I’m rewriting more of my story than I had originally planned. I’m finding all sorts of issues and ways to improve it. I know it’s better, but it’s work I’d rather not do. Why can’t I be perfect like all the other authors? ;) #writing #editing

I can’t connect to my iPhone or iPad, iCloud refuses to sync on the simulators. The only thing that seems to work is using the Mac as a target for iOS. Have I told you how much I despise XCode? #xcode #failure

Time for lunch. I started another read-through before doing more editing/rewriting. I’m slowly whipping this story into shape. #writing

Happy National Ampersand Day
