“Giggle”
Every time your smile
bursts into a little laugh
I can’t not laugh, too.

Friday Write-Day: NaNo Came and Went
Welp, November is over. National Novel Writing Month sped by me, but that’s been true of every month since my son was born.
I had a lofty goal of writing 20,000 words on Dad-Life Time, but NaNoWriMo goals are always lofty, right?
Anyway, it’s time I rethink how I approach my writing schedule and goals. Continue reading “Friday Write-Day: NaNo Came and Went”
The Juggernaut, Peter A. Dixon – Book Review
I’ve mentioned a few times that I joined Wattpad to see what stories I could dig up there. I just finished my first full book there:
The Juggernaut, by Peter A. Dixon. Overall, I enjoyed the story, but it left me wanting in some areas.

Having a son has taught me a lot. I’ve learned how to put a diaper on a baby tight enough that they don’t pee around it. I’ve learned the various phases of infant defecation. And I’ve learned that making my son smile for the first time—and I mean really smile, not a muscle reflex—is one of the most fulfilling moments of my life.
But I’ve also learned that being a dad is really just an endeavor in ego-feeding. Very caring, loving, and dare I say selfless ego-feeding. Continue reading “On being a Dad, and Also being Selfish”

Friday Write-Day: Movement
Happy Friday. Have a YouTube:
You’re welcome. It’s been quite some time since I’ve heard new Hozier music, but maybe it’s time for a sequel to my review of his first album. That was way back in December 2014… nearly four years ago!
Aaahh, memories. Onto the writing!
A Quarterly Sales Report, and Other Things I never Thought I’d Write
At some point during the pre-publishing process for my first novel, I said that I wanted to be relatively transparent about how well my books did.
Well, it’s been over three months since I published The Warden of Everfeld: Memento. I’ve already talked about how my PPC campaigns performed. Now, it’s time to have a quick look at how they and my other marketing efforts helped me actually sell books.
