Their Eyes Are on the Sky or the Ground Below

This one’s a little more metaphorical and I can’t explain because spoilers. Also, I am very, very sleepy. So… here’s some… pretty music with birds in it? I’m going to nap now. I’d rather be the one who loves than to be loved and never even know  

Don’t Care. I’m a Bear.

How Classical Ballads Were Written*

No tunes today. Today only this: * Not a joke. Pretty sure there’s a similar level of truthfulness at work here as there was in most of the traditional ballads written back in the day.

I’m not sure if it’s all artists or simply all children that possess this sort of moral ambiguity but it’s certainly an option I considered when I was young.  

Lying on the Floor and Bitching at the Ceiling is Part of my PROCESS

February 25, 2014 by

This is my motivational penguin (care of Chibird) because I am writing query letters and synopses at the moment and they make me crazy. Well. Crazier. I seriously seem to spend an equal amount of time trying to convince myself that the procrastination I am involved in is a perfectly valid part of the process […]

The Future is Zombie Gorillas?

This is actually a cover of a song by Gorillaz, but I like this version much better. The downside to the whole ‘it’s a cover’ aspect is that there’s no awesome video clip for you. Because I am sweet and generous (and, okay, the animation is adorable and there are zombie gorillas) I’ve included the Gorillaz […]

I Sound Like a Drunken Chipmunk

I feel like I’ve been proofreading this book forever. Mostly because I’ve been saying I was proofreading it since mid January. This is a lie I’ve been telling to everyone including myself. I wasn’t proofing. I was line editing. Which is a whole other thing. But now I am done. Thank god. I’ve been actually proofreading […]

Keep Your Pants On

I don’t think the comma is unnecessary. I do think we could use less of them. Maybe a lot less. A bunch of them seem there for convention rather than because they affect comprehension. Punctuation should only exist to facilitate understanding. I think I’m feeling this issue a little more than is totally reasonable right […]

Okay, so this is embarrassing. One of the tabs I just finished dealing with. One of the ones that was open. Not re-opened from bookmarks or anything. One in my current ‘do something about this’ tab group. Was from 2 January 2013. Yes. When I said I hadn’t finished my admin stuff from the first […]

And At a Quarter After Two We Argued It Was Nine

This is a great drinking song and also a great funeral song, so naturally it’s perfect for Drink Me. It’s been recorded by a lot of different people but this is my favourite. Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I’ll never forget Some of the boys got loaded drunk, and they ain’t […]
