Marcy, our first mage, is arriving on stage. Things rearranged and her appearance got moved. Her chapter also got long and split. I’m calling part two “chapter 10.5”. I’m sick of renumbering. I’m now stuck. In order to show her list of spells, I need a spell categorization system. One of the common options isContinue reading “Magic Barrier”

Frustrating, but I Can’t Help Myself
Chapter 11 got too long, not only in page count but in scene count. I split it. That pushed 12 to 13, etc… Chapter 9 needs more space. Not word count, physical space. This means I need to extend the “loop” they’re making. At least Google Maps makes that easy. I sent them into Montana.Continue reading “Frustrating, but I Can’t Help Myself”
Booth Babe
I’d never done that before. Another notch in the belt. The Laird had his first booth at a craft fair on Saturday. I dressed in his clothing and stood around looking pretty. “Was it successful?” is a difficult question to answer because it depends mightily upon how one defines “success”. Was it profitable? No. ItContinue reading “Booth Babe”
Flashback
There I was sitting on the toilet listening to the dryer run. Suddenly, I was in the pinkish laundry room, standing in front of the dryer looking forward to hopping in and spinning. Then it was uncomfortable. Then my mom was yelling at me for getting into the dryer. I’m don’t think that I’ve everContinue reading “Flashback”
Impressions
I’ll probably update this a few times as I remember more. I wanted to get it started before I forget everything. Flying sucks. The week and a half cold I picked on the airplane (I will admit that Rome is a possibility) is not fun. I’m tired of coughing up phlegm, now. The rest willContinue reading “Impressions”
Mark & Max V
Placenta Stop giggling (or vomiting); this is Classical Latin so the “c”s are all hard (very similar to how the “a” in Ur-an-us is always short). It’s better than I expected. Sort of a giant sized baclava. On to the recipe… The internal layers (tracta) are a spelt and wheat mix. Max says to buyContinue reading “Mark & Max V”
Vacation!
That was fun, although three weeks is a long vacation. I’m starting with some helpful tips for next time: That’s it. Nothing went drastically wrong. The flight to Fort Lauderdale was uneventful. We did land in Denver at Gate B 324, which is in a massive expansion of the B concourse, with the connecting flightContinue reading “Vacation!”
Away We Go
We’re off to Rome via ship. I wish my legions of adoring fans the best while I’m not posting (so unusual, right?) for three weeks (ish).
Millennia of Dreams – Crushed
It takes a special sort of culture to turn millennia of human dreams into a soul crushing experience. I suppose one can take a certain sort of pride in that. I am speaking, of course, of flying. The vast amounts of money involved make the situation far bleaker than the spiritual pain. Humanity can finallyContinue reading “Millennia of Dreams – Crushed”
Do I Want an “And So?” Category?
Edward Zitron, whoever he is, hates Facebook. The end of the article: This is the petty king of the tech industry — a multi-billionaire that can never be fired, that has billions of people on websites that he has deliberately engineered to boost engagement rather than provide a service. I won’t mince words. Mark Zuckerberg isContinue reading “Do I Want an “And So?” Category?”
