Officially official

. After much rending of garments and gnashing of teeth, my broken shell of a web-designer has finally completed the task set before him and yea, it hath pleased me mightily. It is officially official: Jay Kristoff is now not only a gibbering interwebs monkey capering for the crowd’s amusement, Jay Kristoff is now a [...]

A Thing

MORE GIVEAWAY PIMPAGE ARM FLAILING. This is mostly for book bloggers, or people who run blogs, or own websites or whatever. If you don’t have a blog, I guess you could create one specifically to enter this contest. Which would probably be going above and beyond the call of duty, and would probably earn you [...]

. You know that time when you were a kid and you snuck downstairs on Christmas eve looking for Santa Claus, and instead found your dad in his underwear, scratching his arse, knocking back the brandy you’d left for St Nic and feeding the carrots you’d left for the “reindeer” to the dog?
