God help me. I have gone native. Today I had a craving for…deep-fried grit cakes. Don’t get me wrong. Can’t abide grits in standard grit form. But there is a local place called Lucky 32 that makes deep-fried grit cakes, smothered in tasso ham with this garlic cream sauce and fried onions that makes my […]

Where does the day go? My god, I’m self-employed and I run out of time running errands and answering e-mail! How do people with real jobs manage? No wonder our society is overstressed and overmedicated… Also, Angus has apparently gone mad and is trying to make my skirt wrestle with him. With me in it.
Still foolin’ with the idea of perching fish…I feel like these are going somewhere, I just don’t quite know where yet. Bear with me! Moor on a Wire
The Kirkus review is in and…err… …they liked it. The Review:A reclusive young shrew develops a taste for adventure in this short,witty debut. With the example of his long-absent grandmother Surka-“afighter, a dishwasher, and a pirate queen”-before him, little Nurkstocks up an empty shell he calls the Snailboat and sets off downriverin response to a […]
I woke up in the middle of the night t’other night with visions of…well…this. Orandas on a Wire Original is for sale. ($180. I might as well stop being coy with the prices…saves me e-mail…)
Man, I am getting some really cool entries in for the wallpaper contest! A…lot…of really cool entries. Judging these is gonna be a stone bitch. So far the suggestions are “set up a poll” and “get really loaded and go through ’em all.” Both have their merits…
*cue a Who song. Any Who song.* Okay, gang, time to harness your mental powers. We have a murder mystery on our hands, and birding may be involved. My father called me up today to ask me to lay a question before me. Xena, a venerable toy poodle belonging to my stepmother, was killed last […]
Okay…here’s a very silly idea, but what the heck. People keep suggesting silly contests. Thinking of offering some free wallpapers for downloads, and I’m not that good at design. Also, I have 24 author copies, and even after I give them to all my relatives and donate a couple to libraries, I’m suspect I’m still […]
Say, does anybody know anything about “MyPSPtubes.com” as a licensing group? They’ve been sending me some e-mails that they get requests, and it’d be nice to actually make a profit off the tubing thing…
I was in the vague hinterlands of sleep–mmm, I could get up, but I don’t wanna, maybe if I snuggle up to the warm thing* in the bed I can fall back asleep, sleep is gooooood, it can’t be that late, the alarm hasn’t gone off, will it go off? it’s a new alarm clock […]
