Alma-Con and My New Writing Regimen

He kinda looks like me…if I was skinnier than a bean pole. šŸ˜›
Just a quick blog today since Iā€™m busier than a workaholic. At least thatā€™s how it feels. But thatā€™s a story for another time.

First, I want to announce that I plan, schedule permitting, to attend Alma-Con in Alma, Michigan, February 5-7. My friend/co-author Eric Anderson will be running a table for his ministry Nerd Chapel in the vendorā€™s hall, where he will also be selling our devotional, 42: Discovering Faith Through Fandom. Iā€™ll be there helping him with his table and a worship service he plans to have that Sunday. Feel free to come see us.

Now on to the main thrust of this blog.

Iā€™ve been thinking a lot about how I need to manage my writing time better, especially when I keep getting projects thrown at me and/or I bite off more than I can chew. So, in light of this, I wanted to share with you what I think should be a reasonable amount of material you can expect from me. It may take me a bit of time to get used to this new schedule, so donā€™t expect me to get into the rhythm immediately. I also reserve the right to change my output at any time.

Regardless, here it is:

-one (maybe two) articles a week for Examiner.
-at least two articles a month for GigaGeek Magazine.
-one (maybe two) blogs a week on my website.
-one ā€œBut I Digressā€¦ā€ video a month (with intermittent ā€œDigressionā€ videos as they come to me).

These are the things I want to do with regularity. Iā€™m seeking other freelance opportunities while also writing books, among other things.

Did I mention Iā€™m crazy?
