There is something about travel that inspires me to write. I must have generated hours worth of material to sort through and organize for my book, Explore More today.
Thoughts
Nebulae
Upon further inspection of the Orion constellation image I took the other morning1 I noticed multiple nebulae. Had I remembered or even noticed, I would have broken out the tripod and opened up the shutter longer for a better shot. Here, the Horsehead and Flame nebulas are quite visible, as is the Orion Nebula to the lower right. I’ll try again on the return trip home.

$%@*£∞
I was attempting to bulk send the novel draft to my Kindle for a read-through and somehow/someway I am missing four chapters. Gone. Attempting to recover if possible.
**Update** Crisis averted after relocating buried chapters.
Self Improvement
There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that is your own self. – Aldous Huxley
Write Or Wrong
I write to empty my brain. Not to fill a page or a post on this site.
On This Day
I just wrote and deployed a script to display “On This Day” for any/all of my previous articles on that given day. It can be found in the Archives section. When there is a day in the previous years I did not post, the script will read: “Nothing has ever happened on this day. Ever.
“
However, I was fairly busy on October 1st in the past according to this screenshot.

Comet A3
It is 4am and the best time to view/photograph this celestial ice cube is 6 am, one hour before sunrise. Keeping my mind active to stay awake.
Clean Install
The Mac Mini was getting too slow so I decided to reset and restore. Connected right back to my main MacBook and now the Mini is speedy again.
Quick Notes
I’ve added a Notebook page to the website so now every post I tag as “notebook” is all displayed together. These will be short-form posts and quick thoughts. The tags will be labeled under “quickies.”
Draft Day
Spent the better part of the day sorting and organizing text for the Angkor draft, all while there was a slight draft outside thanks to Hurricane Helene.
I almost had a major catastrophe- not hurricane related- due to me sorting chapters around when they disappeared. All of it!
Whew, all the chapters were relocated into the “Author’s Notes” section of the software.
And breathe again.
