I've made excellent headway on the speech. It's improved a lot and I see it reaching a point I could call "done" soon. Converting my usual jargon-speak to natural English is very difficult for me because the jargon-speak is how I think. Next comes the practicing and the memorizing. Piece of cake. Thank-you Dale Carnegie for your wonderful book, which I bought at BMV for $3.99!
I also bought a fridge load of healthy food and am working on getting back into my health groove after having a few weeks where I binged on chips and candy in the evening. I'm upping the green veg intake. I made a great chickpea salad and I have soup for lunch this week.
I could use some more examples of biphobia. I have several from my own experience, but if you have a minute, what were your worst/most annoying experiences of biphobia?
I'm also developing a strange addiction to reviews of my fanfiction. I can see why people get pulled into writing story after story. It occurred to me as I was reading the reviews that I have never had a fiction story published. I've published articles and poems and essays, but my fiction hasn't been prioritized before. I didn't expect I'd get the kick I do out of the exposure and the response. 382 people have read my stories on fanfiction.net. Most of the readers are from the US, but there have also been people from the UK, France, Switzerland, Finland, Poland, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Spain, Brazil, Indonesia and Malaysia. I didn't even realize they get Psych in some of these countries. Given how awesome this feels, I can see making more of an effort to publish mainstream fiction writing. Of course I also have an idea for another Psych story, but
mr_pugh made me promise not to write it until after the speech is finished.
I recently watched the pilot for the show Lie To Me. Awesome!
