No copies of my books have sold yet this year. In the past I've dreamt of hitting a best-seller list, but at this point I'll take a single sale here and there. I'm sure many of my fellow authors can relate.

A brisk 28F here in northern Nevada this morning, according to my cute little outdoor thermometer. Perfect weather to be curled up in the house writing. In fact, I'm hoping to finish this current draft of my WIP in the next couple days.

We got a light dusting of snow overnight so I’m happy to see birds taking advantage of the free breakfast buffet!

Christmas decor will be up for at least another week as I focus on finishing my WIP. I don’t really mind because my writing view is a cozy one.

Trying out the YouTube and TikTok livestreams ended up being a fun new adventure for our 44th New Year's Eve together. Our history as a couple is something we talked about in the YouTube recording, if you're interested in that kind of thing.
The Live YouTube event was a successful failure. But we accidently did a live TikTok, and that was a lot of fun. Jacci Turner showed up! No recording of that, darn it.
And in this week's podcast, we look back to 2025.

Though I'm tired from having stayed up too late, I plan to start 2026 as I mean to go on by doing at least some writing and editing today. Especially since I didn't finish the current draft of my WIP by midnight as I'd hoped. Anyone else at the keyboard? If so, I wish you well.

I'm not as far along in my WIP as I'd like to be, but I've made good progress. Tomorrow promises even more challenges as
@jthume.bsky.social and I will be both pre-recording a podcast and doing our first livestream. I don't think I'll finish this draft before the New Year but I'm not giving up!

Day two of my epic journey to complete my WIP by January 1, 2026. The finish line isn't yet in sight and my energy is flagging. My goal is to have a completed story so I'm not really tracking word count, though I'd love to finish at around 50k. Is it possible?

Made good progress on my WIP today, but didn't quite get as many words down as I would've liked before tiring out. I'm going to need to spit out a lot more words over the next couple days to finish this draft by my self-imposed deadline.

Now that we're in that liminal space between Christmas and the New Year, I've decided to use the lack of time sense to my advantage and finish my WIP. I would then start 2026 with two completed first drafts (books two and three of my "Restless Spirits" series)!
