Once more I have to report a complete lack of work this last week. It is abysmal and depressing. Must snap out of this rut and get back to work.

Hurm. Lets forget last week. And the lateness of this post. Got the rough draft finished, as mentioned before, but since then…nada. Easter braek, parents visiting, other stuff just all seemed to conspire with general laziness. Not that I haven’t been thinking about the story – I’ve a few plot changes to do in the [...]
It is often hard to judge a movie by a preview. Sometimes the only good bits are in the preview and the rest of the movie is terrible. The most recent preview of the upcoming Terminator Salvation movie, the forth in the series, certainly looks very very good. Hopefully the rest of the movie is [...]
The rough draft of Winter Wolves is complete, finally. Did around 1600 words today to wrap it up and the grand total of draft comes to around 55,600 words. Much work remains to be done, especially on the ending. It is decent, but has the potential to be much better. Plus need to add another [...]

I’ve just put the first three chapters, some 17K words, up on the authonomy site. For those who don’t know of it, it is a site run by Harper Collins where people display there novels for others to review and at the end of each month, HC takes the top 5 and sends them to [...]
There are days I wish I had a save button so I could reload. Case in point yesterday. Was driving making a pickup and just short of home there was a dull clunk from the engine and the car stopped. Two hours later after getting roadside assist and a tow to a mechanic, who luckily [...]
Week in Review: Week Thirteen 2009

A quarter of the way through the year already – where does time go. Last week was rather poor, with slightly less than 5000 words written, well short of what I’d like. Also, despite plans to finish the rough draft, I am still three chapters short. This week it must be done… I did, however, [...]
