In which I briefly reflect on the year, shake my head at how awful its been – globally – and discuss briefly how I need to get some paying work in in 2017.
In which Dave reflects about his first game and talks about all the things he has going on.
In which Dave tries to express his sympathy to his American friends, but hopes people will take action.
In which I talk about writing short stories, on initiative, on the book and talk affectionately about my keyboard.
I hope everyone had a wonderful (Canadian) Thanksgiving. Besides enjoying turkey, pumpkin pie and the vegetables my wife grew (seen above), my family and I enjoyed watching my Toronto Blue …

The kids went to camp this week and I’m going to spend half of this week getting the Novel timeline done now that the pre-novel timeline is done. My plan …
I’ve gone down that rabbit hole of spending far too much time in the software and not enough time actually doing work, and so my 30 day trial is done …
I’ve been doing some work on the second edit of the book. As I mentioned before I’m focusing on working out the timeline and I’ve been doing this with the …
Last week I finished the short story. The Wife loved it, which I was nervous about, and overall I’m quite pleased with it, delving into a time period that is …
So I have elected to work on that short story based on that dream. And I guess I should preempt the following entry with a note that I have a …
Well I managed to play 7 days of Stardew Valley. I don’t want to get into a long thing about it here, but I am thoroughly impressed that this was …
I just finished my first draft. Wrote the last words, tied like a ribbon on something I’ve been carrying with me for 8 years – and when I think of …
