Sunny and hot today. Our high was 94F.

Thid morning I spoke with Bill at SubPress, and we've agreed that I'm going to shelve The Sun Always Shines On TV for the time being and, instead, expand "Dark Adapted Eyes" into a novella, which will be the novella offered with Bright Dead Star. I have tried, but The Sun Always Shines On TV just does not " ( Read more... )

The sun is out today, as it was yesterday. But today there's not so much of the gnawing breeze. Yesterday was cold, despite the sun. Today is almost warm. Okay, let's not get carried away. It's only 59˚F. On April 12th. Spring is hardly even a rumor. Where do the kids up here hide Easter eggs, when there's no grass or weeds or green bushes? Under ( Read more... )

I'm forgetting things, and I can't look back at the LJ for the memories. And I'm only having so-so luck with the new pen and paper journal, because various things have conspired to ruin my penmanship. Which is really ( Read more... )

Setting out from the scabby foothills of Ered Glamoth, yesterday's portion of the Mordorian Death March made it only so far as the banks of the River Culdiun. Being a parched season, the river bed was bone fucking dry, but always fearing sudden and unexpected flood, I made the crossing and reached the eastern banks before calling it a day.
