The experiment in pen names is proving fruitful. I’ve fallen into a bit of a trap with, “Can I actually publish this?” The answer is: yes, but if I don’t put my name on it, I might take more chances.
Retro on Sprint 10: This was my most successful sprint since sprint 1 or 2. That’s a pretty big change over the course of really only two weeks. What I Did Well: I recognized that I was the problem, and made moves to correct that. I didn’t keep a good standup record, but I wrote …
A week in I’ve had my best week writing in a while. But I have not had much posting discipline — aside from the movie reviews. Think I’m going to let the sprint go on and keep my writing goals up and then work on the post goals later.
Clearly, when looking back over the pattern of posts I’ve made here, the number one issue I’m having with writing is focus and discipline. This sort of misbehavior spills over into almost everything I do, actually, which is something I have to hold myself accountable for. Writing this blog was meant to force me to …

Six went down in flames again. Seven is going to be all about trying to figure out what I can do to make myself better at this.
Ugh. Sprint 5 turned into a real downer with the issues I’ve had with WP. That being said, that’s my own fault. But, it didn’t end well. Sprint 6 is going to be about getting rid of WP and writing when I can. Here’s to Sprint 6, Flying Fartknocker.
