Just a tender week after introducing my writing challenge, and talking about how I planned to get my average of 1,000 words-per-weekday done on the weekdays, I just finished Friday’s 1,000 words tonight (it's Sunday). But I finished! My challenge is to get 21,000 words done during the month, and I’m happy to currently be …
Starting a Writing Challenge
I’m currently in my office at the co-working space in San Juan with the ambiance of a storage unit, and coming down from the high of finishing (I think) fixing the last micro-bug in my latest algorithm code. I worked over the weekend to fix errors, and there were so many more than I could …

Life Design
I’m currently at Boundless Mezcal Cafe in Cartagena (cold brew plus their empty upstairs area is a great working combo), on the last day of my trip in Colombia.
