JamTheCat: Ah, driving in New York...
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015/07/ah-driving-in-new-york.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Friday, July 31, 2015. Ah, driving in New York. Don't do it unless you have to. It's hell on earth. Literally. Especially during a Houston level rainstorm. I got drenched three times in four hours. Didn't get fully dry till I was in Parsippany, New Jersey en route home. That's only 28 miles down the 80 from NYC, but it took me two hours in traffic that would make LA proud. Writer and sel...

Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Thursday, August 6, 2015. Keeps promising to be enjoyable. But ti's only fun. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Buffalo, NY, United States. View my complete profile. Trying to work it differently. Again with the never make plans. Notes and noted notations. Ah, the daily grind. Shredded.and reacted to. To illustrate or not to illustrate. The last of OTs Chapter One. In DC but not.

JamTheCat: December 2014

Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Kick out the old; Ring in the new. Or something like that. I dunno. I'm not really feeling the end of the year or beginning of a new one, except I'll be cleaning my apartment and doing laundry, tomorrow, to have everything ready for the beginning of the new year. My exciting time today? Washing the tub. Coolness defines me. I did more work on OT. I'm thinkin...

JamTheCat: New opening for OT
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015/08/new-opening-for-ot.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Saturday, August 8, 2015. New opening for OT. I've redone the opening chapter and cut 18 pages. It gets going much faster. 8220;Jake, why do you stick with Tone? Jacob, why haven't you come? I need your help. 8221; She always calls me by my Persian name when she's leading up to something. I loaded some Aloo Matar into my mouth to give me a chance to think. 8221; Joking.but not. I gave he...

JamTheCat: June 2015
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Saturday, June 27, 2015. Here comes gay marriage.and divorce. I'm not a great believer in marriage - my parents had 9 between them - but I do believe in people being treated equally under the law. Now the Supremes have said that's the law of the land. Which is good. It destroys the premise of one of my stories, but I don't care. Thursday, June 25, 2015. Sunday, June 21, 2015. Is in a PDF...

JamTheCat: February 2015
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Saturday, February 28, 2015. An old fort long since abandoned. The coast just west of Cascais. An old fort in the town of Cascais. Municipal building of some kind. The Hudson River, frozen over except for one narrow ship channel. This is what I came back to. I got some details going on Carli's Kills. Flying back, I actually dozed on the plane and watched some old episodes of Friends.

JamTheCat: August 2015
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Monday, August 31, 2015. I'm definitely in Washington DC October 4-6. That kills my sort-of planned week in LA. Seattle's book fair is a few days later. Such is life in the big city. I sent another script off - Carli's Kills. You never know.and wouldn't it be kick-ass if it worked. Trying to work it differently. I've taken this coming week off. No salary during this time since I'm se...

JamTheCat: Almost home...
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015/08/almost-home.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. I'm in Jet Blue's JFK Terminal 5 waiting on a flight that's been delayed by an hour, so far. I've caught up on e-mails for work and had a decent meal; now it's time to read more of the feedback on OT. It's proving to be illuminating. I'm ordering one of his books once I get home. It'll be interesting to compare notes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Writer ...

JamTheCat: More of OT chapter 1...
http://jamthecat.blogspot.com/2015/08/more-of-ot-chapter-1.html
Contemplations and complaints on writing.and life. Derry, Northern Ireland. A book I'm working on is set in this town. Sunday, August 9, 2015. More of OT chapter 1. This continues from what I posted, yesterday. You will not believe what happened to me, last night. I drove down to Page’s convenience store for some milk, butter, eggs and bread, and was arrested. By a police officer in plain clothes. Who claims I asked him to have sex with me. Right there! In the parking lot! What a stupid thing to say.
