So here's what I've been doing today:

1. I made a Wordpress! Eventually this will be the central hub of my website. At the moment it's getting broken a lot as I play with styles and figure out where I want all the content to go.

2. I made a Tumblr! And I gotta say - as much as I always hated Tumblr as a casual browser of the site, I absolutely ( Read more... )

Poetry Fishbowl today at ysabetwordsmith's journal. (Instructions/explanation at the link.) She does these regularly, and I think it's a fabulous idea and keep meaning to link to them, but I am so sucktastically erratic about reading my LJ friendslist that I don't usually notice one is going on 'til it's over.

... is Pixel-stained Technopeasant. I like being a pixel-stained technopeasant. Seriously, I do. Writer/cartoonist/artist/fanficcer/blogger gets too cumbersome; I finally have a nice catchy word for what it is that I do!

And I am SO posting something next week for International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day.

I've spent the whole day working on my novel, but not actually writing much of anything new ... I'm just taking the scenes in the first half (which weren't working) and rearranging them. And then having to rewrite because suddenly people are talking about things they shouldn't know yet, and the pacing STILL doesn't work ( Read more... )
