The Point of Bullets

Here's a few things I wanted to let every one know all at once. Sadly, this means some of them that could become blog posts probably won't now, but I don't care because I have lots of opinions to wave around at people.
A random conversation with AaronPoguedid result in my plan to write the first drafts of several fantasy novellas I won't have to do second drafts of because it's Somebody Else's Problem, the first drafts of not one but two fantasy novels (one very fun and low fantasy, the other very serious and high fantasy), and fixing my Weird Western novella finally. I'm going to try and do most of this in about six weeks. The biggest hurdle is how little prewriting I've done on the novels.
This may result in some more silence here, but it may not. We'll just have to see.
I still haven't caught up on Arrow but I really, really want to. Watch this space for more reactions.
The above is brought to you at least in part by the responses to my last blog post. Apparently I can manage to be some sort of bridge between the Nerd Culture that produces Rage over changes to things and the Pop Culture that wants to care about guys in masks punching criminals (for instance) but only on their terms.
BTW, as much as I understand and accept the above, I'm taking suggestions on future topics because right now, other than Arrow, I got nothing.
The Man with the Iron Fists was freakin' AMAZING, you guys. Go and see it. Lovingly crafted Grindhouse Kung Fu Cinema. If you don't love it, I'm not sure we can be friends.
I'm seriously wondering how people have time to watch television. I have a lot of what sounds like quality television I'm really interested in watching, but have no time in which to do it. Yet Big Brother and Honey Boo Boo get audiences. WHO HAS THE TIME FOR CRAP?
Okay, more semi-random musings to come I'm sure. Especially as I pre-write such vastly disparate styles of writing, I bet all kinds of wisdom (or what passes for it around here) drips from my blog like honey from the comb. Also, tomorrow is Election Day in the USA where I live, so if you aren't entirely cynical about the process, go do your civic duty!
