Because I had geek envy, I upgraded my version of Movable Type. Thus far it looks like it was completely painless. Of course, I did RTFM first. 😉 Hopefully you won’t notice at all.

Brian migrated his site to Drupal. I have geek envy. If I had any content other than my blog, I’d consider migrating myself. Just for fun, you know. Because I want to play with the geek toy! But no. I’m sticking with Movable Type for now, because I’d...

I’ve been thinking about this lately because I just finished NaNoWriMo and am now working on a short story and the two of them just make me feel more aware of mechanics lately. I usually start with a setting or situation, and then have to find characters and a...

42,093 / 50,000 : 84.2% I have NaNoWriMo fatigue. I’m ready for this to be over. The question is whether I want to try to marathon extra words or just slow and steady finish the last 8,000 words over the next four days. We’ll see how I feel tomorrow, but I...

I’m at 33,717 words, but I also have a sick kitty. She’s our current Queen Kitty, and the other cats are worried. I completely blew off yesterday, and am having trouble talking myself into doing it today. I’ve been trying to do 2,000 words a day;...
