Words, words, words

Posting again from the iPod, and again I am unable to edit and upload text directly. It’s an issue with Safari and not WordPress, and I seem to recall a WordPress app in the store…

2400 and change today, with a 6 hour break in between. Did not really acomplish anything during that time besides laundry and a bit of media maintenance, but I’m very happy with how the words came out. This particular section is very clearly a novel, but that’s what it is supposed to be. Was hoping to bring the intro in as a saleable piece, but even though I can wrap this section tomorrow, what I’ll have is another submission piece.

Also ok by me.

Tomorrow I may return to the detective story, (also a novel starter), but it would be nice to push through into some action. By the end of the week I think I’ll be ready to get into some of the concept pieces in the brown notebook.

Moving from Day 3 to Day 1, it was easier than I thought to slip back into a regulated diet. Shopped a few days out, resisted temptation, and although this morning’s 220lb weigh in was distressing in the extreme, it’s an excellent motivator. Also, a week of steak and ice cream has expected and quantifyable results.

Namely, a return to the month of September, 2006. I’m happy I gave away those suits, and even happier to know that in a month I won’t have to wish I had them back.

But enough about me…

Hollywood was good, as was the Viennese waltz. Hip hop 2 really came together, but so far the dancing has been “eh.”

More to come.

Quick up to the date

Still settling back in to my own life after many days as a guest and tourist, but there’s always time to write.

Right?

This weekend, in the midst of networking, eating, drinking, and general lookyloo-ing, I indeed found time to do so. On Saturday, I hammered through a new piece of short fiction, which should begin circulating this month. And Sunday was the first of November, and it was time to write.

Again.

Day 1 saw 3700 words in several sessions , and day 2 saw 2700 in one.

Tomorrow is Day 3, and also Day 1, as such things are numbered on the other schedule I need to get back to, the losing of weight. This year has been especially hard, with the lack of permanent employment, the bread addiction, and the overall meh. Writing has been a lot easier than reducing, but both need to happen this month.

So it will.

That’s all for now, as yet another schedule needs maintenance, that which controls my sleep.

Wish me luck.
