In the e-mail: THE MUMMY OF MONTE CRISTO.
Well, you know me: I’m fond of the PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES genre. It seems inevitable that THE MUMMY OF MONTE CRISTO is going to be one of those things that draws my eyes. Decent reviews, too. I’ll let you know how it reads.

WANDAVISION has a firm January release date.
WANDAVISION drops Jan 15th. About time – and I wonder if it has anything to do with the almost 74 million subscribers Disney+ apparently has now. If they’re looking to keep their content spread out, that would make sense, I guess?

11/12/20 Update, TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Kickstarter.
Six days to go! Some more movement today on the Kickstarter. We go on as we started on; ready to meet what adventure comes our way. That is the proper path. And, really: how else can one go, honestly?
Day 12, TINSEL RAIN NaNoWriMo: 26229/60000.
Back to work! After all the stuff that happened today, of course. But we must continue on!
Patreon!When I left the bar, it was raining, hard. In this town, the rains always come late at night. It’s easier that way, since cloudy days can be hell on people’s tanning schedules. Sunny days and rain-swept nights; you can set your clocks to the schedule. That schedule saved my bacon. Or maybe stopped me from becoming bacon.
You ever hear a fireball when it’s being aimed at you? People like to say that you’ll never hear the one that gets you. Yeah, no, it doesn’t work like that. You can hear the hiss any which way, but it ain’t gonna matter, because by the time you do the damned thing is moving faster than you can dodge.
The funny thing, though; if you get hit in the chest or the limbs, you can maybe come out of it all right. Nobody likes to get hit with a bunch of fire, but the flames go away real fast when it hits. Most clothes won’t catch right away. What you got to really worry about is a shot to the head; plenty of stuff up there to burn, and the fireball that had come out of the night was aimed right at my noggin.
Today is the 50th anniversary of the Exploding Whale Incident. (Remastered video!)
It was a glorious day for the Republic, by all accounts. So glorious that they went to the trouble of digitally remastering the footage. But, really: isn’t this what the technology should be for?

I’m just making a basic statement about reality, here. Eventually somebody’s going to shoot a missile specifically at the statue of the dog, probably because he’s been dreaming about doing it for years and all the other parts of Ashgabat are in flames anyway. It will simply happen; so I feel that this thus does not quite qualify as a political post, and as such is not over the Line.

11/11/20 Update, TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Kickstarter.
A bit of movement today as I announced the new $2000 stretch goal (a digital copy of the upcoming REVISIONARY four-story chapbook) for the TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Kickstarter. Seven days to go! Huzzah!
Day 11, TINSEL RAIN NaNoWriMo: 24228/60000.
This was an unproductive day: I only managed about 800 words. Fortunately, I budgeted for unproductive days, so I am still ahead on wordcount. I am not going to beat myself up over it; instead, I will get some rest.
