#projectIDGAF
Was so busy cramming on #projectIDGAF that I didn't reconcile February's credit card statement.

Did February's and March's today.

I should have done it in February, because dang, that job suuucks.

Just got word back from my first alpha reader on #projectIDGAF.

Despite the weird POV shifts I pull, and the bizarre techniques I used, the book works and is enjoyable.

So much for THIS attempt to crash and burn... 😞

#projectIDGAF IS DONE.

Well, okay, just a first draft, but still.

My notes say that I started writing this on 23 August 2024. How the hell can I spend 213 days #writing a 58k-word novel?

Oh. Right. Covid brain. Never mind. #writing

Pushing to finish #projectIDGAF today, but sooo tired...

"We endure a world dominated by barbaric monsters, like aging and bacteria and billionaires."

2500 words on #projectIDGAF tonight. Seriously hoping to finish tomorrow, although the ending is receding like Xeno designed the damn thing. #writing

2000 words on #projectIDGAF tonight, and I loathe every one of them. #writing

Some nights are like that.

Today's plan: laundry, Looney Runes, and finish #projectIDGAF

So I better go offline and get to work. Do save the world while I'm out, if you'd be so kind?

Poor sleep last night, so only 3k words today on #projectIDGAF.

But at least I got to the vicious unprovoked beating, so that's a plus! #writing

1500 words on #projectIDGAF in two hours. Break's over, laundry swapped, time for another run at it. #writing

Looking back from today, medical care in 1989 seems like one step up from leeches.

Also, this book needs a bigger pyrotechnics budget.
February 21, 2025 at 7:06 PM
okay, that's the social media break over. Time to get back to #writing.

I finished "White Russian," now on to "Swallow It." #projectIDGAF

Tomorrow's #60SecondsOfWIP is recorded: "Parentally Mandated Assholes" from #projectIDGAF.

Yes, I got it done early. I am all over things! Mostly because I have an 11AM meeting, and don't want to get myself in flow state only to interrupt it.

oh, wow. #projectIDGAF has a Richard Tucholka nod?

I have hit peak cult 80s.

(Not an insult. I am peak cult 20s.)

Going offline to make some #projectIDGAF

I recently stumbled across a discussion on the importance of opening lines, and it's infected my critical voice.

Today: grinding on #n4sa2e, a bit of #projectIDGAF.

TCP/IP is where the #sysadmin meets the network team. That's why I'm writing the new edition of "Networking for System Administrators." I would appreciate your support.

Finished the "Iceolate" chapter, on to "Starfish and Coffee." #projectIDGAF

Yes, the book has a bipolar soundtrack.

1700 words on #projectIDGAF in 3 hours. A chapter that the story needs but leaves me feeling like a creepy old guy.

Now to make some #n4sa2e.

A few hours on #projectIDGAF today.

Dating is a hot mess today... but daaamn, it was worse in the 80s.
