Writing Journal 1 October 2025: …just ugh

This is going to be really short since I’m not really up for trying to justify my unwillingness to type words when I know which words I want to type.

Here’s the stats for last week:

It is what it bloody is. Time to get writing. Time to stop distracting myself. Time to stop making excuses.

When I wasn’t puttering along on blogs, I spent much of the rest week going between my sequel to my debut novel, The Holy Fool (Currently called The Fool 2), and the next book in the The Yank Striker series. I also did some considerable planning on a sci-fi horror project in a town something like what I grew up in and felt like I made good progress there, anyway.

That’s it. Take care, everyone.
