Making the Magic Happen

Avo & Me
Originally uploaded by MikeOliveri.

Friends & Family Day at the karate dojo went well today. Now we’ve got a quiet weekend evening with no real plans, giving me some much-needed time to play catchup and get some writing done.

That’s why I’m out front with an Avo #3 and the MacBook Pro. I’m looking at some sketches from an artist for one project and doing a quick bit of research for another. I’m catching up with a couple Twitter friends and doing some web maintenance. I’m grabbing the day’s pics off the camera and preparing them for upload.

Most important, I’m clearing away all distractions to get some writing done tonight. A good cigar centers me. When it’s finished, I’ll retire to the office, cue up a playlist of writing music, and start hammering on the keyboard.

Ten pages of script are due on the 30th. If I focus, I can get them done tonight.

Now if only I can narrow down the selection between these two possible villains for the book…

    You’re talking to the wrong guy. Yeah, I write horror, but I don’t buy into any of that stuff.
