This one is Scotch, so I dropped the “e” as is traditional. I’ve neglected this spot during my vacation, but a lot of people were offline during this stretch.
I’ve been writing, and it’s gone really well. Once I got done with my Nevada trip, we spent a day recovering. After that, my time was my own. We actually went to a movie in a theater. Something we hadn’t done since before Covid.
I never bothered to count, but probably should have. My productivity is spread across manuscripts, but is somewhere near 40,000 words. I did a lot of reading back, so the editing won’t be completely awful.
It’s five-thirty here, we just finished supper. Honestly, I wrote all day and it flowed really well. Old What’s Her Face has had the Las Vegas marathon on all weekend. It is a great show, but I have kind of seen them all. Although, Vanessa Marcil has a certain ability to make me look up from time to time.
My brain told me to stop, but I may open my MS back up after this drink.
I’ve had a great time. I could easily do this full time if the income were there. We all know it isn’t, but a man can dream.
However, the real world calls, and I’ll be back in harness come Tuesday.
I’m sure tonight will be filled with fireworks and upset dogs. We’ll probably be up late whether we like it or not. When you think of it like that, I will probably finish my drink and dive back in.
I hope you all had a great 2023. I hope you have an even better 2024. I’ll work up my 2024 business plan and share it here after all the resolution posts clear out of WordPress.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year!

If someone would pay me to do this, I could make them proud. I’m about to open my MS after the blog rounds.

I wrote about 10K words, which for me was phenomenal. You blew that out of the ballpark. Something for me to aspire to. Lol
