[Kevin Lieber @kevinlieber]

Going back to the Dan Simmons well. Carrion Comfort. Vampire time.

Now reading A Canticle For Leibowitz. This is one of those books I kept seeing mentioned but knew nothing about. Time to find out.

[Kevin Lieber @kevinlieber]

I passed 90,000 words in the first draft of my book. I think I have about 25,000 to go.

[Kevin Lieber @kevinlieber]

It is a time for reading.

Next up is Dan Simmons' first book, Song of Kali.

[Sleep Warrior @sleepwarrior]

sometimes it takes all week to write something i'm happy with. feels good though when it happens.

[Sleep Warrior @sleepwarrior]

I'm over 88,000 words.

I originally hoped to have a first draft finished by the end of last year. Now I'm hoping to do so by the end of this year. My pace has slowed but I'm happy with what I have.

@NootiNoot02 @kevinlieber Yeah, there are plans to come back to making long videos. And I'm still doing new episodes of Mind Blow which you can watch here: https://t.co/AOwn3BOm6b

All of these books rule. The Terror adaptation on AMC was very cool although I did not like the nihilistic ending.

[Kevin Lieber @kevinlieber]

Two distinct times in my life I was drawn back into reading because of Dan Simmons. Once was because of Hyperion and the other was The Terror. Rest in peace and thank you.

This week I discussed my writing process for @sleepwarrior. If you're interested in writing a novel, this episode may be useful.

[Sleep Warrior @sleepwarrior]

i have learned that writing the first half of a novel is much easier than the second half. inventing puzzle pieces comes quicker than assembling them.

still, progress is being made.

[Kevin Lieber @kevinlieber]

It's time. The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. First book in The Stormlight Archives. Wish me luck.
