Well, I’ve had a little time to play around with LibreOffice and it seems fairly straightforward so far, so if I can just crap out 1000 words or so for a dribs drabs story chapter I can actually achieve mine! So, You! 3 then… pippychick> I can see the posters now: “Daddy, what did YOU do in the Trump War?” And the father looks up concerned that he didn’t produce enough porn during the long dark years.

I vowed to find time to do something creative everyday. Creating a feast for family today. Health, happiness and wealth is my wish for us all.

I’m going to stop being so negative. I just realized that I have a shitty outlook on everything that has to do with anything I do. This was pointed out to me by my family while most of them were a little drunk which means it’s probably true. I’m also going to get to work on that fallout shelter I’ve always wanted just in case things go the way I have a bad feeling they will. I’ve already got a couple of cases of wine so my stockpile is off to a good start. Oh and I guess I might try to write some stuff too. Happy New Year!

Write something I can get paid for. Find a future that doesn’t involve street homelessness. Go to the local Labour party meeting and use the ‘thirty minute topic’ to explain to the right-wingers why they’re all twats. Watch the slowly approaching Brexit/War in Europe/US Presidency with a sense of creeping horror. Just the usual, really.

BW, convert your money to British, then you can most definitely lose 25 pounds! (Likely the cheaper way to keep the resolution too )

It… it sounds a lot like me. I mean, not at writing. But in general.

At a certain point, you just need a word processor, the software doesn’t have to be fancy. The user interface doesn’t really need to get an annual makeover, misplacing all the icons/menus so you have to relearn it all. Generally, I’ve found LibreOffice to be quiet stable and consistent. It might be a bit outdated/obsolete in certain areas, but that’s fine, it just has to work.

A good resolution would be to finish one of the stories I’ve already started. (Though I’m not sure, my mind’s already diving into the sequel to my holiday fic.)

Fallout shelter? It’s an okay game, great for the price (free).

Now, more than ever, we need to establish that AFF writers’ commune/Guild HQ/Union somewhere that won’t see any action. Then, in years to come, documentaries will be made about the written pornography that was circulated during WWIII. Which not only lifted spirits, but also caused a crucial delay in the activation of nuclear strikes, since the soldier with the job was waiting for just one more chapter, hereby averting total catastrophe and saving the world for future generations to slowly rebuild and enjoy.

Mine is: “Find a publisher who isn’t going to go belly-up.” Oh, and lose 25 pounds, because my body dysmorphia is playing up again.

I just have: “Gonna find time to write.”

Hmmmmmmm, I’m gonna tease my loved ones less...damn, broke that already…. I know, shit, I’ll swear less….damn…. ahhhhhh, eat more cake?

“When you stop buying a calendar and start using a stone circle.”

::snerk:: I’m not even celebrating birthdays in years any more. I do decades, which is curiously liberating, actually.

One is supposed to stay up *until* midnight for New Years. Instead, I wake up, my mind’s wired on my story, and I can’t get back to sleep. Oh well, I don’t have to work tomorrow either, so may as well get some writing in.

Happy New Years everybody

Happy New year's to you and your fabulous family. And Kari, happy upcoming birthday.

This’ll be short! I’ve finally updated Dribs, Drabs and Doggy Tales. Sorry all, been working entirely too many hours IRL. Link to the newest.. The chat is open to guest users! We do expect people to not indulge in flame wars in chat, try and cause issues for other users, and the like. If that does happen, the mods and I all have the capability of booting anyone from the chat. The coder had a glasses mishap, and as she and I are BOTH blind as bats without our extra eyes, she has understandably only started back on the coding once she got replacements. I’ve updated the how to avoid the black diamonds. That’s it for now!

Happy new year, guys
