This week has been good on the book progress. I think I have one of the four chapters kinda finished which is very nice. I am now working on finishing the second chapter and it's going well, I have some really cool stuff I want to explore in the back half of that chapter. As the title shows, still making my way through Sacred Hunger. It's great, love that some of the terrible characters actually get some decent consequences so far. Really excited for the next part of this boo

This week has been good on the writing progress. I am making some good steady progress on Do You Still Love Her?. As the title shows, I am still working through Sacred Hunger. Man this is a fantastic book. Very well done. I am in the back half now, it's going in some neat areas. On the TV front I started watching a show called Mr. Inbetween. It's an Australian show and god is it good. Short sweet and good writing and action. Well that is it for this blog post. A shorter one.

This week has been great on the writing front. I have gotten back into my morning habit of writing everyday for the past week. It's good. Once I am in the habit I love it. With that the progress on Do You Still Love Her? is coming along really nicely. I know where I am at for the current chapter, which is nice because the book is only four chapters long. It's good, I am happy with the progress. On the reading front, from the title. I am going through Sacred Hunger by Barry Un

This week I managed to get back to writing, which feels great. I did not get as much written as I usually hope, but getting over that initial writer's block/slump is worth celebrating when it happens. On the reading front, I started Sacred Hunger by Barry Unsworth. So far it's great. I have never read anything by this guy, and so far it's all great. Very good setup so far, and very excited to see where it goes. On the TV side, I watched a limited series called The Offer. It i

Well I didn’t get any real writing down this week, I’ve had some writers block and some irl stuff this week but should hopefully get back to it next week. This week I read Operation Barracuda by David Michael's. It is a splinter cell story set in the Tom Clancy verse. I loved these books when I was younger and have been dying for the Splinter Cell IP to do something... So I read it again and it was a solid read but some parts have not aged well however they were few and easy

Well this week has been mostly getting back into the groove at home after camping. I have managed to get some decent words in on the new book but I am also at the dreaded half-two thirds part, I usually get a bit of writers block around this time but I can usually power through it. It's still coming along very nicely. As the title shows, I went through Requiem for a Nun by Faulkner and oh my that was a treat. In typical Faulkner fashion he plays with the format which when it

Well the camping vacation is a success as I ring in the last night. I also got some good writing done while out camping it’s been great aside from some hiccups. I finished Peter Clines Gods Junk Drawer. Man that was a fun as hell read. Dinosaurs aliens and everything else. Now I’m onto requiem for a nun by Faulkner and am very excited for it. On the tv front I watched some new episodes of the Batman animated season two that just came out and it’s super fun. If you like Amy ki

Well I have only managed to do a bit of writing this week as I had a cold that set me back. The good news is after work today I am going camping for a week so should get some decent writing in then. On the reading front I started Peter Clines God's Junk Drawer. It's really great so far, I really like this guys books as they are a good mix of a fun time with some stakes and he has a universe it connects too sometimes. Very good so far. On the TV front I have still been making

Made some alright progress on the novel this week. After some busy few weeks IRL I am starting to get back into my writing routine again, and it feels great. I finished the Border trilogy, and that was fantastic. I actually think the books get better in their own way as the trilogy goes. I found each of them able to stand on its own and also as a package. Great story. I now only have one Cormac McCarthy book left to read. I started watching the TV series Broadchurch, and man,

I managed to get some writing done this week but I am still not writing as much as I should and want to be. Hopefully now that work and a few other things have settled down I should be on easy street now. Still chugging through the Border Trilogy, still loving it. On the TV front I managed to sneak in The Agency season 2. Well I have two episodes left. It's great. Awesome spy craft show and absolutely great writing and acting. Well this is a short and sweet one today. Gonna t

This week has been busy on all fronts. I have made some good progress on the book this week. The chapter I am working on is coming along very well; I am really enjoying it. On the reading front, as the title shows, I started Cities of the Plain. So far it's great. I have also got my RV almost ready to go, so that means writing and reading adventures with Edward in the wilderness soon!! On the TV front, I watched the show The Man In The High Castle. Great alternative history s

This week has been very productive with everything but writing lol. I was off on day's off from work and bought an rv camper so I have been busy day and night getting that ready. The nice part is that, part of the reason for a rv camper is so I can go write in nature and peace and quiet so hopefully the ratio of the week will balance out with more writing soon. I actually have not watched to much TV or read anything this week, mostly just catching up on The Young and the Rest

This week has been good on the writing front. I have found a nice little grove for the part I’m working on and it’s good steady progress. As the title shows, I finished The Crossing. Man that was fantastic and I actually liked it better than the first one. The story of how it starts and ends is just a fantastic trip. I’m also really looking forward to diving into the third and last one Cities of the Plain. On the tv front I watched the new season of your friends and neighbour

This week has yielded some great progress on Do You Still Love Her?. I was having some struggles with one of the four chapters that it takes place in, and once I got a handle on that, it's starting to come along very nicely. The only shame is that work is getting in the way of doing more work on this manuscript and the editing on my other two. As the title shows, I am onto the second book in the Border Trilogy, The Crossing. So far it is fantastic, and I am liking it over All

Well, this week has been a good writing week. I have gotten a good thousand or so words in on Do You Still Love Her? It is still a very challenging piece to work on, but that is also why I love it. As the title quote shows, I finished All The Pretty Horses and am now starting The Crossing. All the Pretty Horses was a great read, and I am very curious how the trilogy plays out. I am very much enjoying going on John Grady's journey. It was a really good coming-of-age story. On

This week I got some writing on Do You Still Love Her? and it feels great. I am grabbing and pulling some neat threads on the story lately, and it's really fun and also intense to write. Good times. On the reading front, as the title shows. I started Cormac McCarthy's Border Trilogy. I am on part 3 of All the Pretty Horses, and it's great so far. I am really digging the ranch life aspect. On the TV front, I finished two series. The first was that Marshals Taylor Sheridan show

Well, I have not been able to get any writing done this week as my job and some other life stuff are sucking my bandwidth really lean. I did, however, do some light editing and research for Do You Still Love Her?. So I at least got that in. I am not sure if I am working again this weekend, but if not, I am hoping to get some writing sessions in over the weekend. As the title shows, I finished Animal Farm, and it was fantastic. Just a great fairy tale about Russian history, an

Well, this week has been a bit light on the writing as it's really busy with the day job, but I am still managing to make some nice progress on Do You Still Love Her? I am having a really chaotic and fun time writing this one. As the title shows, I started reading Animal Farm by George Orwell, and it's a fantastic little tale. Knowing the history that it's based on makes me chuckle at the book. It's fantastic. On the TV front, I watched a show called Memories of a Killer. It

On the writing front, I have been making some nice progress on Do you still love her?. It's an absolute beast to write. I am writing everything like totally out of order, and it's wild, but also insanely fun. On the reading front, as you might inquire from the title. I have put down Ulysses after like 350 pages. It just was not doing anything for me at this moment in my life. The first 150ish pages or so, I was trying to find something in it, and finding some stuff to chew on

This week has actually been really productive on the writing front despite being busy at my day job. I’m definitely at that exhausted but rewarded phase of the week. I finished that short I was working on. It’s called The Highway. It’s a nice like 2,300 short story that I’m really proud of as it’s the shortest I’ve written. I also submitted it to the RBC PEN Canada new voices competition which it has absolutely zero percent chance of winning but whatever 🤷‍♂️. If I feel chee
