It's been a long time since I posted much of anything on LiveJournal besides my weekly updates. Anyone who reads them probably has a good idea of what's up with me lately but at the same time I've been so irritated at myself for not using the journal for venting like I used to. I really like having a written record of things I went through and ( Read more... )

Wow, that Kim person is continuing to stalk me. She comments on my writing webcomic every month to tell me I'm unsuccessful and am inferior to her, then does stuff like try to friend me on Facebook as if I don't know she's doing these things. The latest jab is "you can't even keep a day job." After the place I worked for ten years closed down. Yeah ( Read more... )

The week in review:

• The biggest news: I'm a Lambda Literary Award finalist! This was so unexpected. I didn't even know if I'd be CONSIDERED, since I had to enter in the LGBT Nonfiction category and didn't know if it would get thrown out. But I'm A FINALIST! And now I have to decide if I'm going to go to New York for the huge awards ceremony and " ( Read more... )

The week in review:

• Much quieter week, thank goodness. Just spent some time working on what awards I might be eligible to win for my book and preparing applications where necessary.

The week in review:

• I spent a lot of the week dealing with preparations to go see my sister, brother-in-law, and new nephew! I booked plane tickets and lodging for my mother and me. We'll be leaving on New Year's Eve and coming back January 6. I can't wait! But I'm not looking forward to the cold. Ohhhhh no.

I cannot believe there is a Part 3 to this.

Our dear Victor from the Facebook marriage proposal debacle responded to my message. Even though my message said this:

Leave me alone. I'm sorry you're so desperate but I already told you you're repugnant.

Don't write to me. I am not being unclear.

So first he sends me this:

Long, long ago, my novel Bad Fairy began as a 5,000-word short story ( Read more... )

Just thought I'd update everyone on the ongoing saga of last week's Asshole.

The beginning of the story is here. The short version of that story is that a fellow named Victor e-mailed me to propose marriage while accusing me of desperately seeking attention through my asexuality awareness efforts, and he offered his fantastic catch of a self as a ( Read more... )
