I keep forgetting to finish this entry. Let’s see if I can get it posted at last. TLY — The current tentative plan is to release this first book on my birthday, September 2. I don’t know how feasible this goal really is, but it won’t break my...

TLY — Last week I listened to the entire book again and made notes about stuff I wanted to do, which more than doubled the length of my checklist. Fortunately, most of the items were quick fixes, and I pretty well got them all done on Saturday. One item,...

TLY — First just to get it out of the way. I really have no updates; I’m still doing exactly the same thing I was last time. I keep adding items to the list, but it is gradually getting shorter. In fact there are only six items left on it, though they are...

This is more of an unproductivity log, because I have many more thoughts about the future than progresses to report. I have written nothing since the gall bladder stones appeared, and it’s possible that’s for the best — a little break between the sad...

Tattoo design — I don’t even remember when my co-worker requested this. It had to have been at least eight months before I finished it. It looks OK, but I don’t like how incohesive the color scheme is: it should have been more blue or purple overall....

TLY — Since reaching linear completion, I’ve written those two scenes I wanted to insert. The “goodbye” scene turned out to be less “goodbye” than I had anticipated, which I think is going to work. The characters aren’t at a...

Blood Contingency part 20 — I am not entirely satisfied with this part. I don’t know whether it was more having Christmas and New Year right in the middle of concocting it or issues inherent to the layout of the story (they definitely contributed; see...

The same thing that happened to my AEL’s happened to my PL’s on a smaller scale (i.e. tumblr ate my attention), so now it’s time to catch the fuck up once again. I can’t really truncate here, though, so this may get pretty lengthy… *...

TLY — I got some meta stuff done recently. Sister M promised years ago that she would draw my cover illustration, and when I asked her (since I’m on the home stretch finally) if she was still up for that, she said she would be happy to. So I’ve...

* Things Batman Doesn’t Like — One thing you notice when making a music video from western animation rather than anime is just how cheaply produced anime is. In some of my anime music videos, there have been sequences where little more on screen than a...

12 days ’til I turn 37!! I officially do Too Much Stuff. All these stories (priority #1, of course), and trying to log all the art I experience (essentially a religious thing), and then all these hobbies like drawing and making music videos and video games and...

To start out with, I’ve made some very good progress on TLY — I’ve finished two chapters, I believe, since I last mentioned it — but as usual have nothing in particular to say about it. I’m not going to talk about Dragon this time, but I...

OK, I have to talk about Dragon NaturallySpeaking a lot, because it’s going to be pretty important in my productivity process for quite some time, I believe. Though the previous intense flare-up of pain in my hands/wrists did die down eventually, in general the...

OK, to start out with, I’ve worked on both TLY and Forgivably Wrong, but have nothing to say about thems. And there was one day I was supposed to work on them and didn’t all that much, because I made the mistake of starting my day with editing. I know...

Blood Contingency part 15 — This part was tricky not just because of what I mentioned last time (wanting to do justice to our first good look at Sano as he is now), but because I was trying to have the dialogue refer to events that will subsequently be detailed...
