Good morning, #cosonauts. I slept poorly, which doesn't bode well for today. On the bright side, I learned yesterday that some Russian submarines have escape pods, which will greatly simplify a plot problem in the upcoming #WIP.
Good morning, #cosonauts! Back to the breadjob grindstone today but later I can work on the #wip. I figure two and a half chapters to go.
#WIP update. The party has found where they can acquire the final ingredient for the fancy dish they must prepare for the Princess' wedding party. However, while all the hunter types have headed off to do their thing, my poor chef and her stableboy are forced to confront a Wyvern by themselves. #WritingCommunity #cosowriters #Writing
Went over 90k words tonight in my #wip. Apparently I write doorstops when it comes to fantasy novels. #writingcommunity #cosowriters
Just finished Chapter 39 of the #wip. Onward! #WritingCommunity #writing #cosowriters
I'm in an ugly transition part of my #wip where I need to wrap up this current interstitial/liminal scene so I can move the party into the mountains and finally hunt the damn Wyvern. I hate #writing transitions and always self-sabotage instead of just finishing the goddamn thing. And no, I can't just skip it and come back to write it later. I have to write scenes in the correct order. #WritingCommunity #cosowriters
This is probably nowhere close to what the cover for Posse will look like, but I was messing around with HeroMachine and GIMP today and came up with this. At the very least, it's a concept for my cover artist. #wip #cosowriters #amwriting #writingcommunity
All right, #cosonauts! My next book project is about a squad of special operatives chasing an international terrorist around the world. I'm looking for some #movie recommendations along the same theme. Lay 'em on me! #cosowriters #WritingCommunity #writing #wip
Tonight I need to pick up soil for the new garden box and fill it. Then I can start work on edits for Jackrabbit: Rinse and Repeat! #writing #cosowriters #amwriting #wip
Good morning, #cosonauts! Apparently, my editor was quite, uh, moved by my latest project: "This might be my favorite thing of yours I've ever read. You're so clearly in your element here. The concepts were incredibly clever, the dialogue fantastic. I didn't have a ton of critiques to make, because you wrote a very tight story with a satisfactory ending...
...I demand more Jackrabbit forever.
Also I'm now hungry for bread and cheese." #amwriting #WritingCommunity #writers #cosowriters #wip
Editor informed me mid-read that she is very much enjoying the story and unraveling of the mystery in my time loop book Jackrabbit: Rinse and Repeat. Always good to hear I'm amusing the cynics! #WritingCommunity #writing #cosowriters #wip #amwriting
These poor teens in my #wip are so desperately in love with each other, and every time they start making out, they get interrupted.
Just like real life. #writers #cosowriters #amwriting #WritingCommunity #writing
I'm only about 500 words from hitting 70k on the Roast Wyvern book. Feels like it's going well. It took me almost 69k words before any characters vomited (this is an inside joke with me and one of my friends and fellow Just Cause Universe authors). #writing #cosowriters #amwriting #writers #writingcommunity #wip
Feels like a good day to be #writing at work, since the rain is going to shut down construction today and maybe tomorrow too. #WritingCommunity #writers #amwriting #wip
No idea when I started this #Ubuntu upgrade because timestamps have disappeared from posts, but I'm finally in the home stretch, called "Cleaning up". While this was going on, I played #FreeOrion, surfed #Coso, did some #writing on the #wip, and got a good nap in. Oh, and I made dinner and took a shower. #opensourcelife
I am blazing along on Roast Wyvern and Other Recipes, an epic, low fantasy quest novel more about the gathering of ingredients than fighting monsters and getting treasure. I'm about 65k into it and it will probably be 100k when it's done. Just another epic fantasy doorstop. #WritingCommunity #writers #cosowriters #amwriting #wip
Good morning, #cosowriters! What are you working on this first day of May? #writers #WritingCommunity #amwriting #wip
