Bagong sulatin
Went to the doctor today and immediately felt my symptoms settle down a bit, effectively gaslighting myself so it felt like I was exaggerating everything I was feeling. Doctor was able to chalk some of it to post-Covid gland swelling, so we’re just going to wait for a bit for the symptoms to either disappear…

Look who’s streaming (Day 2)
Still wonky on the lighting pero madaming narating writing-wise in fairness kapag hindi mo “focus” ang writing (kasi focus ko na makapag-focus dahil nagsi-stream) mas playful ang approach ko sa pagsusulat. Ang weird! Parang that quote about that sideways pursuit of happiness. Baka magstream sa YouTube at Twitch nang sabay kapag sanay na. Hindi ko…

Look who’s streaming
Posting my first and ugly test stream here to figure out if I like doing it after a few weeks. Don’t watch it, the audio sucks and I cough a lot in it. I’m not exactly aural but even I got very annoyed by both my voice and the keyboard sounds. Some new mic is…

Things I learned from reading for Escape Pod
I’ve learned by being in writing discussion groups that have pro (authors who’ve been paid market rates in exchange for the right to publish their stories on a venue) writers in them (who don’t know me) that submitting to venues is a super important part of getting published. I say that without cheekiness, because for…

Sinister
Ipinanganak at lumaki akong kaliwete, primarily dahil tinamad na ang mga magulang ko na korekin ako tulad ng ginawa nila sa kapatid ko. Hindi ko naman masabi kung for better or worse ang desisyon na ‘yon dahil wala naman akong panilip sa mga parallel universe kung saan right-handed ako. Wala ring bearing sa’kin ang posibilidad…

39
I should probably just get over this push-and-pull of whether or not I should go back to blogging by coming up with something first draft-y to get it over with. Yesterday was my 39th birthday, which was as good a time as any to not start blogging again. I had seafood dumplings, sushi, and okonomiyaki…

100 Days of Writing: Day 6
100 Days of Writing: Day 6 Did it. More importantly I restarted running today, too, so can we call it a day now? My running plan restarted as well, the app probably thought I was going to give up. Can’t reason with an app, so, got a running thing coming up April 22, scared as…

100 Days of Writing: Day 5
100 Days of Writing: Day 5 Stephen Hawking died today. My story is now in index cards. Did NOT hit my thousand-word mark today. 🙁 Will spring back tomorrow. Update: I managed 400 words in the last 30 minutes. I guess that counts?

100 Days of Writing: Day 4
100 Days of Writing: Day 4 Still at it. Sinubukan ko naman sa computer mag-type kasi medyo bumibilis na takbo ng utak ko para sa kwentong ito. Sana naging okay ang araw mo. Ako okay naman, kumain kami sa Mary Grace nina madam at Paul, at maaga ako umuwi para makapagsulat.

Gastroenteritis at Isang Pangakong Magsulat Araw-Araw
Isang linggo akong nagka-gastroenteritis. A little queasiness, a little low-grade fever, tapos stinging hot diarrhea nang limang araw. Masakit, nakakabwisit. Dahil nagbabadya ang pagbabanyo bawat sandali at nakagapos ako sa tanikala ng sakit ng paghilab ng tyan at pagsisisi sa pagkain ng kung anuman ‘yun na hindi ko maalala, tumambad ang pagkakataong makapagsulat at makapag-isip…
