That&#8217;s right, I&#8217;ll be right down the street from the Cowboy&#8217;s Stadium and just a few minutes away from my kiddo. Other personal things of note: I&#8217;ve been following a high raw diet and losing a few pounds and feeling great. Additionally, I&#8217;ve started [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[It should be noted that most of this is derived from work done by Michael Hauge's Screenwriting for Hollywood]. The character types and goals are his, the patterns are something I derived. The patterns are flexible and shouldn&#8217;t be considered an exhaustive resource. The following are the most common external goals: EG.A) Hero’s goal is [...]]]></description>

Its purpose is to help me make sure I&#8217;ve covered all the things I feel are important to get a complete story covered. This is a little too verbose for something like a short story, but would be ideal for a shorter novel or [...]]]></description>

I should be getting ready to go to the day job where I’m fighting with my antique operating system to load a stupid service pack so I can get magic application development. What have I been doing with myself lately? Well, the novel was fail. Total fail. Why didn’t I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m excited about this weekend. I&#8217;m spending it in the company of best-selling author David Farland. I&#8217;m attending one of his workshops. This one is called “Write that Novel!” which seems pretty much perfect for me. I have totally stalled on War Dogs of Mars&#8217; progress. This looks like a comprehensive course. I&#8217;m going in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night I spent the evening completing a short story that has turned into a novelette. I know I’ll have a problem marketing a novelette. I don’t believe I’ll need to redraft this story, but I might need to go through and attempt some serious cuts. However, even if I cut 10-20% of the story, [...]]]></description>

However, I seemed to halt all progress on the novel at that time. I think that’s partially because I’m reading Dara Marks’ book [...]]]></description>

My weekends with my daughter tend to be all about my daughter and I clear the headspace of anything unrelated to our activities together. So if there’s any progress on the novel it’s minimal.
