The good news: I had 2, count 'em TWO!! remission days in the last week ( Read more... )

I can only apologize for seemingly disappearing the way I have. I worried some people, and I'm so sorry ( Read more... )

Tuesday morning I go in for my oral/facial surgery and I won't be able to write much for maybe a week? I don't know how my pain levels will be after having my flesh cut open and my bone scraped out and all that. It will take a full year to get the bone to grow back in (after I get cadaver bone in a grow gel pumped into my skull!) Yeah! Fun, huh ( Read more... )

Ah HA!! The last bit of review of what I've learned and come across this last decade. A weird journey for sure. I've spend HOURS upon HOURS reviewing my own writing going back many years, and it stuns me that this isn't more of a chore. I'm glad I like my own silly meanderings and rant-fests! I at least entertain myself with my past prose ( Read more... )

I have a lot to catch up on after my 3 months of near-uselessness!

Tonight, I posted on my Patreon site about my intentions in the near future-- including re-working my tier reward system. I completed that tonight, and messaged all my Patrons about changes to their tier. Anyone who was promised something in the past still gets that reward for the ( Read more... )

Something is wrong with my brain. Ever since the fractures and the massive shock I was in and the oxy medication for weeks (full dose only first week and then immediate tapering and now completely off it for days) -- I can't think very well in words ( Read more... )
