Delta Hey Max Nine

June 7, 2012 by

A few days ago — call it last Thursday — while I was running I sort of accidentally listened to half of “Apollo 9” by Adam and the Ants. Since then I have been unable to get it out of my head. (Fi— Fi— Fi— Fi— Five. ) There is no reason for this. It’s […]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, BRAIN?

May 24, 2012 by

Wuffie: How’s the wordsmithery coming along? Me: This morning…? A work in progress. As in, I am progressing toward consciousness. I just grabbed a glass from beside the sink so I could take my tablet. I thought it was my juice glass, but I’m pretty sure that was liquor. I am finding that being sick […]

The Kraken Might Be Arriving Today*

I woke up with a headache this morning — which, let me tell you, is a terrible way to start your day — so I’m going to beat my head against the wall until it feels better. Or something. Don’t look at me like that. It should work. I mean, it’ll hurt less when I stop… I was going to […]

What We Do Every Night, Pinky…

I was reminded of this last night and it still makes me snicker. Possibly more so when I haven’t slept that much, but bah! I say to your eight o’ clock in the morning. You will have Orson Welles and you will have Pinky and the Brain and you will like it! The Orson Welles […]

Apple Nerds Rejoice for Waldo Has Been Found and the Deep Fried Mars Bar is No More

I spent yesterday flummoxing Apple geeks*. Which is a bit of fun. I recommend it if you’ve got an afternoon free and a way for taking your computers off the deep end. I told them what was going on and they were following along right up until I said, And then it said the hard […]

No One Expects the Spanish Inquisition. Or Satan.

My laptop just kernel panicked itself to death. Which is a really great way to start your day, let me tell you. This is a lesson to us all. Never become complacent. To reinforce this lesson for the rest of you I am going to leave this here:    

Don’t Do It. For the Love of God. Save Yourselves.*

So last week I asked a couple of people to read a third person version of the first chapter of Wizards, to see how they felt about it. And received from one the most conflicted response I’ve ever had, and from the other a voice of passionate loathing for the new version. Apparently the first […]

Three Quarters of a Page Inconveniently Too Long

May 9, 2012 by

I am disappointed to discover that the first chapter of Path is three quarters of a page inconveniently too long. Too long for what, you say? Such a good question. Too long for the extremely precise requirements laid out by this conference I’m going to. Do they ask for a specific word count? Oh no. […]

The Writing Process in Pictures

May 7, 2012 by

Caris sent me this link on Friday and I snickered. Possibly more than was entirely reasonable, but I was a bit sleep deprived. Was. Am. Anyway. I think that my writing process is slightly more stream-lined though. It’s more like this: Then the cycle repeats. In the time I spent writing this post my brain helpfully pointed out […]

Why Must We Let Logic Rule Us, Anyway?

I just had this awesome dream, which would make a great story — except for the fact that it’s based on this kind of science that… isn’t. That and there were these major plot points that just don’t make sense to a waking mind. I woke up and got as far as, That was really… […]
