Last Week's Goals:

Not much. [Frown]

Yeah. [Smile]

BEYOND THE PROPHECY: Nothing for this week but just watch.
That's been fun. [Big Grin]

MAGIC'S WARRIOR (temporary working title of DUAL MAGICS Book 4): Take a short break from it.
Easy one. [Smile]

BECOME: TO CATCH THE LIGHTNING (formerly DREAMER'S ROSE): Work on this while I try to recharge my enthusiasm for WAR OF MAGIC with more enthusiasm.
Other things came up. Not much work got done on this. [Frown]

Update my blog twice a week.

Last Week's Goals:

See what happened.

Well, not a lot. I spent most of the week trying to learn enough about the Linux OS to use it in some sort of productive manner. Oh the joys and wonders of the CLI (Command Line Interface) [Mad]

So I didn't do much thinking about character, plot, or milieu for The gardener, but I did find my life's imitation of my art gave me a deeper insight into the psychology of the inhabitants of my future world; the reason why they act the way they act. And, I'm afraid that, gazing in my crystal ball, I can see that this banal, egotistical, and uber-narcissistic future society I have envisioned isn't all that far off. I'm just waiting until the technology is widely enough available and we can all wallow in a self-satisfied, immersive digital experience. Shiny! [Big Grin]

Next Week's Goals:

Pretty much wait and see. Oh, and start putting my race bike back together.

Phil.
