Three things
An effort to get back into blogging after publishiung took up all my time.
I just stumbled onto a http://neekole.com/archives/2006/01/15/nicoles-five-the-debut/ wherein the blogger has forced herself to blog five things per day. Thoughts, reflections whatever. (One of those odd sites that come up in an obscure Google search). I thought that might be a way to make me do this more as well. I will only do three.
- Here are today’s three:
- I went to Chattacon this weekend as a dealer and panelist from Mount Zion Press. (Can you find my name on the page without using ctrl-f.) We only sold 5 copies, but the shaking hands and meeting small press folk was worth it. We were only there for Saturday, so we missed the schmoozing of the parties and Consuite. Mike and I are going to try for Hypericon in June and plan to stay at least one night.
- I currently have two stories submitted and am anxiously awaiting the rejection letters. One of the stories has been rejected several times, but doggonit, I think it’s a good un. I have about 3 or 4 other stories I need to finish and get into circulation as well. I’m reading Getting Things Done by David Allen, so maybe I’ll get them done soon.
- I have my Outlook at work set up to remind me to go home. Since I mostly work alone, it is highly likely I would just be trucking along and look up to realize I’m 20 minutes late leaving. Not a big deal, except my kids and wife all expect me home at 5:30ish.
See, there we go. Three things. Nothing terribly amazing or funny, or smart, or…crap why did I do that again. Oh yeah. I’ll start keeping a list on paper and only blog those brilliant thoughts you have when you’re far away from your computer.
‘Til tomorrow.








Congrats on Chattacon. And on selling your books: as Mimi said, 5 is better than none.
[I couldn't find your name, sorry; but maybe I don't know your real(pen?) name.]
Hope you went home on time!
Sorry. My momma named me Ryan and my last name is Shelton.
