Weekly Update - Happy Thanksgiving

It’s a holiday week in the US, which means all 6 kids are home.


I’m off and on - (mainly off this week), as we do the holiday stuff.

Going to try and drop some beta chapters of the rewrite of my daughters story (The girl who killed a god). Getting a little more time with her and so wanting to make sure its as good as possible.


Goal is to write better. One of the hardest lessons I am learning is changing how I fhink while writing as well as the editing side when going back.


Last year I blazed forward, all gas, no brakes. While putting out 2 million words from june 23 to aug 24 was great in some ways, I see now the importance of slowing down and editing.


Looking back, I see many of the problems with lots of things I wrote (maturity/learning/etc). Reading and listening to other stories I think are well done as I try to hone this craft.


Thanks as always for supporting me and enjoy your thanksgiving!

Thank YOU Shawn! You’ve come as far in this past year as your Characters, bigger better faster stronger (play 6 million dollar man theme in ur head to accompany these kudos please). Slowing down some is a good idea tho. Brutal pace even with electronic assist, not sustainable imo. Enjoy 🍗turkey-time🦃 with your kiddos!😋 Cheers
