PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 21, 2024

 So, how much "progress" did I manage last week?

TWO WHOLE PAGES PROOFREAD ON SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA!😲

That's it. Period. Maybe my theory is correct about the end of the year not being a good time to attempt accomplishing anything creatively.

But, depending upon how you celebrate, the "Big Event" is coming up so...





Take care.
STAY SAFE!
And I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 23, 2023

I received a fantastic, early Christmas gift this week but while I can share the news with everybody, I have to wait until after the contract is signed to do so.


It has unfortunately been slow going this past week writing wise versus trying to get everything ready for Christmas, but I have managed to break the 51,000+ word count on SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA, although I'm still on Chapter 30 at the moment.
Hopefully after the first of the year I'll be able to concentrate on my writing more.
Especially after I share my good news with you next weekend.
Until then, take care.
STAY SAFE! 😷
And

DECEMBER 25, 2016

Normally on a Sunday, you'd be expecting to find a Progress Report in regards to my writing efforts for the past week here. But since it is a major holiday, let me just say...

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 19, 2015

Well folks, it's my sad duty to report that unfortunately, there was no writing progress this past week, for I've been fighting a bad cold!

Now normally, like my recent battles with the stomach crud, I try to keep on writing as much as humanly possible.

Unfortunately, it just isn't possible with a cold in my situation.
Over the course of my life thus far, I have survived TWO bouts of pneumonia, congestive heart failure, AND an aortic aneurysm!
The above has unfortunately taken its toll on my overall health, but I'm still here.
Yet whenever I do get a cold nowadays, there isn't much medicinally I can take without risking something else, and it's bothersome (at best) to wear my reading glasses because of the extra sinus pressure their weight creates on
my nose.

Therefore, I just have to grin and bear everything the best I can, so
unfortunately, there was no writing progress on the final chapter of PROJECT ALPHA, BOOK 2: WAYWARD SON this past week.
Yes, that first word is back, because the publisher (Tommy Hancock at Pro Se Press considers PROJECT ALPHA the overall series title, while I just thought of it as the title of Book 1.

Anyway, I CAN tell you that I received an e-mail from Pro Se, which included a pencil sketch of the cover for Book 2, and it looks promising!

Not sure how this coming week looks yet. Still have to wrap gifts and am looking forward to spending the holiday with my family and friends.
But I'm not that far away from concluding the last chapter, so who knows?

See you around the Internet!
