The intent: skim through my wip and break up dialogue with action. The reality: rework my opening scene (again) and add extra dialogue.

@TheBestTomo Once had a job that decided we had to come in five minutes earlier to count up the tills between every shift. I flat out refused because they weren't paying me for the time.

Ah editing, what an absolute joy it is. I spent a solid 3 hours writing time today and only added 200 words. I guess I should be thankful. When I get around to line edits I'll be lucky to add just 200 characters in 3 hours.

Arg. I think I need to ruin a perfectly good book scene just because of a little thing like the laws of physics.

I think I might be able to scrape out 90k words total, but definitely not the 100k I was aiming for. No worries, even if I lose 10% in edits I should still be within the expected sci-fi wordcount.

After leaving their broom-closet sized cell on a space ship, my protagonists get to experience an oubliette, prison, and max sec. Past Tom did not leave me with much leeway for expanding the plot for the second half of this wip.

I think I'm basically done with new scenes for the third quarter of my wip. Turns out there's not a whole lot of room for plot development when the three main characters are all trapped in a cell the size of a broom closet.

Re-reading through my wip, I noticed that at one point I referred to there being "1.21 billion" fragments of code in a computer program. I couldn't help but giggle at the reference.

@tomiswriting :) I checked last night. I'm beginning to believe I either threw it away, or I royally angered the house elf.

Being Old: Walking around for 15 minutes looking for your water bottle, forget what you are looking for, do something else, remember, look again, realize you washed it and put it away, but don't remember doing either of those things. P.S. Roku Remote is still missing. Sigh.

Me: writes 2,000 words Me: shuts everything down and goes to bed My brain: okay, so you definitely need to do a scene where these two characters meet and here's all the dialogue for it.

@zevonesque todo lists are great at just getting something out of my head so I can focus on doing it rather than remembering it.

I can feel a couple of blogs coming on. I've a list of things to do. Blogs are not on the list. They will be when I've done them. Along with a ☑️ I really don't know why I persevere with these lists.

@CERobbAuthor I'm perfectly happy ignoring my "ideas" folder even exists. If I ever need it I know it's right there waiting in the cloud.

I'm available for game writing jobs! I've got a handful of indie gigs under my belt with well over 100k words written between dialogue, decision trees, combat enocounters, lore, and narrative in both video games and TTRPGs. DM me for a portfolio and references.

So close! I wanted 80k words in the bag by last Thursday but had a less than thrilling writing week. My plan to use the long weekend to catch up got me within 500 words, and the rest will just have to be rolled up into the next stage.

I had a few hours free and a whole lot of words to write. Sat at computer, door shut, headphones on, phone muted. Suddenly hit by extreme hay fever symptoms. Except it's raining and all the windows are shut, so either I'm actually falling ill or my brain is trying to trick me.
