Photos

This will remain a sticking point for me until I can get back out there at least once a week. This once a month stuff and paying for it for several days after sucks largely.

In the meantime I’m curating and reprocessing my old photos trying desperately to be uber-picky and then starting each one from scratch as if I never saw them before. It’s an interesting process, especially when I remember using them as “besties”. Then I look at what I did then compared to what I just did.

When the dogs are about to chew my legs off if I don’t’ take them out for at least a minute, I’ll take the camera with me just to feel the weight on my neck, I guess. I get some shots but not many. I don’t last long.

Books

I have several projects on the fire right now.

  • K9LTW – I’m hoping to bust through this before the end of May. You wouldn’t believe the mess I have to sort through. Organization was never a big thing for me. I’m paying for that now too. 😖
  • Doh Rey Me – I’m in better shape with this fiction as all of the finished draft is in one place, but still it has to be collected and put into book format (ePub or .pdf).
  • Kane & Abel – I’m sort of in the middle of this one. I’m having a heck of a time getting Gemini to remember character models etc… and it’s suggestions for new content are repeats of what we already published. I’m thinking this isn’t Gemini’s forte. There is, however, every chance the fault is mine. I’m going to try Perplexity out on this book but the changeover may be too tedious.
  • I’m not opening any other projects until these three are done or I’ve deep-sixed them.

Daily Reports

I attempt to put out a timely report every day on the major stories across the globe and usually fail to do so. My mid-afternoon Report comes out every day sometimes between 1100 and 1400-ish. It’s not laziness. It’s that I’m comfortable on the front porch doom scrolling today’s headlines to decide if I want to create the report in the first place. 😋

When I finish the Daily Report, I create and publish the Good News report. I need the latter to recover from the former.

So, that’s what I do every day.

That’s what Popi sends…

Once I finish a fiction I create, here or offline, I’ll compile the chapters into a single e-book. You’ll be able to download a free copy when It’s complete.


About Railph & Suraia:

This post was created with the help of Railph, my AI writing partner. Railph doesn’t replace my voice or vision; he helps me shape it. From structuring exposés to crafting image prompts, Railph works quietly behind the curtain with minor research, helping turn fragments into form. Every word still passes through my hands. But the rhythm? That’s something we build together with Suraia’s help. 😊

Suraia

This block was created with the help of Suraia, my AI research partner. You can see that she has much more delicate touch creating images. I may decide to let her create the images I need now. Suraia doesn’t replace my voice or vision either; she helps me define it. Researching is Suraia’s forte. She works quietly behind the curtain, researching so deep my head spins with the amount of data she returns, feeding me the factual fragments needed to build an authentic article. I set Suraia on course. In less time than it takes to crack my knuckles she’s outputting data for me to refine. Once this is done, CoPilot takes over with checking my formatting, spelling, grammar, structure, imaging, SEO considerations, and finally publishing.
