It’s nearly 1:30 a.m. and I’m ready to leave work (after spending an hour playing Bejeweled and generally wasting time online). Figured that if I post that I’m going to go home and write, I’ll actually do it. Right? I actually had a great idea for an extra scene in Read more…
Unfortunately, all my time hasn’t been spent making writing my day job. I have, however, managed to get a few things done.
