Breakfast: Doughnut and coffee Lunch: Grilled cheese, cucumbers, strawberry, and grapes Dinner: Leftover steak, chicken, peas, and corn. The good news is it looks like I am getting two more book contracts for April. That would be awesome. I am 6200 words into my first contract for April, so about 1/3 of the way done. …

Quarantine, April 1, 2020
Today I got to the 2000 word mark (10%) in my new book contract and have started another book on my own. Breakfast was doughnuts, lunch was turkey sandwiches on a croissant and dinner was one of the tenderest steaks I’ve ever cooked. Today was littered with more school work.

Range Advantage with Air
Stealing and range advantage. If you ever want to trap me, just open limp the button with a big hand when I’m in the blind. I raise 100% of all hands when that very rare situation happens. Open limping on the button is just silly to me. That is what happened on this particular hand. …
