I have a very important thing to admit here. Very.Important. Guys, I wrote my first bout of book-porn today. Not porn that could go into a book, but porn about books. It was awesome. Don't believe me?

Well, check this out!

It's my baby's birthday! He's 11. ELEVEN! Crazy stuff. We had a family-type party for him. Dinner of his choosing, presents, cake.

I took him to the movies this afternoon. We saw The Last Airbender, which really could have been better. It seemed like all the good stuff was put in the trailer. The dialogue was HORRIBLE. Absolutely cringe ( Read more... )

I popped season 1 of Veronica Mars in earlier just because. I forgot how much I loved the first season. Just. Wow. Wow. Wow. The pilot episode. The Logan/Veronica hatred that morphs into full on lustiness. Two thumbs up!

I also wrote a bit ...

Umm, where did my evening go? I mean, whoa. I was sitting here, innocently reading some short stories of the naughty variety before I settled in to work on my epic masterpiece and somehow I got sucked into trying to figure out some of the finer points of Word so that I could transfer some of my guilty pleasures to my new Kindle (YAY!) when it ( Read more... )

The Kindle dropped $70 in price today. I'm told this is because a comparable e-reader dropped their price unexpectedly and Amazon has to keep up or get out. So. I bought my Kindle today. It was $189. I consider this a bargain since I would have paid $259 just yesterday. The good news is that I still have about $45 of my Kindle fund left since ( Read more... )

After journaling last night I tooled around on my story. At that point I had written maybe 300 words for the day. Maybe. I went back and re-read some of the parts that I've been mulling over as being either too rough or needing a little tweaking because of things that came later. Then I sat down and actually wrote. I think I turned the ( Read more... )
