Creator Journals 9/10/25 I started revisions on The Kingdom’s Disdain book 11 today, and let me tell you, the daily Beach Knight grind has improved my writer’s instinct immensely! I’m improving the structure in so many of my old sentences and adding a lot to the word count. So, look forward to The Kingdom’s DisdainContinue reading “Circles”

Kinda Tired
Creator Journals 9/9/25 I released chapter 2 to my beta readers today. It was an off day. I slept till 11 and I’m still tired. I think I need a Sleep Week, where all I do is sleep. I might have enough PTO saved up to make that a reality, but with my luck, I’dContinue reading “Kinda Tired”
How Far We’ve Come
Creator Journals 9/6/25 Well, I thought I’d just sit down and fix chapter 2 in one go, but it turns out it’s only 3k words long (as opposed to the later chapters, which are all at least 10k) and really kind of a mess. I think this one may take a bit to reach theContinue reading “How Far We’ve Come”
Levels and Levels
Creator Journals 8/18/25 I went to the dentist again today, but they didn’t keep me waiting around, so I didn’t get to write. It was very early, so I took a nap afterwards, and didn’t get to write until three. I was very relaxed today, so it was actually a little bit hard getting backContinue reading “Levels and Levels”
The Power of the Clock
Creator Journals 7/31/25 It’s 3:20 PM and I’m not at the height of my powers, but I still have enough strength to do what needs to be done. July is ending, and, instead of finishing, Beach Knight is becoming longer. Today I wrote 500 more words. I also began outlining the second book. I hopeContinue reading “The Power of the Clock”
Uneven Chapters
Creator Journals 7/29/25 I woke up really excited to write today, and indeed, I’m proud to report I’m 2k words into chapter eight, which is shaping up to be just as long as the previous two! I’ve run into just one main snag. The later chapters in my book are becoming significantly longer than theContinue reading “Uneven Chapters”
Four Previews
Creator Journals 7/25/25 Chapter 7 of Beach Knight is complete in its roughest form possible. 10K words of me just trying to get from plot-point to plot point. In celebration of that fact, I thought I might just share some totally random text snippets with zero context and glue them to the chalk-board of myContinue reading “Four Previews”
Six Things That Make Me Happy
Creator Journals 7/24/25 I was pretty negative in my last post, so today I’m going to balance it out by listing some things that make me happy. Feel free to comment things that make you happy as well, reader! Finishing a blog post. That feels pretty nice too. Today’s writing tip: Write more and you’llContinue reading “Six Things That Make Me Happy”
The Purpose of This Blog?
Creator Journals 7/21/25 The main purpose of this blog is for it to function as a personal journal of sorts. I wanted to get used to the idea of posting something daily, and since I try to write fiction daily, I thought that talking about my process might be the best approach. I do worryContinue reading “The Purpose of This Blog?”
What Builds Your World?
Creator Journals 7/20/25 My players only made it through about half of what I had prepared last night. It was fun! But I think there are a few areas I could improve in. I wrote them down for next time. It’s the last day of my work weekend, and I’m pretty spent. I basically alwaysContinue reading “What Builds Your World?”
