Why do most movies pivot around love and kindness being the defining characteristic of humans when there is so little of it? #life #failure

Looks like this will be another great #mdc3con lineup this year. #writing #author

Stick with me here… peanut butter and jelly ramen, but without all the soy/salt.

That was fun. The first real bike ride in years. It was short, about 5 miles. I want to see how my legs react tomorrow. Really like the e-Bike. Nicest ride of all the bikes I’ve owned. #biking

Time to ride the bike

Taking a quick break from mind-dumping notes for the novel(s). Question to the writers: When/if you plan, which do you plan first? Characters and then put them in a world, or the world and build your characters into it? Or both together? I tend to do both. #writing #planning

You have to realize that life isn’t full of distractions. Distractions are life. Which distractions you focus on, are what make your life. #life #success

I’m going to spend the morning writing notes on my next novel before I forget them #writing

Good morning. Get outside today. Look up. Look at the sky and if it’s raining feel the rain. Time for the ceremonial coffee

If you don’t stand for something you will kneel to everyone. ancient proverb I just made up

In a world of chaos and hate, today wasn’t bad as things go.

Time to do some meditation.

Potato crusted crab cake. #dinner

I have a couple days to kill (read edit and write stuff) in PA before the Penn Writers Conf starts. I have a twinkling of an idea for my next first draft. #writing

Grabbing some dinner in Doylestown. Great weather.
