Saturday, Some Semblance of a PLN

Today, I aim to write something for Weird Writer Wednesday, likely about nibbling problems to death. I shall also be working on the daily tale. THEN I shall do something towards my cover art.

I can do this. It's beating the inertia that's the issue.

Maybe that's what I'll write about for this coming Wednesday.

But first, I must get on with the stuff that earns money. Even if it is a small amount of money.

Thursday, Shopping, Anxiety, and New Draft

I have commenced rewriting Book One of A Devil's Tale, but I hope the whole process takes less time than four dingdang years.

Some of it is a little touch-up.
Some of it is a complete rewrite.
Some of it is new material.

My characters need space to be three-dimensional. Especially Kosh's crew. So, as I have been joking with the read-through group - we're going to need a bigger book.

It's still going to be a sextology, because I can't think

Monday, Overprepared?

Apparently, yesterday was the hottest September day on record, here in Sunny Queensland. It was PERISHING hot in the nerd cave. And since I don't want to do that again, my PLN runs thusly:

  • Wake up early [today was 1AM]
  • Do my work during the cool hours
  • Sleep off the hot hours
  • Lather, rinse, repeat
  • Until we get some variant of atmosphere control in the nerd cave.

I foresee an absolutely miserable summer for myself, but at least I shall be able

Friday, Teh PLN

[To the tune of We're Off To See The Wizard] I'm off to see the vampires, to go get some samples of blood..

Fed self and felines, had breakfast. Today, after my lovelies get back from whatnot and I finish my breakfast... I am thence off.

When I come back, I am icing my stupid fucking ankle whilst working on my silly darn book cover for the thing I wrote LAST YEAR.

It's a bit procrastinate-y around here. NOT helped by the

Thursday, Shopping and a New Schedule

Obviously, there has to be a new regime. A new day for my Patreons. A new schedule for Weird Writer Wednesday. Basically, because I don't have the time schedules I used to.

So.

My pln for Weird Writer Wednesday is to write it ahead of time and press the Publish button on Wednesday.

I'll likely end up doing that on the same day I put the Patreon stuff to post. Which, given that everyone has money on Wednesday [as far as I

Monday, Backup Reads, Promptcast and So On

The Archive only had one story for the backups. It is Slow Season, so it might not be a sign of dire warnings. I hope.

I wrote half my Promptcast thing yesterday. I aim to finish it up and get eyes on it today or tomorrow. Fingers crossed I can actually do that.

Meanwhile, I have a story to work on, comics to sort through and catalogue, and eventually books to redistribute into alternate areas than Draft2Digital. Plus a cover to draw.

Thursday, Trivia Night

My lovelies are offski in Brizvegas, sledgehammering stuff and chucking it in the skip. There is no news on the appearance of the foretold van, but I am nevertheless on starter blocks about that if need so be.

I spent practically all of yesterday working on the Promptcast thing. There are now FIVE fucking WIPs directly related to the Promptcast's shenanigans.

Powers know when any of them are going to be firkin done, but they will reach that point eventually. Or a

Monday, Urgent Shopping Nonsense

We need kitty litter. There's other things on my list, but the litter is the most urgent of them all.

And I get to take Adorable's Mum [I think I'll go with AM for short henceforth] out on my circuit to see where I hunt out the bargains. Which promises to be a fun experience even if it will wipe me out by the time I'm done.

Today's story will be happening after my post-shopping nap, belike.

I can try to get

Wednesday, Physio, Day Off Prep, Etc

There will be no story tomorrow because I am taking a complete day off. No writing, only sloth.

I think I have earned some indulgence.

My vaguest PLNs for tomorrow include lots of gameplay, some slobbing about, and definitely some bad-for-me food.

Which I plan to acquire today.

Story shall be happening after I return from shopping and a nap. My PLN for now is to try to snag some editing for my Promptcast thing before I have to take off and

Monday, Time Windows

I want to co-ordinate a day off. This may mean going shopping after my shrink session today.

Because if I knew what the fam is doing on Tuesday, I could go shopping then, but I don't. And if I want fun cool lazytimes on Wednesday, I need to prepare.

Also plotting to begin refilling the freezer with good things. Vegetables. Treats. Maybe some meats.

I'll see what I can do for sausages since my lovelies appreciate the barbecue and the brazier at

Saturday, Streaming and Stuff

The Promptcast is about to launch Bookish Friday. I'll mod whilst I can, but there's no telling what may or may not pull me away.

Today's story will happen when it happens, of course.

And in BIG news, I have put in the last words to A Devil's Tale and am overdue a big rest. Or at least a breather from writing an entire novel... or six of them in one hit.

From January 22nd, 2022 to June 12, 2026. Four years

Thursday, Promptcast and Other PLNs

I launched today with the aim to get the Promptcast entry done. And that was about all I did until ten AM. And I have bread on, huzzah huzzah.

Good news: I got the Promptcast thing done and the editing is in progress.

Bad news: Everything you expect of me is therefore delayed.

I don't know when I'll be doing the audio recordings, but they're low priority. Higher priority is at least a couple of paragraphs in ADT.

Got to teach myself

Wednesday, Weekly Thing, Physio, and Patterns

I have Physio halfway through the day. I did have a 1AM activity period, so there's less work that needs must be done there at the minimum.

I'm going to make an attempt at the Promptcast thing in one day. Wish me the very best of luck.

...and yes, I am dawdling on photobashing the cover for Not With a Bang thank you for noticing.

I'll get to it.

I want to get to it.

It's just that it feels like a

Saturday, Some Shenanigans

Moderated for the Promptcast's author interviews, got half a chapter reviewed by Cryptid Roots in Twitch.

Allegedly settling down to get on with today's agenda. With the usual chatting with my peeps on Discord.

Tomorrow is Mother's Day, so I'm doing some stuff for MeMum and the resulting daily tale will be later than what passes for normal. If it's presented at all.

Travel and stuff tends to drain me, so we shall see what we shall see when the day happens.

Thursday, Just Breathe

The story for the Promptcast is almost done. It just needs the Izzy Pass and a little spit shine.

I have five chapters remaining to write for ADT and I'm roughly one quarter in on the next one. I am excited to get it all the way done. So my ankle-icing breaks are devoted to adding more to the next chapter.

I have a very few days' breathing space before next payday and can only hope that no more disasters come along
