Let’s face it, I covet stuff. And nothing starts my Saturday (writing day!) off better than finding a bunch of stuff to covet on these here interwebz and then telling myself that if I finish this book or that book or, you know, sell something (Not my job anymore! Now the job of my [...]

I haven’t done a covet post for a while so I thought I’d do one now. Because why not? There are at least ten things I SHOULD be doing so blogging a random “shopping” list of my wants seems like a totally appropriate use of time. My excuse is that I actually have [...]

I know it is not Friday, so stop being such stickler for precision dating. It’s people like you that make the trains run on time and such forth. Well, good for you. Certainly it’s nothing to do with the likes of me, who actually have to look at a calendar to ascertain what [...]

1. I took a long break over Christmas in which I did not do a SINGLE WORD of writing. Not a bit. I shopped. I wrapped. I procrastinated. I did not write. AND NOW I AM REFRESHED! Damn it, I am. Totally refreshed. Sort of. [...]

Well, looky here, it’s our annual, helpful Christmas gift-buying feature, brought to you entirely by ME. No sponsors are even slightly interested in my list although I hear that Gilette is looking for a new face for their razors. That sounded wrong (it was really just a dumb Tiger Woods reference [...]

It’s time once again for NaNoWriMo, which is just November in a fancy costume and with coffee mugs and t-shirts you can buy to validate your experience. (I bought the coffee mug, yes I did.) If you are me and are panicking and poor, you pretty much NaNoWriMo every month because Fear [...]

How can I come up with five things to say about rabbits, you ask? EASY. That’s how. I have more than five. I could probably, under pressure, come up with maybe even SIX. Six things about rabbits. Hold on to your hats or whatever you want to hold on [...]

Five things, five things. How about FIVE LISTS OF FIVE THINGS? That’s right, it’s TWENTY FIVE THINGS. Holy hell. It’s like I’m giving you my SOUL except it’s much smaller than that and easier to write down. Or bigger. I mean, how big is a soul? As big as a dime? Or bigger, like a [...]

Once again I’ve hit a wall. Not literally. If I literally hit a wall, I’d probably break — at a minimum — all the bones in my hand. I’m “lucky” like that. Not that I have brittle bones, but that I have bad luck. Not REALLY BAD LUCK, like, you know, a fatal disease, but [...]
