Merry Christmas

Posted on November 28th, 2007 in Blogging

Prepping for the holidays. Who says that there be no Blogger Templates?

These are from outside sources and require a little tweaking. When I am not in despair mode I shall tell you more.

You may find these and more at Final Sense.

In December I look forwards to picking up some simple characters with no difficult, out of whack relationships in oppressive future ages. They are simply a joy to write: Arcady and Zene, in Crime and Violins.

Decision: I WILL DO IT

Posted on November 28th, 2007 in Writing

I will finish that book–whatever it takes.

Even if I must hand it in and write past Friday. After 9pm on November 30th, I will not sleep until the book is finished. I am not perfect at pacing myself right now, but I know I’m close enough to do something crazy like that.

You can’t always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You get what you need

Living with the possibility of fail

Posted on November 28th, 2007 in Writing

Okay. It’s not yet the last day of November. I may still actually finish the first draft of the second book. I really need to finish it. I need to go into December knowing that I’m worth something more than work, which currently has this groove going on it:

Sacrifice: Your role may be thankless, but if you're willing to give it your all, you just might bring success to those who outlast you.

Funny part is, if I were less principled, I wouldn’t be having that problem right now.

And the underlying question at work is

Worth: Just because you're necessary doesn't mean you're important.

If it weren’t for writing, I would cut ‘em open here and now.
