It’s Wednesday and I haven’t written for 5 days because I’m terrified of how to start the second scene of the novella I’m overhauling. But yeah, through some self-trickery and grit I managed to squeeze some blood from a stone, 287 words in 30 minutes, in the only writing session…
Leave a commentI woke up later than desired today, but I’m still reeling from the monthly blood bath so I say it doesn’t count. I made myself a sandwich I’ve been timing to make in the shortest amount of time. I’ve been fixated on it for two weeks now. [Skip to the…
Leave a commentWent 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…
Leave a commentStill 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…
Leave a commentPosting 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…
Leave a commentI’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…
Leave a commentIpinanganak 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…
Leave a commentI 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…
Leave a comment100 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…
Leave a comment100 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?
