    Hey gang! It's officially ... slightly-more-than-halfway-through NaNoWriMo. How're you all holding up? Any successes? Struggles? Tales of ennui? Thought it might be nice to check in and see how everyone else is doing :) (I myself am staying just ahead of ...

    So, I'm Bisexual

    This is something I've only realized (or, rather, allowed myself to realize) recently. I guess I feel comfortable posting it here to imzy because imzy is pretty controlled in terms of who can see what you write--and I appreciate that a lot right now. I me...

    The Day of Much, Much More Woe

    Wow. The number of weak, cowardly, spineless Americans, who cling to the comfort that strangles their neighbours, is devastating. I'm so sorry. I have no words, except, if you're reading this, and you feel alone: I'm with you. You matter. You count.

    The Day Of Woe

    IBS episode in the morning. Had to run through the rain to get to the bus. Forgot my jacket. Laptop is updating so I can't do my morning writing till that's done, and it looks like it'll take a while. It's gonna be tough to be peppy today.

    So, Beyond the Fire is the Mass Effect fanfic series I write (or at this point it might be more accurate to say wrote) on fanfiction.net. It's presently about three quarters of the way through the second story. And a part of me wants to go back to it.... ...

    Degrees of Beauty by Cassandra Khaw - Shared from /sff

    Thought I'd share a really cool (gory, and disturbing) story by Cassandra Khaw. A nice, quick, bite-sized story to creep you out in the morning (or whatever time of day you're presently experiencing)

    Burt's Law of Interpreting a Partner's Praise

    Given that it's NaNo and I suspect more than a few of us are going "Hey, honey, read this!" I thought I'd share this helpful metric to determine the validity of the response of a (sweet, well-meaning) significant other/friend/etc. who has read your work: ...

    I have no prophet, but I have Carl Sagan

    At least once a day I reflect on the fact that I am in very few ways happy to be a white man. Let me be clear: I don't struggle with gender identity or dysphoria or any of the issues that DMAB gender non-conforming folks do. That's not the kind of thing I...

    I'm a morning writer, now

    So, I've always been someone who wrote late in my day. I liked the idea of writing in the dark by the light of my laptop, yanno. Very cyberpunk. Anyway, I recently started a call center job that means I have to get up at four am for a two hour bus/train r...

    So I started this blog with the intention of focusing mostly on SFF, especially book reviews. Except the next book I want to review is kind of. Uh. Bad. And I absolutely do not have it in me to give a mean (or even negative) review. So now I need to find ...

    On Joining In

    So, Imzy kinda presents an interesting conundrum. Ostensibly, it's a social media platform. But it's clearly pretty tailored to people with established audiences, right? (I.e.: not me, who am I talking to, why am I here, etc. etc.) But it's also incredibl...

    The Virtues of Hitting the Eject Button

    Because sometimes you've got to toss out a few really shitty omelettes to make one good one. Which involves, uh. Breaking a lot of eggs. I'm going somewhere with this, I promise. Recently, I've been reading Necrotech (see my review below; I love that book...

    Review: NECROTECH by K.C. Alexander

    If you want a fuckingly good time, then Necrotech's your book! If that last sentence offended you, then, uh, maybe not. (Full disclosure: I stole the word "fuckingly" from my absolute favourite line from Necrotech). In a way, that's kind of all I need to ...

    I have a lot of complicated feelings about NaNoWriMo. First, a caveat: I have participated in NaNo more or less yearly since ... 2007, I think. So I'm a bit of a cagey vet at this point. And, yes, I have met the 50,000 word goal a few times, but I definit...
