Third (plus) week of NaNo
I normally blog on Tuesday. Today is not Tuesday. I meant to check in on the book’s progress before now, I just wasn’t able to fit it in. The good news is that the writing has gone well! As of right now, TSC is 2,847 words away from the initial… Read the rest…

Second week of NaNoWriMo
I’ve always known about one particular weakness in my writing productivity, it just became more pronounced in the past week.

Examining book formatting: The Sword of Midras
Before I started writing my own books, I honestly didn’t really notice how books were formatted. There were little things I noticed, like pretty graphics, but I didn’t really pay much attention. I didn’t sit and examine them or anything like that–I just wanted to get back to the story.… Read the rest…
