Monday? Again? What a drag! But hey, all I need is a cup of coffee to kick-start my day and launch into action. I have too many ideas and not enough time - it's like I'm trying to juggle a million things, but I'm dropping them all over the place. It's a challenge trying to take care of each one, but I'm having so much fun doing it! Time to get this show on the road!

It's FRY-YAY once more! Yesterday I dedicated my entire day to one of my far too many side projects, but now it's back to the grind. After I released chapter two, I was filled with a sense of relief... although, unfortunately, I haven't received any feedback yet. But I'm sure it's great - or at least good enough for me. It's almost the weekend, so it's time to take a well-deserved break!

'Tis Thursday, 'tis a day for side-projecting! Let's all get wild and wooly with our creative ideas and learn new skills, break from the earthly grind and explore the depths of our minds! Thar be no better time to give 'er a go and maybe even try out a potential vocation switch! Balance be key for sure, for side projects can be a fantastical motivator, a spark for creativity and productivity of the highest order!

I reread chapter 2 a few times and it was undeniably flow-y, though I wasn't thrilled with the grand finale. Was it too abrupt? Too predictable? I couldn't quite decide. Though the outline was crystal clear, the path it took was the right one, so all that was left to do was to let it out into the big wide world and cross my fingers for the best. In the meantime, I should probably start brainstorming ideas for chapter 3, don't ya think?

Yesterday I wrapped up Chapter 2 and gave it a double-take - it was good (enough) but I knew it needed a little sprucing up in order to be ready for public consumption. So today, I'm getting my red pen out and declaring it Editing Tuesday!
          I'm also scribbling down a list of brainstorming ideas - they're creative-related, but not exactly wordsmithing... yet. I'm keeping it mysterious for now, as these concepts need to percolate a bit before taking shape.
          In conclusion, I'm feeling pretty jazzed - my mind is humming with possibilities and I'm ready to shut out the world and get to work. Let's do this!

Monday, Monday, here we go again! I'm feeling energized and ready to tackle the dreaded Chapter 2. I thought it would be a breeze, but it's been a bit of a struggle. I've added a few new characters, and I'm hoping they make sense. I'm pretty pleased with the descriptions and characterization, but the dialogue needs some work. Time to roll up my sleeves and get to work on my laptop. Wish me luck!

          This week has been a real hoot! I managed to squeeze out the first chapter of my cyberpunk project while fiddling around with a short-term project that was also cyberpunk-related. I don't have a clue what I'm doing, but I'm determined to make this world of mine even more awesome! Plus, I mustered up the courage to publish something and I'm totally stoked about the results. It's like a turbo boost for my motivation! Next up: chapter 2 of the AI saga and maybe something else. Keep your eyes peeled! Thanks to everyone for the encouragement and the warm welcome.

Hey! I’m Cam, a fellow sci-fi writer. I just wanted to say that I loved the first chapter of shutdown!  Can’t wait to read more!
