Writing stats for Oct 22, 2026 Back writing after a five day break. I don't necessarily feel refreshed or more creative. I'm actually very happy to be back in the habit :)

Writing stats for Oct 23, 2026 Nearly skipped today, wouldn't have done anything better with my time than doom scrolling, so I opted to write for FIFTEEN minutes and do a little revising. Happy with the outcome :) I think we're coming up on the final chapter!

Writing stats for Oct 16, 2026 Feeling like I'm coming to a natural end to the story now, getting close to the end of the first draft!

I love that this exists for the Angular community!

#GoodMorningWithMark 52 - Winning Record I can get so wrapped up in things being perfect. It took so long for this video to come out because I kept waiting for the perfect time to share my thoughts. That's not the best option—check this video out.

A 16-year-old forced his way into an Oregon elementary school on Thursday, killing three children and a teacher before an armed bystander pursued him inside and shot him dead, the police said. A 7-year-old and another teacher were critically injured. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/10...

Writing stats for Oct 7, 2026 Today was a little higher than yesterday but it's more about writing every day than how much I write.

I have a writer friend who says he aims for 1000 words per day. That's so much lol **slowly walks back to my keyboard to drop these lil' 200 words**

I cannot wait to get the heir in the room to see this film! I've been telling him stories of how I grew up on this game and he is so fascinated by it. Going to be really special for us.

An oversized gaming console was set up for the ‘STREET FIGHTER’ movie in Times Square that featured actual performers fighting.

In true Mark fashion, I have been writing a short story since this post, I'm about 4500 pages written. It started as a script/screenplay and now I'm just writing it as a short story that may turn into a script again in the future. But the key point is just writing and writing and writing.

Lately the bee in my bonnet has been a desire to write and direct.

Gah, I feel like every time I make good feedback on my achilles injury, I move the wrong way and worsen it. Last week I couldn't even stand in a walking boot. This week, though, I'm a little better but not better enough!

My friend released his latest game on Steam today! Roguelike pinball. What’s not to love?! To celebrate, I’m giving away five free copies. If you’re a mutual and interested in playing, either reply on the thread, or shoot me a DM

And we are LIVE! Cult of PiN v1.0.0 is officially out now on Steam and @itch.io ! After 2 years, my weird roguelike pinball project is now available to buy - with a 15% discount ;) store.steampowered.com/app/3144340/Cult_of_PiN/ #indiedev #gamedev #pinball #roguelike

Can't lie - this is inspirational.

ran out of max credits on both Sol and Fable trying to grind a mathematical theorem and get some novel results conclusions so far (thread):

And I sorta, kinda, definitely fell into the hype cycle and purchased a FX5. My FX3 will finally leave the studio and be used more on the go for all sorts of filming action.

Mark where have you been?? Well, I deleted social media from my phone and have mostly been posting from the web browser. What have been doing?? Working feverishly and playing a lot of guitar lol

Another Capital P practice session. I'm coming out the other side of the mud, as it were, and I'm starting to feel motivated again. I can now shoot some videos again.

I tried practicing quietly this morning in the bedroom while the CF was asleep, but she said it woke her up. I'm going to have to go into the closet!

Time for some capital P practice! This means really digging deep on fretting hand hygiene. I keep meaning to make a video showing y'all my progress, but I keep forgetting

Just finished a laaaaaate practice session. My fretting hand will be beat into submission. Getting in reps only means that in a few weeks these difficult things will be much easier
