  1. Saw this excellent quote for the day… “Don’t screw with the people cooking your books!”

  2. I mean, sure, I expect Kent to be mad that I’m going to sprain his ankle.  But he ought to count his blessings that I decided to not break his leg as I had originally planned on doing.

  3. In a good mood.  About got through an entire episode this morning before work (light revision & some new content) from start to finish (around 7k worth).   YES, woke up before my alarm went off, how could you tell? :)

      To summarize:  Brilliant idiot doesn’t file the serial numbers off his 8-part fanfiction, copyrights it as he pesters the Tolkien estate with manuscripts.  When Amazon/Tolkien release “rings of power”, he finds an unscrupulous lawyer willing to take his money to file a $250M lawsuit against Amazon/Tolkien claiming copyright infringement for “stealing” bits of his series.  Extra surprise, his first “book” got delisted by Amazon, gee, I wonder why?

  5. A rare day indeed, broken 10k today, and still a bit of time left.

  6. My (remaining) cat turns 18 today, he’s old enough to vote!

      Human doesn’t drink.  However, the human spiked the canned food with tuna.

      “She’s not fat, she’s pregnant...and having kittens” is not a line I expect to be using again in my lifetime, but I doubt I’ll forget the day they were born.

  7. Started yesterday.  Happy SPRING everybody.

  8. Is it bad when I’ve kinda stopped keeping track of my story’s body count?

      If you’re writing fanfiction, I guess it depends on the fictional world you’re writing in.  If you’re writing in Elfen Lied or Game of Thrones, it’s understandable.  If you’re writing in My Little Pony or Sponge Bob Square Pants, not so much.  If you’re writing in Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, that’s one hell of a way to not run a railroad!

      Fun non-factoid one:  Post TV series, Sponge Bob tried to get a job as a contraceptive sponge.  But, he was too big-headed, and he just didn’t fit in.

      Fun non-factoid two:  Thomas the Tank Engine and the original Steely Dan were erected in the same British Locomotive Works in the twilight days of the Second World War.  William Burroughs and William Audrey have spent vast fortunes to cover this up.

      Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood would be equally disturbing.

      Nah, my Harry Potter fanfic is gaining a body count.  And on this rewrite, I realize I’m adding to that count.

       

  9. Wow… been about twenty years since I first caught the writing bug.  Not sure to the exact date, but I think March is close enough.  Started with another potter fanfic, wanted to toy with ideas, because the possibility of Harry falling madly in love with a muggle was too tantalizing to wait for the next chapter to see if that author actually pursued the idea or not.  Even after dabbling in originals, it’s enjoyable to work on the sequel, maybe I’ll finish, but also means it’ll bring to an end of having Harry’s girl drop into the boys’ locker room after gym class.

  10. Nice to have an honest scale.  Though, it’ll likely lie and inflate the numbers once I let it out of its box.

  11. Eagerly awaiting the next website update… story posting?  I hope.  Got two things ready for posting, one’s the halloween fic, one’s not.

      My only issue with my halloween oneshot  is that it makes for a very good introduction to a longer story too.

      Couldn’t wait, it’s now up on my AO3 account, waiting for the AFF.

      An idea for mine came to me today, hence my question 🎅

      I don’t see why not. And with any luck, we’ll be able to do more than just talk about them.

  16. There, I think I have a complete Halloween story, maybe I’ll get it revised before Manta can unlock the archives for posting?

  17. Welcome to national LEFTOVERS day.

      Thanksgiving. The holiday that just keeps going and going.

  18. It’s a WEEKEND for me, time to get writing.

  19. Remember, remember!  The fifth of November.

  20. “Soylent Green, it’s taste varies from person to person.”  Good marketing :)

      It’s recycling, therefore eco-friendly too.

      My brother said they didn’t taste like anyone he knew. Quite disappointing…

      That’s why I’ve stopped associating lawyers with sharks, cause I don’t want to defame the sharks.

  22. First FIVE days after the weekend are the hardest.

  23. Well, I achieved success… my halloween story now has a name!!!!

      Idea came to me last night as I was trying to go to sleep!  (Of course that’s when it’ll come.)

  24. Hmm… maybe I should, like, draw a map to this haunted house before I write about it?

  25. Tough part about writing this Halloween story?   No sex.

      Well I’m sure you’re totes fine as long as you keep NSFW off the company’s comps.
