729 Words [The Calories in a Totino's Pizza]

Totino's Pepperoni Pizza is my FAVORITE frozen pizza. It contains exactly 729 calories in one box. And this is how many words [exactly] that I wrote this morning. I wrote a pizza worth today. ;-)

I will say, writing today was difficult. I struggled to get the words down and the story seems to be floundering under a lot of self-doubt and negative personal criticism. Just a part of the territory, I suppose. When in doubt, I just have to keep writing. Pizza helps. Especially Totino's.

On a brighter side of things, I added a few more things to the blog, and I think [maybe] I will be getting a top level domain soon and have a static website, along with my blog here. I know Amanda Hocking does not have a static site [yet]. I'm sure the good people at St. Martin's Press will be putting one up for her soon. So, it is probably better to say, Amanda Hocking became a successful Indie writer without a top level domain. I just can't stand the cost, even if it is only $10. And I can even get it for a few dollars the first year and I'm still struggling to get it. I think the biggest resistance is - I worry that I'm going to wake up tomorrow and quit writing again. Then I'll have wasted that money on a domain that I'll just let lapse again. I've done it before. www.stevenveach.com is available again. It used to be owned by a Steven who is an artist. Apparently he doesn't keep domains alive either.

Anyway, I figured you would like my pizza word mash this morning. It's making me hungry. And I even have Totino's Pizza in the freezer! Yum!

1130+ Words - Good Pizza - Truck Shopping

I was able to jump back into it this morning and knocked out 1100 + words on SEEKING LIGHT AURORA. Also did some editing on THE PREPARATION, but that was where my regular schedule pretty much ended. I got three or four tasks finished on my tasks list - just random stuff. Created a MySpace page and got it started. Need to read the article now to find out how to tweak it for authors. Also found out that I can never get back my youtube account with the stevenveach domain on it. It is permanently locked into the old email account [changed the password one day and now can't remember it]. No biggy.

Had pizza for dinner from Papa Murphy's. That place has the best pizza! And so greasy. Yum! Also talked with family today about a truck. I'm shopping for a truck that I will buy in 9.2 years - one that has the extended cab, but one that is wide enough that I can lay down in the back seat comfortably. This would serve as my home unless or until I decided to move up into a cabover camper. I wouldn't do this unless the seat turned out to not be big enough or I decided to firewatch. Several years ago I had a pickup truck and put a canopy shell on the back of it, then outfitted it to live in. Loved that truck.

Not much else to talk about - oh, I thought of a name for the new story that popped into my head the other day while I was working - I think I will call it OBLIVION ENCHAINED.
