PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING APRIL 27, 2024

 It's hard to believe as I write these words that April is almost over, let alone that we're just about through the
first quarter of 2024!

Where has the time gone?⌛

Granted, I lost all of January and most of February not having a working computer, but I muddled through the best I could with traditional pen and paper, which is how I've managed to be as far as I currently am on "Operation Colossus", my contribution to the forthcoming third volume in Robert J. Mendenhall's CODE NAME INTREPID CLASSIFIED anthology series.

The 7,000 word mark is in sight as I rush toward the story's climatic battle between Team Intrepid and The Sonderstaffel, a special division of the World War 2 era German military dedicated to scouring the globe to secure by any means necessary all possible weapons and devices of any nature to help Adolph Hitler realize his dream of a Third Reich that conquers and rules the world.

Considering that this is 2024, you kind of already know who won.

Yet how they achieved that victory is something you will just have to wait and find out when Volume 3 is released later this year.

Until then, I better get back to writing now.

Take care.

STAY SAFE! 😷

And I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING APRIL 27, 2019

"It's Deja Vu all over again!"

Yogi Berra.

The quote and posting the same image twice are quite appropriate.


After the aforementioned doctor's appointment (I'm as healthy as a 57 year old man with a heart condition can be), various errands, household chores (WHEN are they ever going to invent the self cleaning house?) and other stuff throughout the week, I unfortunately didn't get as much writing time as I hoped to.
It seemed like life threw everything at me but the kitchen sink, and thankfully that was bolted down to well too be used against me. 😉

Sure, I did get some writing time in, but when you're trying to create stories and build an audience, you want a whole lot more than a few minutes here and a few minutes there.

HOPEFULLY things will go better this week, for there is really nothing pending on my agenda except housework and a few errands towards the end of the week.

Now if only the Red Sox can improve their game...⚾

Take care and I'll see you around the Internet.
