It’s been some time between blogs, so here’s a quick update! Daily writing still going strong. Over 60,000 words written this year Project Crestfallen semi-delayed to mid May New writing project blooming. Code name: Exalted I’m adjusting well to my new digs, and looking forward to the warming of the […]
Over the past few days, I completed the introductory posts (“The Basics”) for The Self Pub Hub. Though I still want to add imagery to most, I spent a terrible amount of time scouring the Internet for them so I went ahead with the dry versions. These will be updated […]
And then: sore throat. Congestion. Energy drain. Since I’ve been using a spreadsheet to track my life this year, I actually know that it’s been 66 days since I last felt sick. Fascinating! But also shitty, because I used to go YEARS without feeling sick. I remember feeling smug and […]
Today I logged 1,300 words, and it was for a post inside the Self Pub Hub. All the other words to date were mainly in Hunting Midnight or the occasional short, all of which was fiction. This isn’t crazily significant, but thought I’d make the note. Normally I wasn’t counting […]

Today I went to the gym for the first time in like, four months. Because of the move, I now have easy access to my workplace’s health club–which is in fact the first semi-public gym that I ever attended. It’s the place that helped get me over the mental hurdle […]
It only took two (small) car loads, one solid friend, and three hours to pack up all my worldly possessions and ship ’em across town. Now I’m about 70% set up in the new place, acclimating, and intent on establishing some kinda routine. No words yet, but I’m off to […]
Not sure if I mentioned this here yet, but I’m packing up and moving to different part of the city this week. Fairly major shift away from the downtown core to the Greater Toronto Area. Major benefits are cost savings and more time to write (and, hopefully, exercise). The major […]
A bunch of things to report on, but not enough time to gather them all before I leave for Things & Stuff (okay it’s board games) tonight. So, I’ll just note that I am very pleased with this WordPress Theme and the way MostlyLies.com looks and feels right now. Had […]
