I’m not sure where the time goes anymore. Is this a side effect of getting older?
The rest of my night will be spent searching the internet for schematics to a Time Machine that I can construct in my garage.
A few months back I mentioned plans for another book to follow 2009′s Musings on Minutiae. New material has slowly been making it’s way from my brain to the computer screen, so here’s the latest update:
May Word Count: 17,800
Current Word Count as of July 1st: 20,100
Difference: 2,300
Final Goal: 60,000
Words Remaining: 39,900
In addition to being a guest on several book-related podcasts and spending a ton of time in May and June working on music for my band’s new album, I also got some reading in:
Books Read in May & June:
- Writer’s Market Guide to Getting Published (Edited) by Writer’s Digest Books
- A Writer’s Space by Eric Maisel
- Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey
- The Well-Fed Self-Publisher by Peter Bowerman
- Humor Me: An Anthology of Funny Contemporary Writing (Edited) by Ian Frazier
- On Writing by Stephen King
- The Well-Fed Writer by Peter Bowerman

You can read my reviews of these titles at Goodreads.com.
Remember, Musings on Minutiae is still available for your Kindle for just $0.99!

While eating dinner at a nice restaurant on Sunday evening, it was obvious by the discussion about preferred methods of mouth hygiene that the couple at the next table were on their first date.
A Memorial Day picnic on Monday taught me that there’s nothing in the world quite as anticlimactic as a well-thrown water balloon that doesn’t explode on impact.
After dessert on Tuesday evening, I realized that I only scream for ice cream because I’m lactose intolerant.
While driving to work on Wednesday, I saw the Jiffy Lube sign advertising that it was Ladies Night and oil changes were half price. This only backed my theory that it’s always Ladies Night somewhere.
On Thursday I had planned to make all of my decisions over a 24 hour period with the assistance of a Magic 8 Ball. When queried as to whether or not this was a good idea, the Magic 8 Ball answered honestly with, “Outlook not so good.”
I had a lazy Friday and spent some time in front of the television. All I could think about was that there should be a TV show about a midget who manages rap artists. They could call it “Micro-Management.”
Still on a reality TV kick, Saturday afternoon had me thinking that it might be fun to see a TV show about a guy in prison. It would detail his attempt to survive amongst murderers and other felons. His crime? Illegally copying a DVD.
