Exciting Times

Hey everybody,

My new laptop came in this week. This is great news since I am now no longer constrained to library hours for writing time. As matter of fact, I might add another 1000 words to The Book of Earth tonight.

Also, my part-time jobs is starting to pay, and I got a refund check from my school. I've started building a nest egg for investing in my books.

Needless to say, I'm pretty pumped about my book's progress. I'm actually itching to write right now, so I'm going to do that. Expect my next blog post on Monday!

Happy Reading!

Requiem for Laptop

Yesterday, my laptop finally bit the dust. First, the tab key was broken off (that happened some time ago), then the DVD drive stopped working, and finally the screen stopped working.

I make a particular point about this laptop because it was my first one. I had this computer since I graduated from High School in 2008. This is also the laptop on which I wrote The Book of Fire and Epic Sofa D, along with the majority of The Book of Earth.

I keep my novels saved on a flash drive and I also back them up to Google Docs multiple times during the writing process. As far as a new computer, my mom already has that taken care of. She's calling it an early graduation gift, one that is very much needed and greatly appreciated.

Needless to say, production may be delayed once again, looking this time to the end of the month instead of the middle as expected. I do plan on meeting my word count goal soon.

Happy Reading!
