Musings and meanderings on my writing process, progress and procrastination.
1. If I Can Write Today, There’s No Stopping Me


A little experiment today, boys and girls. Let’s observe how productive a writer can be while revising in a room that’s about 55 degrees. As long as we’re at it, let’s throw in several other variables:

*Four workers ripping apart about 2/3 of the roof just past the plastic partition.
*Two carpenters sawing and hammering.
*A classic rock station blaring so all can hear above the prying, hammering and sawing.
*The knowledge there are no bathroom facilities because I simply refuse to use their port-a-potty.
*Oh. And the scene I need to revise today? Crucial. Sets up everything that happens in the book.

And for your visual pleasure ...
