It has been years now...years...since I missed making an LJ entry. At least a little something and a photo. But the last two days, I simply could not manage it.

Overcast. A high of 83F.

I wish I could say that today was as productive as yesterday. I managed to finish Ian Nathan's exhaustive account of the making of Peter Jackson's Middle-earth films, Anything You Can Imagine: Peter Jackson and the Making of Middle-earth. But I don't suppose that counts as work ( Read more... )

Sunny and not so hot today. Our high was 89F.

I was awake a little before 5 a.m., up and writing at 6 a.m. I'm trying to get the new piece started. I spent two hours writing and only managed ~500 words. I usually do ~1,100 words/hour. So, yeah, it was slow. We'll see how tomorrow goes, or if I'll have to consider other plans, like jumping straught ( Read more... )
