This and That

I need to update this blog, and I skipped Wednesday. I can testify as to what happens to your stats if you dare to skip a regular day.

Last night was my critique group meeting. I fared fairly well, but have a couple of things to work on. That's why we go, right?

I've been waiting for the rest of my birthday gift to arrive, and it was delivered yesterday. My work day starts at 4:00 AM, then I had my meeting. I managed to scarf down a microwave burrito and opened the boxes. I had to go to bed so I could function today, but now it's the weekend.

My brown table doesn't show everything off well, but I'm pretty excited about it all. I only had a few seconds to mess with everything. I'm writing this post on my slick new keyboard, and I like it. I'll probably mess with it a bit more tonight after this goes live.

I'm kind of jazzed about trying out the new Apple Pencil. I may not share my stick drawings, but that doesn't mean I'm not enjoying myself.

I also took Tuesday night to wake up my sourdough starter. Tituba is ready to bake something this weekend.

I've been procrastinating about starting my next novel. I need to finish editing The Playground at the same time, buuut, now that I have my keyboard my last excuse disappeared.

I'm looking forward to some baking, a bit of reading I want to finish, repairs to my manuscript based upon critiques, and maybe a first chapter of my next project.

Sorry I changed up the schedule this week. Lisa enjoyed her fashion show, and things are back to normal at the writing cabin. (As normal as they ever get, that is.)

  3. Happy Birthday Craig! So you’re a Sagittarius! My blogging schedule’s completely out. I try to blog mon,wed,fri for bean’s blog but I don’t think I even have a schedule for the writing blog. Truth be told I don’t notice when people muss their schedule, I only notice if they are regular bloggers and haven’t blogged for a week+. Your posts come to me e-mail do I read as they arrive 😀
