Okay, if I can’t type’em, I’ll join’em. Or however that saying goes… This weekend is rocking along very low-key, hiding out at the Ranch and not even cooking a meal this time. Just more nachos. With fajita beef, for one thing. And maybe some non-candied jalapeños. (I wonder how many jalapeño peppers it takes to [...]
Okay, it’s time to call in the doctors. Or maybe the coroner. I’ll even entertain a motion to get a shot or two. Man, this illness has really put me down! I hate being miserable. Nothing tastes good. Food doesn’t taste at all, hardly. some of the medicine’s got flavor, if you can call [...]
I’ve found the only way to make even a little progress on the NaNoWriMo challenge at this point. Besides lots of meds, some naps, and sitting very still, I mean. The answer is nachos. With them, I’ve made nearly 3,000 words today. Almost goal! They’re quick, they’re easy, and if I put enough candied jalapeños [...]
I haven’t felt this bad, for this long, in years. Naturally, just as the Novelasaurus hunt begins. I think I’ve gotten less than 3,000 words so far. At least that only leaves 102,000 to go! In 27 days. I’ll tell you how bad it is: I don’t even feel like cooking. Or eating. Guess I’ll [...]
A great writing effort is only sustained by great snacks. I read that somewhere, and it sounded so much like wisdom that I remembered it. (I think it was snacks. Pretty sure.) Fortunately, there are a lot of good ones out there. Elsewise we’d be running short of great fiction any day. And if the [...]
Dinosaurs don’t write. At least not great fiction. Except one, that is. Me. Well, perhaps I’m fudging a bit on the “great” but not on the dinosaur part. Yes, it’s that time of year again; National Novel Writing Month is off and running! Unfortunately with this head cold, it’s running off without me. The bloody [...]
I’d get out there and dig my grave in the garden, so I can push up some daisies next spring. But that takes energy, at least enough to get out of the bed and crawl outside. That’s not happening. Nor do I feel particularly encouraged to write tomorrow. I ate some crackers, at least. [...]
The next big novel-writing challenge is set to kick off in less than 36 hours. And they may have to launch without me. I’ve got a head cold, and it’s really putting me down. “Sick as a dog” doesn’t begin to describe it. How sick am I? Well, I gave several minutes’ serious consideration to [...] |
