PLNs

A 521-post collection

Saturday, There Go My PLNs

I did have PLNs to go nowhere and do nothing BUT... we need eggs and there's a postal parcel mystery that I need to go to AusPost Norflakes to unriddle. So I have to go place and do thing to get stuff.

BLEH.

The lit agency with the shortest turnaround has decided to not want fantasy or scifi this fortnight. Three guesses which are my favourite fucking genres?

Yeah. I'm bitter this morrow.

Last night was very nice, and I discovered the appeal of... (drumroll) chicken hearts! They're very nice when slow cooked with garlic and oregano. I'm not under orders to get them immediately, but they are a relatively new source of cheap meat.

And no, our cats don't like them. Tried it once. The little criminals sniffed them once and left them alone. So it's also a food that they won't try to steal. Yay.

So a few seconds after I publish this, I am putting on clothes to go do thing at place.

Story happening after I get back.

Friday, PLNs for a Night Out

Adorable's having a bifdy! We're taking the whole fam out for some all-you-can-eat goodness, tonight. As a special bifdy treat, I shall not be asking how she's going with the audio recordings of A Devil's Tale.

Best to not be a pest on someone's birthday.

I am now the proud owner of a tempered glass monitor riser, which I am using as a cat-proof shield over my keyboard. It's a teeny bit short to type while it's over my keys, so I've

Thursday, Missions to Accomplish

I have to keep an eye on the time so I can take off with adequate minutes to make it to my physio. And from there on a brief expedition for stuff and things.

Very few stuff and things, thank grop. Things I can easily afford even if payday is a smidge tardy. Yay. With even space for a little treato for the trip home.

Huzzah.

I shall be attempting to write today's tale in the time I have left.

Wish me

Wednesday, Blog Day and Other Things

The car is getting serviced. Yay. It's going to CO$T. Boo. We have the money. Yay. But I also need to be able to hear the doorbell so I can't do any of the social calls on Discord with my fellow writers. Boo.

Win some, lose some.

I hope to get some screencaps with which I hope to settle some discourse over K-Pop Demon Hunters that's been going on.

Other than that, the usual nonsense shall be commencing shortly.

Tuesday, Patreon and Nonsense

I have recording to do, a video to arrange, the mandatory nonsense, and maybe half a chapter at some point.

I'm in a conference call with another writer's group. They like my nonsense so we're having a good old gasbag.

In betwixt chatting, I shall attempt to create fiction. I'll see how I go with that.

Story happening whenever I can wrangle that thing.

Monday, Backup Reads, Cyclone Headache, and Work Load

My head hurts, my ankle needs to be chilled every two hours, I posted my video, I have finished another chapter.

I have yet to think of what the living fuck I'm doing with the Archive prompt. I have the All Hallows Read idea to work on.

...I have fanfic ideas rattling in my head and clamouring for release...

And there's the usual shenanigans of the daily offerings.

I have no idea how or when it will all be done, but I

Saturday, Hairdressing and PLNs

We're getting our hair did at last. Yay. I don't know whether or not to get the undercut renewed just yet, but I do know that I have potential to write this year's All Hallows Read.

I might even get the day's tale done before it's time to turn up at the hairdresser's with my lovelies.

I have no idea what's going to stop me bar my own personal inertia.

Updates, if any, after they happen.

Thursday, Easing Off

I woke up at 2AM, this morning, but preferred to browse my phone rather than work on ADT. I might get a paragraph or two in, later today. I might not.

Shopping looms, but I can get away with waiting one more day for that achievement. Which also means I'll have more funds to fuel the foods.

I have a storytime video to arrange for tomorrow, the obligatory offerings, and figuring out what the hell I need to do to improve my

Sunday, Archive Session, Video Production, etc.

The Archive is going through some good stories and I'm in the queue. Yay.

I have a story to read for Peertube, and the video to arrange about that. I have a story to write for the temple of notes. Following that, I am allegedly a free agent.

Last time that happened, I went to bed at 3PM and wrote some fanfic at 8PM. And somehow woke up relatively late.

So... as per usual, I arrived to the Archive stream after my

Thursday, Physio Reschedule and Cunning PLNs

I forgot a few things during the shopping trip yesterday, and my Physio put me in an earlier schedule, so the PLN is to stop by Norflakes and pick them up there. After the Physio sesh of course.

Shouldn't take too long.

Of course, I'm making sure I'll get there early to give myself time to work on a chapter. Who knows? I might just write a chapter in one day [spoilers, I was awake at 3AM and decided to do some

Friday, Physio, Bread, and Leyland's Tour

I'm going off to have my heels hammered today. On the way back, I'm stopping at Costco, Dickson's, and Aldi. For a very pliable definition of "on the way back".

I'm also wrangling bread.

So today is definitely going to be "fun".

Added to this "fun" is the fact that Chaos' compy is not playing nice. I have to pack it up and haul it down to Adorable's tomorrow. Which means I'll also be packing up a cold pack, an ice brick,

Sunday, Archive Reads and PLNs

The Twitch channel AMothintheArchive is reading other writer's microfictions. I'm attending as normal.

Some time after Costco opens, I shall be offski on a rather urgent adventure since we're almost out of eggs. We're rather caning the supply.

I don't think I'm likely to go back to regular chain store eggs. Costco's are cheaper and more abundant. I'll also be picking up a few other things along the way because resupply seems to be my regular mission in life.

Meanwhile, I am

Thursday, Bread and Preparations

If I want to do double-loaf baking, I should start on Sunday so that I can have Thursday and Friday theoretically free for helping MeMum with whatever issues she's got.

I've backed up my GoogDrive and am pondering deleting everything on there. BUT I also need a peripatetic version for writing while roaming. Ellipsus doesn't seem to update cross-devices and that's a bit of a problem for me.

So I'll be looking for good file-sharing alternatives before I trash my GoogDrive. Ideally

Tuesday, Patreon and Urgent Shopping

I owe my patrons a few things, starting with the five chapters' audio I was trying to record when my tower borked in the first place.

I'll be recording those very, very soon.

The good news is that most of a chapter I was recording at implosion is still there! I just need to loop in half a sentence and then, as Jukebox the Ghost sang, I am off to the races.

I also need to go fetch a new cable to

Wednesday, Rant and Other Things

I am definitely doing a "Reasons To Love" this week. A total enthusiasm about season one is a bit overdue.

I am attempting to operate without the ankle brace, today. I have it nearby, just in case.

I've finished another five chapters of ADT so there's more recordings in my future. There's going to be one hell of an upload for Adorable when I have that avenue to share those things.

The longer it takes to stabilise that avenue of communication, the
