Creator Journals 10/22/25 I’m watching the Chainsaw Man movie tonight. I’m very excited. Chainsaw Man is like my second favorite manga! Had a weird day yesterday. I felt really strange, but sitting down to write helped me calm down. I’m two chapters from being done with The Cause of Death; A Vulture’s Tale. I knowContinue reading “Cutting Through”

Carry On Carrion
Creator Journals 10/22/25 October is nearing its end. I’m happy and also sad to see it go. It has been a wild ride. My car got damaged twice by the same construction site. Carry on. I missed another day. I was literally so tired after my podcast interview yesterday that I had to go toContinue reading “Carry On Carrion”
Here It Is
Creator Journals 10/20/25 Here’s the blog. I’m writing it and posting it. I wish Vulture was easier for me to write. She’s a character that means a lot to be, but some element of her quintessential self is still hard for me to grasp and replicate. Writing feels hard lately. I’m very distracted. I managedContinue reading “Here It Is”
Reborn on Gusher Day
Creator Journals 10/16/25 Well, after about 170 days I finally missed one. I’ve decided that instead of trying to “Make it up” somehow, it would be better to just try and get past it and move on, so here I am, back on the horse. Today is a personal holiday. I call it Gusher Day.Continue reading “Reborn on Gusher Day”
Facing Darker Layers
Creator Journals 10/13/25 I got a haircut today and I don’t hate it. Haircut used to always make me feel weird, but I think I’ve locked down a style that I feel sort of comfortable with. Off day. Took me all afternoon to revise chapter 3. I still feel like it could get better, butContinue reading “Facing Darker Layers”
Perfecting Vulture
Creator Journals 10/12/25 I spent most of the day driving around for work. Tomorrow I’m going to sleep and I’m going to sleep so hard. So, what has my literary journey looked like today? Well, I brought the Hellboy Omnibus to work with me and didn’t look at it at all. I thought a lotContinue reading “Perfecting Vulture”
Try Brain?
Creator Journals 10/9/25 I was off work today, which means I got 8 hours of sleep instead of my usual 5! I wanted to spend the day finishing my very first revision of Beach Knight, but I got tired out and only managed to do like 10 pages. I’m supposed to be dedicating this monthContinue reading “Try Brain?”
Vulture Ascending
Creator Journals 10/7/25 It was cooler today, and the sidewalk was strewn with Fall leaves. I finished chapter 9 today. That means I have one more to write and then a crap-load of revision. I’m still trying to figure out everything I want to change, but it will take quite a bit of work toContinue reading “Vulture Ascending”
Final Week of Drafting
Creator Journals 10/6/25 Monday. The final week of rough drafting. Well, chapter 8 got split in two. There are going to be ten chapters now. I don’t like that. I really felt like this should be a Nine book. I may have to go back and combine chapters 2 and 3. That could work honestly,Continue reading “Final Week of Drafting”
Spooky Sunday Update
Creator Journals 10/5/25 It’s still October 5th. I haven’t missed it. I’m not too late! It’s a Sunday, so as usual, I didn’t write anything. I rewatched “Train To Busan” which is probably my favorite zombie movie of all time (I go back and forth between this and the classic “Night of the Living Dead”)Continue reading “Spooky Sunday Update”
