Wash Your Hands

As I’ve said before, not all of the quotes that I post to discuss are ones that I agree with. This week’s one by Robert A. Heinlein is a case in point. The reason I went ahead and posted it is because I found it absolutely hilarious! Beyond my disagreements on writing needing to be […]

Do It in Private

“Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.” – Robert A. Heinlein

“Project Panama”

I’m someone who is really precious with my books. Like, to the point where you generally can’t tell I’ve read a book by the time I’m done with it. Which means I don’t lend out my books to others. Not unless it’s a secondhand book that’s already battered to begin with. Like ones from book […]

It took me a few seconds to realize what had happened, but it ruled out pretty much everything I could have […]

This was both to enjoy my holiday, but also to just focus on some other things after writing 100k. As always, the inspiration and drive didn’t vanish, but the muse did quieten a little and the plot […]

Dislikes Editing

“No author dislikes to be edited as much as he dislikes not to be published.” – Russell Lynes
