I read and write LitRPG/Sci-Fi/Fantasy. My office mate is a bunny. Vulnerable to autocorrect. I don't trust DMs, so please don't send them trying to sell me something. https://linktr.ee/DavidJBushman

Good progress yesterday despite my evening getting away from me after dinner. Things are moving right along with TANK. I really need to get back to promotion, and I have some books that could use audio. I'm still kinda on bare bones in that regard.

Happy MAR10 Day!

Yesterday was a bit of a mixed bag. I got 50k and finished my current chapter. I could have hit some big numbers but after work I was wiped out. I ended up going to bed early. Not much to say beyond that. More writing later.

No big board update today. I took the weekend off to pay cards with friends and hang with my dogs since the rest of my family was out of town. I'll get back to the word mines today.

Yesterday should have been more productive than it was. When I woke up this morning I already had a feeling the day got away from me. I saw the number and thought "eh I'll take it." They can't all be Ws. That said progress is progress. More later.

Welp, we're still pushing forward through the week. Everyone is heading out of town this weekend so the dogs and I will have guests and games. The real news is the big board itself. After two months, it's on the wall once more! More writing later.

I typically do.

In fact when writing I typically need a few chapters to adjust to the new story.

Happy Hump Day!

It has definitely felt like an upward climb this week. I'm ready for the downhill portion. Words were good yesterday. TANK is marching right along. I really need to hang my big board again. I miss it being on the wall. More later.

Today's update isn't the most exciting. Some words were added, but I'm still very much in the grind of TANK. I have some other writer tasks that I should address, yet I'm content to just write for the time being. Thankfully, I'm not trying to have a job

Another Monday is upon us. Words were had over the weekend and I'm in the process of crossing some of my favorite authors off of the list.

I also have a story in this new anthology...

Friday Update

Internet came back up while I was at work yesterday. That was good because the day was a busy one. By the time I got home I was too tired to deal with it. Regardless, words were had the past two days. Now I'm preparing for the weekend.

No Update Today

Well, no big board at least... My Internet is down at the house, so updating TANK is difficult. I'm still working from my phone, yet there are things I can't do without my computer. Oh well. More later.

We're still in the middle of the grind. That seems appropriate on a Wednesday. Work is work and I'll get more words in at some point. TANK is creeping right along. I just need to work out the next bit that I'll be running into soon. More later.

That's something we've struggled with too.

I tell my kids that sometimes you can do everything right and things still go wrong. When it comes to driving if someone else is doing the wrong thing it can go poorly. It's not fair, but you gotta watch it for the ones doing it wrong.

Considering both of mine started driving alone in the past year, I might need the tips as well. πŸ˜‚

The big thing we are strict on is communication. "Call me when you get there." "Text me before you leave"

My wife also has Life 360 on both of the kids' phones.

No cell use in the car.
