I sometimes imagine the different me's that exist across the multi-verse. Disclaimer: I swear this is going somewhere. Somewhere extremely important actually. On the grand scale of weird things that I think about, this is one of the most affirming. Maybe that's not what you were expecting. Maybe you thought that this would be a... Continue Reading →
Update: Memory of the Black Sun–My NaNoWriMo 2014 Project–is Finished
Where I Wrote: At home, in the one room I always use for writing. How I Feel About What I Wrote: Strange. The ending is a complication. The Mood I Brought to the Table: I remember being really happy. I want to say determined, but that would imply that there was some difficulty. There wasn't; I woke up,... Continue Reading →

30 Days of NaNoWriMo – Day 27: Giving Thanks Getting Writer’s Block
Where I Wrote: Home. I should've mentioned this earlier, but I never intended to go out on Thanksgiving. I mean... it's Thanksgiving. How I Feel About What I Wrote: Exhausted. Not horrible, but absolutely tired out. The Mood I Brought to the Table: Fine. Definitely a bit distracted though. It's just that kind of day. The Experience: There's... Continue Reading →
30 Days of NaNoWriMo – Day 26: The Prep Session
Where I Wrote: The New York Public Library in Bryant Park.

How I Feel About What I Wrote: Really... Continue Reading →
30 Days of NaNoWriMo – Day 25: Failed at Outside, but Won at Writing
Where I Wrote: Not the Continental Center. Not under the Brooklyn Bridge. Not at either of my South Street Seaport spots. Although not for want of seriously trying...

30 Days of NaNoWriMo – Day 23: Writing Fighting
