Thu, 08:12 : Was reading an article on a transgender man who was committed to an insane asylum, c 1820s. Thu, 08:14 : Oh yeah. The earlier post was an rt, btw.

Mon, 12:31 : What is with all these lists? 7 life lessons you need to blah blah blah... Yeah, like I tick them all off and poof! I'm perfect. Mon, 12:32 : Aside from the feeling that I'm being sold something, the inundation of lists on the web seem manic, contrived, maybe more than a little OCD Mon, 12:34 : No, I don't make lists. Not at all. I make notes...of things...sometimes. And sometimes I remember to read them. No, not lists at all. Mon, 12:37 : In my latest list of absent-minded note taking, I forgot to add "seem" to my word weed. Did I say list there? Oops. Mon, 12:38 : Anyhow, am weeding "seem" from B3 prior to booting that thing onto the web in it's less "seem"ly form. That's a stupid pun. Damn. Mon, 12:39 : I have managed to fix the weapon logistics issues in the Bound set, though. That's good. Mon, 12:40 : And this sets up the next sets better, though I may need to make minor changes when I get back up to the Redemptions. Mon, 12:46 : Have a coupon!

Yep. I drive great! Really. But I get anxiety attacks after. :-( Mon, 20:45 : Coupon!

Wed, 20:12 : I've confirmed the existence of gremlins in MS Word. I swear. Wed, 20:50 : Slowly fixing my weapons logistics problems. Wed, 20:50 : Re-uploading fixed versions as I go. Wed, 20:51 : Road trip this weekend. Gone for five days. Probably have internet withdrawal by end of trip. Wed, 22:10 : The word to weed tonight is "softly". Damn it all to hell. Wed, 22:23 : "Softly" weeded out, but now to get rid of "at once". Likely missed weeding both from B1. On B2. D: Growly face.

Thu, 12:29 : Yay! I have two new reader reviews over on Amazon. Links coming up. Very nice reviews. 4/5 stars. Thu, 12:32 : Review Bound in Stone 1, 4/5 stars. #glbtq #fantasy Based on this review, I need to add a warning for horror content. http://t.co/U9RQRhdq Thu, 12:33 : Review Bound in Stone 2, 4/5 stars, #glbtq #fantasy http://t.co/7DWuIVJw Thu, 12:34 : These reviews were a very nice surprise. :-) Thu, 12:34 : Noticed that some people buy all of the Bound set and stop reading once they hit Gryphon 1. Thu, 12:35 : Apparently I am still attracting readers who dislike the heterosexual aspects of Gryphons 1 and 2. Not that there's much sex. Thu, 12:37 : I've just done a continuity check of Gryphon 1 (oldest novel of the series). I'm working on the same for Gryphon 2. I kinda skipped around. Thu, 12:37 : I was doing continuity of Redemption 1 and 2, then got distracted by one of the Dispositions, then skipped down to Gryphon 3. Thu, 12:38 : Eventually I figured I'd just start from the first chronological book and work up. Thu, 12:39 : Anyhow, the tablet makes a really good tool for continuity checks. Different format, things pop out that weren't noticed before. Thu, 12:39 : Saw a plot poo in Gryphon 2 last night. The fix will be in the next upload. Be prepared to sync your Kindle or whatever else. Thu, 12:40 : It was a very tiny plot poo. A rabbit dropping. No, a mouse dropping. But yeah, OCD writer/editor. Thu, 12:41 : No mouse droppings aloud. What the hell is that? Homonynomnymonyms. Thu, 12:42 : I love my fingers some days. Stop thinking that! I mean I love how they right stupid things on the keyboard without me noticing. Thu, 12:42 : Sometimes, they're funny. My fingers have a sense of humour. Thu, 12:42 : Right. Did you see that homonynomonym? Thu, 12:43 : Yeah. I hate my fingers some days, because they're not as funny as they think they are. Thu, 12:44 : Homonyms are a real poo for people who can't spell. Even grammar checkers fail to catch them sometimes. Thu, 12:45 : I wrote a little thingy on that over on Wattpad. I have a small write up on things to make writing better, based on things I've seen. Thu, 12:46 : Things like saying things like things over and over and... Actually, I haven't written that particular item up yet. Overuse of words. Thu, 12:47 : Ok, rambling accomplished. Back to the raspberry patch. Tons of raspberries this year. Yum. Thu, 13:31 : I posted a story "Things You Can Do to Improve Your Writing Now - More on overuse, accidental or habitual" http://t.co/rguc199D Thu, 14:09 : I posted a story "Things You Can Do to Improve Your Writing Now - Write it. Just write it." http://t.co/7hsjs2eR Thu, 16:59 : Have headache after picking raspberries. All that arm stretching upset the arthritis in the neck. Lottsa raspberries though. Fri, 10:15 : I have come to the conclusion I have been too tired to edit by the time I hit Gryphon 2 in the series. Finding lots of nitpicky stuff.

Wed, 12:06 : Latest stupid phone call from unknown caller has convinced me I'm right to usually ignore the call until I hear someone talking on machine. Wed, 12:09 : Imagine trying to sell a techie like me on the idea that they can fix my so called infected computer because, yes, they've been spying on me Wed, 12:10 : And they know my computer is infected. Yep. Not that the word spying was used. Wed, 12:10 : And it's not like I don't know how to throw my infected computer out the window all by my self. Wed, 12:11 : Back to wark after latest interruption. Look at that! I like it. Wark. Wark should be a word, or the name of a particle... Wed, 12:12 : Oh, darn. Now I have to research and make sure a wark isn't a particle name. Wed, 13:29 : Ok, so minor tweaks as a result of continuity check in series, but another Gryphon 1 uploaded and awaiting distribution to higher channels. Wed, 13:30 : The same thing will happen to every book no doubt, minor tweaks, new uploads. And then wrap up Redemption 3 cont. Wed, 13:30 : Which I had another good idea for while doing something else in the house. Everything in the plot is coming together much better. Wed, 13:30 : I am so glad I rewrote the thing. Wed, 14:41 : RT @vihartvihart: I am pretty excited about the new Higgs-like particle discovery, if you couldn't tell. http://t.co/F9En4zh3 #higgs Thu, 10:44 : The TPP's Internet trap could criminalize your use of the Internet http://t.co/RXNOtAFZ @theopenmedia @sum_of_us #tpp

Is funny true. http://t.co/wk1rozDi Wed, 10:20 : ACTA voted down. https://t.co/crCWWtEX Wed, 10:58 : Hope all my American friends have a great time on this national day of celebration.
