Realm of the InterNutter

Thoughts, stories and ideas.

A polite request

I’m trying to raise some moneys for my next trip to Thailand [ticket price $2500] by selling my written works on/via Smashwords.

They need covers.

I have the artistic skill of a distantly-deceased moose.

So. Therefore, I must ask kindly for someone to design front covers for RTFM, Nor Gloom of Night and perhaps Good Boy if I can get it somewhere where I like it a bit better.

I might even publish a fantasy story I’ve had on the backburner for a while, called Of Cats and Kings. It’s basically a rewrite of Puss in Boots from the POV of the cat.

Want to see it? I’ll be posting it tomorrow.

Covers need to feature my pen name [C M Weller] and the title. The recommended size for the cover image is 1600 pixels wide by 2400 tall. I’m guessing it also helps if the artwork is also interesting without being spoileriffic.

And considering that these are all short tales [maybe not with Good Boy after I’ve rewritten it…] this may be something of a challenge.

As I am currently skint, the only thing I can offer is credit where credit is due. Links to art sharing accounts can be discussed.

Thanks in advance for your time, effort and understanding.

Like, follow and reblog if you dislike follow-trolls, like-whores and reblog monkeys

It’s the Tumblr bestiary and it’s right under the cut.

I’ve noticed a few trends with Tumblr of late, and these are the three that get on my pecs the most.

Follow-Troll

This blogger used to say insightful things. Or post lots of images that just plain made your day. You scoped out their whole blog, which was also loaded with insightful wisdom. For a few weeks, your life is made better by their insights.

Threat of the MathMagician [OR: Are you smarter than an Australian 5th-grader?]

Here it is! The link is to the zip file and should instantly download. If it doesn’t, try right-clicking and select “save linked file as”.

This zip file contains information other than the map folder, which is clearly labeled. It was intended for teachers to use in classes, so teacher information is in its own folder. If you plan on using this as a single player,

I FINISHED!

I wrapped up the adventure map. I put the final punctuation mark in the last in-game text file.

I’ve written the teacher’s supplements.

I’ve transformed the map from Creative to Survival.

I’ve included the map, the texts, the supplements, the specialised texture pack and some bits of trivia, and put it all into a 43MB package on a stick drive that is currently residing with my house keys.

Tomorrow, I deliver the whole benighted

What I’ve been doing all this time.

I have spent the last couple of months intensively building a map. Which I have now finished.

These are a few, choice pix of what I’ve been up to.

My map is called Threat of the MathMagician and will be released on the interwebs real soon now. I have to deliver a copy to Mayhem’s teacher, first, and then it’s out into the world.

I plan on

Poo bum wee

I just spent all day trying to come up with something clever and winding up with fail.

And then, to top it off, I tried to make Spore work on my Mac again.

I know there’s worse things to happen to people than spending all day on a computer, but… I was trying my hardest to be clever and the universe just kept on reminding me that I’m stupid.

I feel pretty damn worthless right now.

Okay, so I had an idea about White-CISMale supremacy...

…specifically in the area of sexual harassment.

I’ve been meddling with the idea for a few weeks, what with all the oppression stuff on my dash lately. It does require like-minded ladies to gang up for the duration.

It basically goes: (1) Pick a local-area douchebag (2) Literally treat him like a piece of meat.

On to the juicy details…

Come up with meat-related terms of endearment [eg: “cutlet”, “sausage”, “prime rib”

It's OK to trust in God...

You know damn well there’s a huge, neon rainbow “but” attached to that title.

It’s okay to trust in God (or the Higher Power of your choice)

BUT…

Trust, also, that God gave you brains to think with, ears to listen with, and eyes to see.

Any Higher Power worth the time/energy/effort of worship would know that a bunch of rules written down thousands of years ago may not hold as technology improves,

Angry blog entry is angry

Caution: spleen venting ahead. Beware of low-flying bile.

Hubby’s in the shits with me and vice versa. He’s in the shits with me because I refer to him for practically every last decision in and around the household, including the clothes and accessories I buy [which is shit difficult ‘cause I’m large all over].

I am in the shits with hubby because he essentially created this position.

What should be universal rights (and corollary responsibilities)

1) you have the right to feel good about yourself (and the responsibility of allowing others to feel good about themselves)

2) you have the right to express your views/opinions (and the responsibility of doing so in a calm and non-harmful manner)

3) you have the right to listen (and the responsibility of learning)

4) you have the right to defend yourself from harm (and the responsibility of helping others when they are harmed)

5) you have the right to chill

I thought I’d figured out how to use my thumb drive. Alas, I could only get a few pictures to the point where I can where them on the interwebs. I guess it sucks to be me.

These are some of my “first impressions” photos, when I nearly borked my iPhone battery by leaving it on so I could take a shitton of photos.

I was told pretty much all my life that Thailand was “dirty”
