Ensign’s Log, Entry 50: February Month Map – Final

Farewell, February, you were quite the productive month for me, despite being so short. I’ll be welcoming March in with a new month map sometime in the next few days, but today it’s time for a wrap-up of February’s month map. Let’s see how I did… I didn’t complete all …

Ensign’s Log, Entry 49: February Month Map Week 2.5 Update!

Yes, you didn’t read the title wrong… Because this post is late I’m calling it week 2.5 instead of week 2 (or week 3, which is still a few days from its end.) The good news is that I’ve made a LOT of progress since my last update! Upgrade: Only …

Ensign’s Log, Entry 45: January Month Map, No Update This Week

Yes, that post title is correct, there’s no Month Map update this week. Though I did manage a few things earlier this week, the majority of it was spent fighting off, and eventually succumbing to, a cold. Or flu. Some sort of bug, anyway, that left me with very little …

Ensign’s Log, Entry 44: January Month Map, Week One Update

It’s time for the first month map update of the year! Despite being sick the first few days of January (I’m still very tired), I did make some progress on both Upgrade and Skin as White as Snow. I’ve edited three chapters and two interludes (brief scenes set between certain …

Ensign’s Log, Entry 42: Goals for 2017

Any Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy fans reading this? If so, take a moment to celebrate with me the wonderful coincidence that this post is my 42nd entry in my Ensign’s Log. *ahem* Now that I’ve paid homage to one of the greatest science fiction novels of all time, the …
