Oops
This should have been written and posted two days ago, and my excuse is worse than lame, but I have been distracted by a project which is microns above nonsense.
I post a blog for my Patreon patrons. It details work accomplished, work in progress, and life events that interfere. I also keep an index of these in an HTML document on my hard drive. I use it when I write these bi-monthly The Ides of Mark update posts, and sometimes I use it to figure out when things happened, like hospitalizations and financial issues. Somehow, though, three years of posts, from the last post of 2019 to late November in 2022, got deleted from that record. I kept noticing that there was a gap, but it wasn't until late last week that I actually examined the situation, determined the size of the problem, and discovered how I could, with some difficulty, access all the original posts at Patreon and so rebuild the index. I have been doing that since the 26th, and am half way through, but it has been diverting me from quite a few other efforts.
One of those is that the little horror book Corpoise is technically finished. I was in the middle of writing acknowledgements and a blurb when I realized I had to rebuild this index, and Ken Goudsward at Dimensionfold Publishing is waiting for me to send the finished file and my thoughts on the cover. (One of the entries lost gave the date I actually started work on the book, which gave impetus to the project.) He says it's a good length for a novella, and we've agreed on the title.
I've also got my collaborator Eric Ashley on hold on Verse a Tile, which made some progress before this disruption. I have managed to maintain the posting schedule on In Version , with chapters 112 through 117 continuing stories for Derek Brown, Joseph Kondor, Robert Slade, and James Beam. I continued setting up Multiverser: The Thirteenth Story and An Analytical Commentary on The Book of I Corinthians, and I have been posting quotes daily, ##47 through 59.
The Christian Gamers Guild Chaplain's Bible Study has continued with Mark 9:32 through 41, and posting quotes ##30, 31, 32, 34, 36, and 37. Also released was RPG-ology #75: Flashbacks , another recovered Game Ideas Unlimited piece.
We've been fighting with medical issues on top of everything else, but life is holding together for the moment. I hope that's everything--I've forgotten to mention a few things lately at the Patreon blog, which is the best place to keep up to date on what I'm doing despite those oversights. Hopefully I'll be on time for The Ides of Mark for March.

The Ides of Mark
Goodreads was nagging me, as a Goodreads author, to start another web log--I say another, because I already have the mark Joseph "young" web log http://www.mjyoung.net/weblog/ where I dabble eclectica
