……and we’re back! Sorry it took so long. This day went by like a blink. Sheesh. Anyhow, congratulations to Nancee, Becki and Tina. They were our three winners for Season 1 comps. All copies have been sent out, so please check your email inboxes. Also, mind your files. I was in a hurry when I built those, and “in a hurry” + .mobi = EXTREME potential for wonktastic files. I hope they’re fine, but if not, just yell. I’ll fix. Thanks, everyone, for entering. I will be back tomorrow to answer a Season Two question more than one entrant asked in the feedback section. Back to work!

I know I say this at least once a week, but how the heck did it get to be Wednesday already? (Yeah, I know. Just go with it.) Anyway, it was great to have Mr. Silver home over the long weekend. I got absolutely nothing done, of course, but still. Time to crank up Toys In The Attic and try to be as awesome as Tom Hamilton. (He’s Aerosmith’s bass player for everyone who just went “huh”?)

Update time. We’ve got two stories grinding their way gracelessly through the system. I haven’t yet got release dates. There’s suckage (not the fun kind) issues with one, continuity issues plus cover-art drama with the other. I do like to keep things simple. #side-eye As for Fantasy Heights Season Two, I’m taking some time to let the latter half of the season crystallize some more. We are currently fighting about how much POV-time Josh should get, and how weird it’s gonna be to split episodes between two POV characters whose story lines are so vastly different. (This is why we can’t have nice things.) Anyway. Coffee time! Have a great… Read More

Since it’s Friday and need a major escape from serious, I have to add this one. I don’t even know how to explain my love for this vlogger. Best I can manage is if Carol Burnett, Billie Piper and Cher Horowitz (from Clueless) had a love child, it would be this girl. I can’t believe out of all her many videos, this is the one I’m sharing. But since my stomach still aches from laughing at this last night, it’s going in with the other favorites. I defy you not to laugh at this.

You knew I couldn’t go long without posting another favorite. (Or another video.) This is a hybrid band – slash – side project between Disturbed and Evans Blue. I love the result.

So Emma asked yesterday what it’s like living apart from Mr. Silver after nineteen years of marriage. I wanted to scream IT SUCKS AND I HATE IT. But because I’m from Minnesota, I calmly said, “There are good days and bad days.” This weekend we definitely had “good days”. Mr. Silver was home for a visit, so things are a little brighter. Except he asked child #2 to mow the yard. Child did so while the dog was outside, and now the dog — who is the world’s most neurotic pointer — will no longer walk on the grass. This is making life interesting, as I’m sure you can imagine.… Read More

I’m really into this favorites groove, aren’t I? Here’s a bunch more that featured heavily into this past weekend. (Yeah, not found among the favorites were the Minnesota Vikings, but I prefer to pretend they’re not even a thing right now, mkay?) First, there’s this song: Then thanks to #grav3yardgirl, I discovered this tea. Oh… my… lo-werd it’s good. Aside from friends, decent tea is the one thing I miss most about living in the south. /nostalgic sigh This stuff pretty well makes up for it. And now it’s your turn. Keep me entertained today and tell me your favorite thing(s) from this weekend.
