Everything’s gone to hell lately – my posting, my writing, and now, my office.
The new desk continues to be expansive and sparsely cluttered with only the essentials: speakers, satellite radio, lamp, and computer. The off-desk cups nicely corral my pens, pencils, markers and other need-handy tools. The rest of the material that used [...]

What Does Progress Look Like? I Forget.

Two Steps Forward, One Back?
I have space. I have a luxurious amount of space to the right and left, under the desk and above it. My feet rest comfortably on the floor. My shoulders do not hunch while I type. I have a full five feet to spread out, work with my computer and with [...]

59 Inches Or So
I’ve been obsessed with ergonomically improving my workspace at home. Not that I’m normally not fiddling with things, but after the last Hypergraphics meeting, where we changed venues and I sat at this desk, this table, this wonderful, perfectly-suited workspace, my obsession has manifested in me carting around a measuring tape between work and [...]

Shocking Truth
Fiction World Rocked as Woman Claims No Sexual Attraction to Neil Gaiman.
Hee!
Well, of course it’s clearly April Fools. (And it seemed a good time to test out the ‘Press This!’ feature for WordPress.)
Today is a day of futzing around. After getting next to nowhere yesterday, I sat down after dinner and mind-mapped my little heart [...]

What To Do? What To Do?
Very productive day this morning at work. I managed some 450 words on the latest short-short, getting about half-way through. I got into a good groove, easily making my words and leaving me peppy all day. I’ve just killed one of the characters and I’m about to make the bridge between the [...]

Welcome to the Jumble
We’ve got fun and games!
Just finished my words for the night and feeling pretty good about them. I can see the end of this short story in the next day or two and I’ve started pulling in secondary documents to help with the details for the second draft. The setting is a steampunk-ish [...]

Pissing and Moaning
I’ve been restless again, looking at my office, finding ways to procrastinate that involve shuffling around books, griping about my desk height in relation to my chair, eyeing the door hinges to see how easy they would be to remove, wishing for new shelves.
All that, and no writing being done.
Well, not entirely true. I have [...]

A clean, spartan work space.
As far as writing goes, that is as far as I’ve gone recently. A clean space. I’ve long fretted and fussed about my desk – how it doesn’t fit, how it’s too high, how it’s got too much junk on it, blah blah blah – to the point where I didn’t want to [...]

Freshly Squeeze Creativity
This is my first day heading into work on my own. I’ve decided to take the lazy way by taking the bus. If I time it right, I should still arrive a little early, enough to get a good seat and get myself set up for some creativity squeezed between inbound calls.
Grayson is [...]

Am I?
Very slowly adding some hand-written material into PageFour. Feeling terribly lazy about the whole thing.
Feeling like I don’t fit at my desk. There’s never a way to feel comfortable while I’m sitting here. The chair is too low, so my arms rest against the hard edge of the table. If [...]
