Zero motivation, but way too much to do
Posted on June 26, 2010
Today is one of those days that, in my opinion anyways, separates those who write from those who want to write. I really just want to play WoW all day. Really. But I’m a writer with deadlines. I want to get the podcast going as scheduled, so I need to record at least one chapter …
