So, I decided I don’t like my idea for doing this year’s novel, fifteen hundred words in. Instead, I am going to work on what will be a serial web novel thingie that I’ve started and just count the progress towards NaNoWriMo for fun.
Which means it won’t be posted as I write it, as [...]

I have a lot of things that I’d like to do in my life. Too many, in some respects. I’m generally good at recognizing the practicality/plausibility of achieving each of them, and in some cases trimming the ideas down to make them more doable.
But there is one such dream that I have which I honestly don’t think will ever happen, mostly because the first requirement would be having lots of money. And I mean lots of money. As I like to tell myself frequently, however, there is always the chance (however infinitesimally small) that I will someday come into a very large quantity of money, so sometimes I pass my mental idle time by planning out the logistics of achieving this dream if I had the money.

It’s no good. I am afraid that I must admit defeat.
You see, I write. I currently have two novels in progress, one of which I intend to have the first draft completed and be well on the way to the second by autumn. In addition, I have a series of… well, short [...]

The process has begun!
It’s been a while since I last went to college, and I still don’t have much to show for it other than some university apparel and a few thousand in loans. I still dream of someday having a real college degree. So, a few months ago, I decided that this [...]
