This weekend was General Conference.\u00a0 I watched most of the sessions from friends’ apartments here in the FLSR.\u00a0 While I enjoyed many of the speakers and caught all four sessions, I have to confess that I slept through a lot more of the talks than I should have.\u00a0 I’ll definitely download the mp3s and listen to them when they come out.<\/p>\n
As far as writing goes, this week was a lot slower than I would have liked.\u00a0 Yesterday was packed from the moment I woke up (10:30 am) to when I finally went to sleep, though I did get in a little bit of writing between sessions.\u00a0 Today, I woke up feeling sick, which didn’t help things either.<\/p>\n
Despite all this, I’m really happy to say that I made some serious progress in Phoenix<\/em>.\u00a0 Cut out more than a thousand words and revised nearly twenty pages altogether.\u00a0 Things are right on track for that story, and I’m really enjoying the rewrite.<\/p>\n Hero in Exile<\/em>, though, is different.\u00a0 I didn’t make nearly the progress that I wanted to on that one. <sigh> looks like I’ll have to wait for the next weekend.\u00a0 That, or start writing in it more consistently.<\/p>\n That’s all for now.\u00a0 In the meantime, check out this amazingly cool picture of a solar prominence<\/a> from Astronomy Picture of the Day<\/a>.\u00a0 Or my friend Steve’s blog<\/a>.\u00a0 Just remember, Steve claimed for the longest time that he would never write his own blog, so don’t believe a word he says.\u00a0 You have it from me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This weekend was General Conference.\u00a0 I watched most of the sessions from friends’ apartments here in the FLSR.\u00a0 While I enjoyed many of the speakers and caught all four sessions, I have to confess that I slept through a lot more of the talks than I should have.\u00a0 I’ll definitely download the mp3s and listen… Continue reading General Conference and weekend progress (or lack thereof)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[44],"tags":[42,37,4],"class_list":["post-266","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ds","tag-frustrations","tag-spirituality","tag-the-lost-colony","entry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7iXK-4i","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=266"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=266"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
