So tonight’s blog post was supposed to be about something from my actual book, rather than just me talking about how I’m either writing or not, and how it’s going. However, as I composed that post, it just got more in-depth and more detailed, and I realized I didn’t want to rush it; I want…

Despite getting knocked over the head by the Good Idea Fairy from yesterday’s post, I didn’t get enough done after work to have any hope of wrapping up this chapter by tonight (or at least, this weekend) unless I skip today’s post and just keep on writing.

I’ve written articles, short stories, and longer fiction, but this blog is dedicated to the fantasy YA novel trilogy I’m currently working on. I’m calling the first book in…
It is the second day of this blog’s existence, and the fifth — and probably not yet final — layout/theme choice, and I’m still noodling ideas for what to make of it overall. I plan to look for a daily writing prompt book at the Barnes & Nobel near my office tonight, something to give…
