No, search engine, you may not have my location. I need this answer for writer reasons. Not because I need to know what restaurant oil tank pickup services are available in my area. 🙄

This is the longest I've ever owned a phone and they've got the temerity to keep jacking prices up and complain no one's buying.
Of course I'm not buying. You've squeezed all the water you can out of this stone. 🙄

If you're planning on shopping during black Friday or cyber Monday, why not consider supporting artists, writers, creators? Buy a book, purchase an indie video game, commission an art piece, gift someone a Patreon. Your support means everything.

Instead of spending more money on a machine that is in no danger of turning a profit ... ever ... why not ... develop clocks for cats?

Regarding the last repost, it would be kind of silly for them to ask if I was still doing that writing thing considering I just sent everyone copies of the latest. They've been very supportive. 😹

Could be you're not sure what happens next in the story or you're not feeling what you'd planned and can't see a way through. I keep multiple projects running so I can take a "break" on one project by writing on another.
Your brain might have too much going on because of life. Take a break. 😻

I think the thing about writing books that annoys me is that you have to keep relearning how to write them. Each book is different and asks different things of you. You have to keep growing and shit.

Microsoft keeps trying to force me over to the new, fake Outlook. Hopefully, they enjoy the increasingly frustrated feedback I'm writing them each time they do this.

It turns out if I'm already unimpressed by a company, hearing that they're getting involved in Agentic "AI" doesn't improve my opinion of them. In fact, close study of the data suggests it may actually worsen my opinion of them. 😹

Ad-hoc-ing my way to a Friday playlist. It's a rainy day and the mood has been established by Yesterday (by The Beatles).
