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”

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”
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”
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!”
It Was Just That Easy
Creator Journals 6/23/25 Today I drove my wife to the dentist and while I was sitting in the waiting room, I cranked out 1000 words on my phone. I did it within a span of 15-20 minutes. It was just that easy. Is the lesson here that I need to go to weird locations andContinue reading “It Was Just That Easy”
Egg of Something Profound
Creator Journals 6/22/25 They say that going to new places, uncommon places, even little things like taking a different path to work in the morning can stimulate the mind to be more creative. I worked at a different location for most of the weekend, and I did different kinds of jobs. I’m looking at BeachContinue reading “Egg of Something Profound”
Creative Crave
Creator Journals 6/21/25 Work has never been busier. I haven’t written any Beach Knight at all today. I ate my lunch at 130pm (I usually eat it at 10am). It’s been a wild and crazy weekend. The upside, writing-wise, is that I learn for the Beach Knight. I want to write about him. I craveContinue reading “Creative Crave”
Summer’s Grace
Creator Journals 6/20/25 Realized yesterday that my self-imposed deadlines are kind of stressing me out a lot. When I made those deadlines, I didn’t realize my job was going to be a hurricane all summer. I need to give myself more grace. That isn’t my fault. I want to do this for the love ofContinue reading “Summer’s Grace”
Ferm’s POV
Creator Journals 6/19/25 Are the titles a bad decision? I feel like I was getting more views before I started using titles. I kind of like them, but I’m a little disappointed by the results. Originally, I didn’t want to use titles because I wanted these blog posts to take as little energy as possibleContinue reading “Ferm’s POV”
Loud Justice
Creator Journals 6/18/25 Today was a disastrous day at work. Literally an all-day stress adventure kind of situation. I didn’t get to write 1k words. I got to beef up my outline for chapter 6 just a little bit, but that’s about it. Even this journal entry is coming at the end of my day,Continue reading “Loud Justice”
