rich, doesn’t make them smart or kind. What they do with their wealth and whether they want more tells you about the kind of person they are. It’s more important to be destitute and kind, than wealthy and cruel and self-centered. #life

Whenever I watch the Phillies, they lose. That’s my superpower. I suck the luck out of everything…

NaNoWriMo begins on Tuesday, as does November. I think I’ll start using the new SwiftUI version of my writing app. It’s not done, and I keep reinventing it, but the core is functional. If it starts crashing, I’ll revert to my previous version. #writing #nanowrimo #auteureist

Ok, I made a first pass and unfollowed about 1/3 of the people I follow on Twitter. That’s a good start. I’m not posting completely from Micro, apart from my once-daily Twitter check. Sanity for the win. Hate-mongering for the fail.

When there are two sides to one issue, it usually means that one side is wrong, or both are. #life

I think today would be an excellent day to eat wings while I do some free-writing.

Good news. The Watsonian novel is almost ready for the editor. I need to do one final read-through and whatever cleanup I find. #writing #holmes #watson

Happy Haunted Refrigerator Day Yes, it’s a thing.

So Long, and Thanks For All the Birds

I’ll be leaving Bird, apart from cross-posting from Micro which I’ve been doing since joining Micro. Elon’s purchase, and the vitriol and endless spam tweets are untenable.

Back. I made a mistake and had to think and evaluate things, so I took the week away from everything. I’ve been pushing myself to accomplish more and as a result was stressing myself, which caused the issue. I’m rebalanced. Apologies to all.

I’m going to shut down for the day. I need to rebalance.

Lunch consumed. Several more chapters nearing completion—more to go.

This year went unexpectedly fast. I have Philcon, then the holidays, such as they are remaining.
