Seems like I'm close to setup a really nice daily routine that will help me both work productive and write enough. And of course there are some free time for workout and rest as well.

Let’s try onlyoffice instead of google and libre office I used a lot before. Looks nice on Mac and also has basic offline mode. Libre get worse now and I don’t want to pay for Microsoft office.

Finished Black Clover. What can I say... at first I thought it would be Naruto-style hard work against genius anime. But then... It was really good and fun. 8/10 only because of the series between elves' and the final arcs.

I've also been trying to post regularly on Instagram and here to get a new audience and maybe promote my work, but it seems impossible when I'm nobody and people don't know me. So now only when I want to.

Today's mourning... I could... finally... do my minimum work on the book before my main work! Sounds funny, but for me it's a real thing, because apparently I spend my mourning waking up with a cup of coffee, even after a walk with my dog. #writing

The travellers found themselves in a lighted room, and the gatekeeper hurried to close the entrance, hiding the key in his robe pocket and looking scornfully at Sly. "Mr. Mage doesn't know how to heal wounds?" "Mr. Mage knows how to inflict them!" (c) Adventurers. Prologue

Since my book Adventurers. Act 1 almost ready, there will be some quotes from it: "The goal that had been so clear and easy at first began to become much more elusive. It seemed as if the young man was beginning to sober up." Storyteller.

I am a little afraid to write a new book this year. For the last 4-5 years I have been working as a PM and have completely forgotten about my writing dream. However, I have translated two books into English and edited one in my native language. Anyway, seems like the time has come!

One of the writers who inspired me a lot was Hideyuki Kikuchi 菊地秀行. Especially Vampire Hunter D series. The setting of novels is a pure gem for me. And of course the art of Yoshitaka Amano 天野喜孝. He is also one of my favorite artists with his light painting style.

Personally, I'm a music listener who prefers the music to the lyrics. For me, singing is like an additional instrument that makes the songs better, and I try not to dive deep into it, even if I know the language. 🙃 How about you? Are you a lyric or sound type listener? #music

Notification to myself: "Don't forget to have fun writing. Be published is nice, but you wouldn't be disappointed without readers only if you had fun in precess." Same with videos. Repeat daily after taking food. :)

The opening of the day - classical Russian literature, quite popular in the Western world. Why is that? What the... It's the most depressing thing you can read... Great and very deep, but still... #booksky

So many posts about blocked TikTok from US users give me a strange feeling. Like... there are many ways to avoid it. Maybe because I had experience when a government blocked almost everything...

I just want to make videos about Hard Rock and Metal, and also writing books without searching a “regular” job to have what to eat. Am I asking too much?

Actually, I envy those who are native in English. I spent five hours recording for my new video and there are still a lot of mistakes and bad pronunciation... Five hours of trying over and over again. Gush... I hope it will be understandable.

And Dragon Age: Inquisition was my first game on Play Station 4. I completely forgot about that. It's still quite good.

I don't like Shorts and all that kind of fast content. But YouTube loves it and... most importantly, promotes it. So... I have to do it too. youtube.com/shorts/gKQko...

I still haven't had any new games, so it's time to replay something old, but I hope good. How about Dragon Age Inquisition? I don't want to play a new one because it doesn't look like an RPG anymore.

For the second year in a row, instead of regular Christmas trees, we buy traditional Georgian Christmas trees called 'Chichilaki'. And it's beautiful. Locals say it must be decorated with traditional sweets and... burned until the baptism. For good luck.
