Creator Journals 7/5/25 Last night was the 4th of July so I watched “Sinners”. It was really well written, direct and acted, but I wasn’t sure what it was trying to say. I also drank way too much wine. Today I am suffering the consequences of that wine while I hide away in a littleContinue reading “The Fifth of July”

Freedom
Creator Journals 7/4/25 Happy 4th! However you might feel about the USA right now, the date is certainly July 4th. That part is true, and I hope the day is a good one for you. When I was a kid, I used to get up in the morning and watch a small local parade, thenContinue reading “Freedom”
Insert The Vibes
Creator Journals 7/3/25 It’s my day off today. I did a bit of outlining, but I’m going into town soon to meet my wife and watch some fireworks, so I don’t have a lot of extra time. I was going over some of the earlier parts of BK and realized I want to do moreContinue reading “Insert The Vibes”
Head Full of Projects
Creator Journals 7/2/25 I’m hot off a writing streak. Just pounded out a thousand words for chapter 6. I’m introducing a lot of my side characters in this chapter. I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to cram so many introductions into one chapter, but also, I think it could be a neat challenge. Continue reading “Head Full of Projects”
Passing Mist
Creator Journals 7/1/25 July has begun. Summer is upon us. It really feels like Spring just ended, but oh well. Today I was supposed to do a lot of outlining. Admittedly, I only did a little bit of outlining. Better than nothing, I guess. For whatever reason, my mind and body really didn’t want toContinue reading “Passing Mist”
A Voice of Their Own
Creator Journals 6/30/25 Well, it looks like the waiting room at the dentist’s office is the perfect place to get writing done. I drilled through a quick thousand words today while I was waiting for my wife. The scene I’m writing is going on longer than expected. I planned for a quick info dump withContinue reading “A Voice of Their Own”
Give It Some Spirit
Creator Journals 6/29/25 My spirit is churning. My trip out of town is continuing this week, so I still haven’t had any time to write, but I am going to see the new How To Train Your Dragon movie. I do not expect it to be good. The original was amazing and a live actionContinue reading “Give It Some Spirit”
What Is a Bad Guy?
Creator Journals 6/28/25 I didn’t really write today, I’m visiting a friend out of town, but I did finish chapter 5, and I’m excited to get into the meat of chapter 6. Saw a movie, M3GAN 2.0, and it was really good. I love horror and slasher movies, and I love when a villain getsContinue reading “What Is a Bad Guy?”
Buy Now For Sand!
Creator Journals 6/27/25 I did a chunk of revision, then deflated. I spent several hours afterward being deflated. Sometimes that happens to me. However, I am determined to finish revising chapter 5! I’m going over it now as I type this blog post. I’ve got a little more passion for my story. I’m coming upContinue reading “Buy Now For Sand!”
Do Something Besides Writing
Creator Journals 6/26/25 Do something besides writing. Find a passion that doesn’t hinge on narrative or fiction. GO have fun. I’m stuck here in this computer revising. I’m dragging my feet a bit revising some of my latest chapters. I’m trying to bring them from draft 0 (misspellings, sections skipped over, characters talking the sameContinue reading “Do Something Besides Writing”
