Sorry the site’s been inaccessible the past few days, my wp-cache went bonko. I found out about it at the office, where I have no ftp access through our corporate firewall to rename the plugin and shut it off.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, mobile tech to the rescue! I fired up Total Commander and used [...]
Pretty darn powerful, actually. I’ve been meaning to post more here, but the longer I go without posting, the more it seems I have to explain or do something special to “relaunch” the site.
Of course as usual I’m overthinking things and making a big deal out of something that doesn’t need to be a big [...]
It seemed so simple, at the time. Let’s hop into the wayback machine and go back to just before Halloween, 2007.
I was in a funk, for several reasons. Part of it, I’m chagrined to say, was about a girl. Part of it was out of whack levels of serotonin and dopamine in by brain. And [...]
Posts have been a bit thin this week, but I’ve been busy with:
Upgrading my PC to Vista Ultimate and reinstalling everything
Releasing the new Clean and Simple Apache ROM installers
Ripping the Buffy musical “Once More, With Feeling” to Xvid and MP3 for playback on my phone :^)
Trying to figure out how to quit being frickin’ nocturnal. [...]
I’ve been wondering how much about the actual plot and characters of In Shining Armor I should tell you guys about. Conventional wisdom tells me I should keep my big trap shut about the book itself so no one “steals it” before I finish it and find a publisher. There are several problems I can [...]
After last week’s big announcement and promise of daily content, so far we’ve seen… nada. And while I don’t consider these excuses, I do have some reasons for the silence.
I could blame my lack of productivity on drowning in 3GSM coverage, my sleep apnea sleep-deprived need to sleep about 12-14 hours a day, or scrambling [...]
After eight years, I’m shuttering Writing On Your Palm. I’m in the process of moving all the WOYP content over to JeffKirvin.net; the blog posts are already here, the columns are soon to follow, then illustrations from the old site. By the end of this weekend I expect all the useful content from WOYP to [...]
Okay, let’s try this again. I finally feel like writing again, so let’s see if it sticks.
For those of you that may be wondering, several factors contributed to my dropping off the grid for a couple months.
The first was a horrible case of NaNoWriMo hangover. After writing 50,000 words in a month and blogging about [...]
Okay, I’ve been talking about doing NaNoWriMo for a while now, but now it’s ON. I was able to convince everyone in my writing critique group to do this with me. Okay, well, against me. We all write, and the guy with the lowest final word count buys pizza for the group.
If you don’t know [...]
Josh came up with an interesting idea the other day. Instead of monthly we should publish quarterly. Primarily, this is to make this more profitable, since we won’t lose as much in Fictionwise conversion fees. While I’m glad to have Fictionwise as a distribution partner, between their cut of the sale price and ebook conversion [...]
