I have written a lot of posts this week… in my head… the census job put me on the road on the nice days…the days we have had with excessive heat, i did the sensible thing, i hid in the house. no a/c in the truck and the radio is also gone bye bye… so […]
i told you i can’t be trusted with money.. when i get a little money i buy books… and i did… i had a good sale today…which didn’t mean i had extra money..it just meant that i was feeling self indulgennt…after 3 days of migraines, panic attacks and crying jags…i hate fucking hot weather and […]
I discovered that the library where i do all my research at has a copy machine that does scanning as well…and i mean SCANNING, like scanning entire books to multipage pdfs. That is going to save me soo many hours. I have a couple of books, i want to get digitized by the end of […]
Look what I found! These were making me CRAZY. I remembered them from when I was a kid. They had been VENDED ON A SPINNER RACK in tourist locations as souvenirs. I remember them vividly, or at least I remember standing in front of them begging my mother to let me buy them all. When […]
I KNOW I had all of tolkien’s work in paperback…i KNOW I did..cause i read em. But they aren’t on my bookcase. I must have culled them in a fit of cleaning. I probably WON’T reread them again cover to cover again, not in paperback. But seeing the HOBBIT the other day reminded me WHY […]
It seems if I am busy I don’t think to blog something, if I am not busy the odds are good i’m too depressed to think of something creative. Monday I did the spay/neuter clinic until late, typed until late, Tuesday I went back to the clinic to help install a new floor until late, […]
So i woke up in at 4 am the other day and started typing…i had this idea for another ‘book’ — i don’t know why i insist on putting book in quotes or calling them anything else. But i’m a tech writer i LIKE writing instructions, and my brain thinks BOOKS should be something more […]
I had made up my mind to finish some of the ugly projects that i had put aside during the year. By ugly i mean the ones that weren’t as much fun as others. I did finish the proofing of the Phelps biography as tedious as it was, then i took up the History of […]
now THERE’S a title…if i could run that into a book , i’d make a chunk of change. Perhaps i will. 2013 is looming on the horizon like some sea monster on a map with its mouth open ready to swallow my jonah ass. Since my income dropped drastically last summer..and i mean drastically […]
Today I pulled the trigger on MY first digital downloadable book. I am test driving smashwords with it, which should distribute it to a lot of venues…i am also going to reformat it for a print version and link it to the Kindle version. I’ve been digging through my computer for more material I can […]
