Sometimes I feel like rambling out into the void at no one in particular. That’s where this blog comes in.

Just some updates on my fiction writing “adventures”.

Writing pace and schedule

My writing pace and schedule have not been very reliable since I started. I went through several months of failed draft attempts, in which nothing got published. What finally kicked me into gear was a story I committed to for an anthology. I drafted that story almost entirely on my AlphaSmart Neo last year, while visiting Glastonbury Tor. I wrote from the hill and it really got my creative juices flowing again.

This is just a short post about how I chose to implement multiple choice selection in Go with the promptui CLI library.

As I reflect on the last year, I think a lot about work. Heck, I always think a lot about work.

It was 3am and I was awake, thinking about the pile of leaves in the backyard again. These leaves had been there for two weeks, in a wheelbarrow. There was no composting/recycling place for green waste within walking distance so we’d need to hire a rental car to drive them somewhere where you could drop them off. And during the day, we just never got to it.
