Got some bad news at work. I didn’t get the transfer I needed. So I guess for now the 13 hour days will continue. Might be time to look for a new job. I can’t keep doing this. Pug face for luck.

While waiting for my Beta Readers to get back to me about my book I’ve actually put pen to paper (fingers to keyboard?) for my second book! You know I had to add in some “you can tell Curtis wrote this” moments…

Well I’ve finished the first edit of my book. 60,000+ words. And it has now been sent off to a few select people as Beta Readers. (Thanks yall!) While I wait is it normal to start plotting my next book? Cause I am. Pug face for attention.

Book update: I’ve finished my 1st editing pass thru act 2. The 3rd act is where I think it will need the most work. But I’m VERY excited about how well it’s shaping up! Feeling VERY positive! can’t wait to get it to you guys soon! … somehow. Pug face for luck. Yes that’s his chin on his back foot.

wolverine game pitch for 40somethings: it's just a konami beat em up. you just walk to the right stabbing fools. all main x men are playable. no real plot. takes 20 minutes to beat. costs a quarter to play.

Quick update on my book. I’ve spent the weekend doing a first edit on my book and I’ve gotten through the prologue and 8 chapters of my 28 chapter book. So I’m cruising. The remaining chapters are where things are going to need the most work tho. So time to buckle down! Pug face for luck.

I got 1150 words in today at lunch, but that’s not the best part. I’m officially over 40k words which means I am officially writing a NOVEL!!! I’m so excited to be deep in act 3. I’m doing it guys. And it feels awesome! #writer #novel

2,200 words today! The puggos are great editors. 😂 Finished Act 2. Decided to power through and keep going into Act 3. I feel like my upcoming vacation, (birthday week starts next Friday,) is going to be pretty interesting! #writer

I’m thinking I need to find a month to read like a 90’s dad. I’m thinking something by John Grisham, Tom Clancy, Stephen King, Michael Crichton. If you were or are currently a 90’s dad please let me know what you read. Im thinking Hunt for Red October The Green Mile A Time to Kill Eaters of the Dead
