Hi, everyone. Blue Night is back online after 1) a bit of scheduled maintenance Saturday night led to 2) a Jet-Pack update that went horribly awry. Oops.
Since Sunday morning, I have learned the following: John Stewart is breaking my heart, Brian Williams is breaking my heart, the 24-hour news cycle needs to take a chill-pill, I really hate retread tires and think they should be outlawed, foot pain is stupid, the folks at WordPress are wonderful, there’s a person in Canada I really want to call out for being an idiot*, Valentine’s Day is a special little hell, and my friends and I didn’t win the Powerball lottery jackpot. Sigh.
OTOH, I’m within 8,000 words of getting ‘Singer in Rhunshan’ up to commercially viable length, if not finding a better title for it. I have the final outlines for ‘Moro’s Shield’ and ‘Leopard’, if I can crowbar in time to work on them post-Singer. I finished another part of a hall costume for the next time I’m at a convention (whenever that is). I’ve received word that my new book arts pieces ‘Arachne’ and ‘Spice Book’ have already sold.
Life is not great, but moving in the direction of ‘acceptable’.
*Added 2-13-2015: Okay, so the Canada person redeemed themselves. Sorta.
