Chapter 18. Well… Weapons issue resolved. Some monster needs to be killed, hacked into bits, and the best parts brought back for dinner. That has happened. These people (wolves?) just don’t shut up. Chapter 18 is now at 27 pages. It’s amazing how much dialog spews forth when you take a bunch of pups onContinue reading “No one’s waiting, but…”

88 feet per second
60 m/h * 5280 ft/m * 1/60 h/min * 1/60 min/sec = 88 ft/sec. “In the head math” rounded 5280 to 6000 to make all come out even. 100 ft/sec is decently close (for most things). What brought that up? The concept of “following distance” while driving. Distance is important, but it’s a second orderContinue reading “88 feet per second”
Magic Barrier
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).
