I am now at a point where I'm concerned the book will be TOO long. Not a problem I ever had with school work. #HowdIGetHere? #VTempus #ProjectDaybreak
I attended my twice-monthly local author meetup last night. Someone mentioned working on a series I enjoy. I'm all "Oh! I love that series." She responds "Thanks! I wrote them." I go full "Surprise Pikachu" and finish the evening no longer sure how to talk or interact with people. #VTempus
On the hunt for artists who do sci-fi pulp stuff. Like the weird Norman Saunders stuff (the coolest stuff). For... reasons. Bonus if LGBTQ+! #VTempus #Commission
Spent a LOT of time writing this weekend!*
*Lots of time =/= actually putting many words on a document. The 7 year old is VERY good at pulling focus. #VTempus
I'm not a physicist, so I'm always on edge when I read a new (to me) aspect that I fear breaks the science of the sci-fi book I'm tinkering away on. I think I'm still good, but today's "Oh no" moment is brought to us by "The Andromeda Paradox." #ProjectDaybreak #VTempus
Added a character as a cameo/homage of a dear friend, and suddenly discovered that his character inclusion solves SO MANY plot issues I had. Of course he's still helping me! #ProjectDaybreak #VTempus
Writing time travel books that take place in the future is also tricky when I can no longer assume that the future will have a semblance of a 2024ish status quo. I am proud that the content would DEFINITELY fall into current banned topics though. #VTempus
Been spiraling for a bit, but I think I found the motivation to keep writing. The chapters are going to get a lot more anarchistic though. #VTempus
I read a blog post everyday that summarizes the news of the previous day's events. I realize that I throw myself into writing EVERY time I finish reading the post. "Writing is an act of rebellion" is a helluva motivator to keep moving forward. #VTempus #ProjectDaybreak
The longer it takes me to finish this book, the longer I experience living in the real world, and the more extremist my characters get because of it. #VTempus
Going back through my old posts and saw I've been writing this for over a year! Awesome! Realizing I'm only ~1/4 done... slightly less awesome. Perhaps if I wrote more than a paragraph a day? #VTempus
