My main system here burped yesterday and then refused to boot. (I got it running again with a couple of files on a floppy disk; a trick I'll explain in a day or two.) It's been showing some odd signs of instability for several months, and what bothers me far more than that is that I have no idea whyand I'm typically more careful about these things than most people. So today I'm going to do a system meltdown and then rebuild it. I may not post tomorrow at all. We'll see.
In the meantime, Amazon seems to be shipping my novel ahead of its stated 4-6 week time delay, and
there are new copies available through ABEBooks that can be shipped in a day or two. Maybe we're making progress.
Now, back to the battle...
