A 30-post collection

Okay. I've got this.

My car is officially out of commission even though it's technically driveable. The coolant leak is pretty fast and I don't want to be stuck in the middle of busy morning traffic with a non-functioning accelerator again.

That was hairy.

So I'm stealing my Beloved's landbarge for all my errand shenanigans. My car has an appointment in likely-early next week, and I was told to bring it in on Friday. It likely won't be fixed before Tuesday.

Ugh.

It's going to be expensive as hell, peeps.

Make no mistake, we can afford this, it's just... going to be real difficult for a patch.

Again.

I swear, there's some force in the universe that doesn't like me getting even the slightest bit ahead. I'll find out after Adapting is rejected literally everywhere, I guess. I mean. I don't have any other fully edited novels and... yeah.

Nothing else to sell, folks. Sigh. I need to sell big in order to afford an editor to go through everything else I've written in the intervening years, and I mean yikes, I write a lot.

A LOT.

You'd think someone with my output would be snapped up in a picosecond by whomever, but... nah. I don't know the right people, apparently. For every success story, there's someone with thousands of dollars to back it up in their friends-and-family circle. Especially in business. I'm pretty sure it holds true in writing as well. If I could meet/befriend the correct people...

Meh.

As long as you, my dear readers, share the love - I'm sure I'll be fine. Now I need some cheese to go with all this whine.

Father's Day

Or, as I would call it in the Amalgam Station Universe, Secpa's Day.

Since the household Secpa is asleep, and so are the kids, I get a little time to blog.

Economically, I'm not doing fantastic. I spent $15 out of my New Compy fund [to support Chaos' school], and only saved $5 this week. So now I'm $20 away from having $300 in cash.

Sigh.

I have $30 in my PayPal, $12 held by Smashwords, and almost $500 in my Dreams

We're muddling...

We're scraping by. We're pulling our heads in...

And managing to maintain the little treats that keep us sane.

Of course, it's a struggle that would be made easier by some funding by you, dear reader, but we're managing.

I kind of feel like we're dangling over a precipice by my fingernails, but that's probably me.

The big needs are waiting for another pay cycle. The Wants are in stasis. Not coming to fruition for the foreseeable future.

And I'm in a

Hello darkness my old friend…

Once again insomnia hits like a goddamn truck. Beloved has come home but not come to bed.

More work is happening on my site.

It hurts to lie in bed. It will hurt to get up. I know this because the soles of my feet ache, even now. And it’s cold beyond the doona.

It’s going to be a long and spoonless day. Please go to my Smashwords page:

YOOOOOOO!

This just in: Beloved is amazing.

I had a little baby breakdown about the impossibility of trying to break through the glass box that noob authors like me are stuck in. It involved lots of handflaps and raspberries if you’re interested.

Anyway, apparently I need a site so Google can find me. I mean, it can already find my shit on Smashwords and other fine e-Retailers… But this site will be completely different because… uh…

Actually I don’

T'reka just wanted to learn. Unfortunately for her, her entire species
views scientific thinking as a form of insanity. And when she wants to
learn all about the various venomous, poisonous, and outright deadly
life forms on a land mass named Toxic Island, you can almost see why.
Little did she know that when she committed her life to the study of
this strange and hostile land, there was already a colony of monsters
setting up housekeeping. Now she’s face-to-face

Health update

For my marvellous readers still with me, I have a news.

Neither good news, nor bad. Just news.

There is very little that medicine can do for my wrists. And also, very little that they can do for my heels.

The Spurs I have are a symptom rather than a cause. They show that I have ligaments that are pulling on the bottom of my heels.

All I can be done, in both cases, is the liberal application of anti-inflammation cream, and
