Man…I’m taking a beating already! More than a few people (ahem!) said my desk was too neat n’ tidy and therefore they didn’t feel up to posting their nerderies for the world to see.

I cry FOUL!

Here’s the thing…I sort of have to have some order to my chaos otherwise I can’t get a lick of work done. On …

Here, if you will, is a shot where …

Red Lining Done!

In a bit or irony, I’ve finished red-lining GOODHALO. Sort of fitting on Valentine’s Day, eh? You know with the red and the zombies and the…

Nevermind.

Anyway. It’s a big step toward being closer to getting this puppy ready for ‘prime time.’ As quick as I am with other parts of this process, technical editing is always (for me) …

Happy Birthday Travis!


It absolutely FLOORS me that my little guy is 3 years old today. I swear, Laura and I were just getting used to feeding him, waking up at all hours of the night and wondering if we were in over our heads. Now, I can’t even imagine what it’d be like if this little fella wasn’t a part, if not…

Hello friends of blog-reading!

Sometimes an idea strikes you and you have no choice but to pull off the side of the road, hop out of the car and shout to the heavens:

“BY JOVE! THAT IS BRILLIANT!”

Sometimes the ideas aren’t that great and you kind of shrug a little bit and say ‘eh’ while you make a left …

It’s My Lucky Week!

Hi everybody.

Well, this is going to be short because I just realized I’m going to be very busy this week. Very busy SPENDING MONEY.

Also, I’m going to be quitting the writing thing as of today. Yeah. It was a pipe dream and kind of a waste of time if you ask me. Really, who wants to read books …

Shorty

Favorite Travis quote of late:

Me: Travis, we need you to take some of this cough medicine. C’mon, now.

Travis: No. Not the red stuff!

Me: Why not?

Travis: The red stuff makes me feel silly.

End Scene…

Everything’s Comin’ Up Zombies

Today feels like a zombie-kind-of-day, friends.

How so, TKT?
I’m going to break it down for you.
  • I feel like a zombie today. Since I’ve got a 2 (almost 3!) year old who comes in contact with a handful of other kids on a daily basis, he picks up all sorts of fun germs/colds/etc. I got his cold and it
