Notes By Hand - Feb 20

Be curious... read a little.

Ya, I write a lot of these things by hand.

Particularly when I’m stuck. And I have been stuck. On my books. On my bony little ass. Like a stick in the mud.

But I’m learning to give myself grace.

I make progress every single day on the health front. However, the writing hasn’t been robust as I’d like. I’m tumbing around the ideas for Grigsby, Mac - even Kwynn - but pushing each forward a little leaves few measurable pages for you to read.

I did write a great scene with Grigsby but I don’t think it will make the cut. Maybe I’ll spruce it up and release it for you. In the meantime, I’ll link a little baseball story I wrote a bit ago.

Also, figured I’d share some of what I’ve been putting in my head. It’s both research and fun. If you’re looking for ideas, maybe try one.

Feel free to reach out - It’s grand to hear from readers. It’s proof you aren’t figments of my imagination.

For me, the boulder didn’t start rolling in The Hunter until the mid-point but once it starts, you are in for a ride.

Written under a pseudonym, Five Decembers does some amazing second act wizardry. A great book.

I was curious about the book that started it all for Lehane and A Drink Before The War does not disappoint.
