Totalling up all the various projects I’m working on right now, including this blog and my weekly video, I’m having to spend at least three or four hours a day writing just to stay on top of everything. It feels really good to be so productive, but it’ll feel better if I can ever manage to turn any of it into a real source of revenue.
It’s wreaked havoc on my sleep schedule, though. I just naturally work better at night, and once I get started on something I tend to work single-mindedly on it for hours. The result is I’ll sit down at 9pm to do some writing and, before I know it, it’s 4am and I’ve had six cans of Pepsi. Then I sleep till noon the next day and do it all over again.
The really insane thing is that exactly none of what I’m working on is fiction. I always just figured that if I were to ever make writing a major part of my daily routine it’d be because I was working on a novel or something, you know? Maybe I’ll see about working something like that in.

Keep writing!
So what are you working on? Or can you not say?
Well it’s not like I’m locked up behind NDAs or anything, but right now I don’t really know what’s going to stick and what’s going to fall through. It’s keeping me busy though!
I think it’d be pretty neat if you had a fiction entry once every week or something.
