almost entirely consumed online, so I wouldn't be killing any trees.
I've set some of my novels up to print on demand as paperback, but feel kinda weird about it.

It was an odd moment when someone told me that I should have "I Will Have You" hardbound.
I read electrons. Ever since it became possible, my allegiance to print shifted irrevocably to the ease and convenience that is ebook/online reading. One of the reasons I decided to write JAFF is that it is

Meanwhile my favorite chiropractor moved to Europe when Trump was elected...
I guess JFKJ's type are the ones who want you to swallow essential oils.

My SIL was in ballroom when she was younger. Man, those folks. And they think we fen are weird.
Such a delightful movie. I thought it worked much better than the Japanese version.

I got halfway through "Altered Carbon" then realized I wanted to flense the parts of my brain that had been involved in reading it.

The next stage of courtship is two instances of ChatGPT, posing as lonely singles, discovering that they are, in fact, the same entity.

But the Jane Austen subs are fantastic. Even if about 30% of the posts are lauding the '05 movie.

Despite growing up with Star Wars as the closest thing to my family religion (I still remember lining up for Empire - and Phantom Menace), they keep reminding me that I am excluded from their core demographic: watchers who prefer to turn off their brains.

"A little sea bathing would set me up forever."

But everyone forgot that because of how bad he was at driving.

Here we are, born to be three kings
We're the myrrh-sters of the universe.

A friend of mine just had a birthday party. The invite included a plea for no gifts but to maybe take something away.
Empty space is the most valuable thing in middle age. More room for PT.

The first album I bought on my own. Oh how I mooned over that centerfold.

YouTube video by Napoleon XIV - Topic They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!

We indie authors are nothing if not committed.

Living in and working with my brain really leaves me with an appreciation for how holographic it is. Everything is intermingled to some extent, the various parts reflecting each other.
That's not something a usable computer is ever going to have.

Started to watch the movie. Not a lot of overlap with the book so far.
I'm not sure any of us is prepared to do as much laudanum as Shelley expected her readers to enjoy.

Sorry, we "Muppet Family Christmas" diehards can be a bit much.
But... Fraggles!

When I think about what London was like in the Georgian era, I really admire Bingley's broadmindedness.

Didn't the gyms that tried to power the lights via their machines end up scrapping the whole thing?

Revelations started to make a lot more sense when I heard that John of Patmos had a thing for ergot.

FB is so bloody scamful. I hardly get any replies there that aren't sheer bigotry or a scam attempt. Reddit is wholesome by comparison.

What a reminder that I've been neglecting Questionable Content.

Thinking of making spritz, but not sure if I can handle acquiring almond extract. As a kid I ate a whole tube of marzipan and almond flavor and I now have beef.

Have you met us? Our ancestors thought stampeding whole herds off cliffs was a great hunting strategy that would in no way threaten their lifestyle.
We never met a bad idea we didn't love.

Hard to look away from that face. Looks like an early model of the orc that wanted to eat Merry and Pippin's legs.

A lot of it is obvious even from looking at the shell. I raised chickens and holy moly are some eggs weird. Odd shapes, hard bumps, spots of color, etc.
Customers would find them as unacceptable as they do imperfect-looking apples.

I deleted that offer email from Amazon so fast... Not subjecting my readers to whatever horror genAI produces.

I'm afraid that the writer's forums are deluged with people asking, "What would be a popular thing for me to write?"
I don't see but that such motivation is going to produce derivative, soulless work.

Oh, that isn't a vice Austen, herself, indulged in, but one fanfic writers do. I think it serves a modern desire for conventional tidy, happy endings.

The ease of self publishing has made it possible for so many indie authors to put their work where anyone can find it. Blow your mind with a genre you've never tried!
