Greetings and Salutations!

Welcome to the longest-running* yet least-read** blog on the internet! Here you'll find me writing about all the things that I write about, which strikes me, just now, as somewhat recursive. In any case, enjoy :)

Insomnia comes in many flavors

...and I call this flavor 'I ain't no farmer and didn't hear any rooster crow, but here I am up before the sun'.

It's a working title.

Anyway, just to update you on the happenings:


  • I busted the second-last toe of my left foot and have been hobbling around for a week. The bruise has spread halfway up my foot, all mauve and sickly green. Pictures not forthcoming.
  • Had yet another idea for a novel. Think Pearl S. Buck's Dragon Seed meets Glen Cook's Black Company series. Two great tastes that taste great together. In my head, at least.
  • But that will have to wait because, as you may have noticed, I put a new banner up on this here blog. I have too many works in progress, and they've been progressing far too slowly for far too long. So I've given myself a public deadline for the three I want to complete first.
  • Which means I'm going to have to produce outlines. Shudder.
  • It's Father's Day tomorrow. If you know a father, why not tell him thanks for doing his fatherly stuff? Also a hug would not go amiss.

Good news about the writing. But seriously, HTF did you break your toe?

New banner looks awesome! I'm curious too. How did you break your toe?

My BFF did it when she dropped a heavy glass on hers. Her husband told her to "walk it off", before they realised it was broken.

I still have online that time-lapse video of the bruise on my arse slowly dissolving. That injury happened on the way to Anthony's (above commentor) party. If anyone is interested I could post the Youtube link.
