I tried to start working on one of my projects today, and I eventually just scrapped the “chapter” I worked on. It’s the first draft, and I know a common piece of advice is to just write it down (and I don’t necessarily disagree with it, either), but I wasn’t feeling it. I hadn’t worked on it in for about a week or two, which likely didn’t help.

Sanrio is willing to collaborate with anyone as long as they think they can make money from it. Cuteness is indeed powerful.

I made a video of just me editing one of my own writing advice articles.
It kind of helped to talk out loud while editing it

Trying to set up that nifty Goodreads author account…why do they make it difficult…no, I know why, but it’s just so tedious and so many steps…ugh, Amazon.

I can’t believe it was 2014. Has it been 10 years already?

Why do I spend more time internet browsing plotting or experimenting with my main and support characters’ background stories than plotting or drafting the actual story?
Exhibit A.
In Dov’s background, he now spent most of his High School years studying ballet only because his youngest sister, Ivy, loved ballet and stage performances, and she wanted a strong, gentle and trustworthy partner for her own dance practice…The open family secret that Ivy was infatuated with Dov, and that Julie (Ivy’s best friend and fellow Dov fan-girl) shared / encouraged Ivy’s desire to see Dov prancing around in tights, didn’t influence her request at all…After Beth (Ivy’s older twin) bribed the reluctant Dov with her share of Dov’s favourite dessert, almond chocolate cake with garden strawberries and homemade (farm) cream, Dov agreed to study ballet and become Ivy’s dance partner. Julie also enrolled with Ivy just to get a front-row seat to her friends’ training, and because she didn’t want Ivy to have all the fun.
Dov predictably received all manner of bullying and mockery at their high school for his unusual choice. Yet none of the teasing bothered Dov. The blisters were far more annoying, especially during the weekend cattle musters, and all the hassles were a bargain price to see Ivy smiling and happy, and sometimes turn crimson with an equally flustered Julie. Anyway, Dov’s first batch of school performances silenced his critics. The girls decided Ivy and Julie’s motivations were justified (although the teachers’ rule of no flash photography was unjustified), and the boys decided that someone who had the wrist and shoulder strength balance Ivy and Julie on the palms of his outstretched arms was not someone they should provoke.
To ensure Dov’s detractors were thoroughly defeated, Dov joined the Australian Commandos (and represented the Army in AFL competitions) straight out of high school helped, in-part, by the high physical demands and conditioning of his ballet training…along with a childhood of cross-country horseback riding…Muscle balance, control / coordination, and endurance are sometimes more important than muscle strength.*
*A reason why Arnold practiced ballet while training for the muscle man competitions.

I was reading a book about cinema, and when I was reading the section where the writer was talking about the lead actor’s performance, my father was playing a DVD of a show he was on and I heard the actor’s voice.
