She hobbled to the door. A young man was there.
"Pardon me," he said. "Did you call for some help?"
He handed her the paperwork from the agency.
"Bless me, why yes!" she said, delighted. She put her glasses on and peered at the paperwork. "Mr. Thyme, is it?"
"You can call me Justin." (2/2)

Martha had become practically an in her home. She looked at three days worth of dirty dishes piled up in the sink and dreaded standing at the sink to wash them. She had called a service for help, but no-one had come.
She was just about to start when the doorbell rang. (1/2)

Being a Republican Congressman currently only requires a working mouth. And kneepads.

MC POV: Do you believe in romantic love?

After a moment, Words put his mouth close to Revin's ear and whispered, "I love you, Revin. I've always loved you."
"But… But…" Revin stammered.
Words kissed him again. Revin was hesitant, but after a moment began to kiss him back.
"I've always loved you too," Revin said hoarsely, once they had separated. "I told you so when I was drunk. And then I said I didn't remember… but I was lying."

"I want something different for dinner," Booboo said.
"Are you asking me out on a date?" Zsazsa asked, archly.
"That's a great idea!" Booboo said. "What are you in the mood for?"
"How about something… refined," Zsazsa said.
"I know just the place! How about Borb's Burger Buffet?" Booboo said.
"What?"
"Yeah!" Booboo gushed. "They have all kinds of burgers! I'll bet some are 'refined.'"
"What are you willing to bet?"
"Anything!"
"Alright, darling," Zsazsa purred. "It's a bet."

The university has delayed opening until 11:30am this morning. The weather can't make up its mind and is doing a little bit of everything.

How do you organise your writing projects?

I use folders with text files for my "organizational" writing. That's where I make outlines and rough drafts. And all of the other "meta" writing of publishing (taglines, synopses, cover letters, etc.)

For actual writing, these days, I often write directly in Google Docs. Eventually, that's where my finished manuscripts end up. It makes it easy to share drafts with beta readers to get comments.

I tried Scrivener, but I use Linux.

The men grinned. They trusted the Baron to lead them to victory.
"Updraft! I want you to lead the infantry assault here."
"Yessir!"
"Sparks! Once the infantry have created an opening, take your cavalry through to occupy these two crossroads and cut supply."
Sparks saluted.
"Now, move!" (2/2)

The Baron stood in his field tent surrounded by his officers.
"They have fortifications here and here," he said, indicating marks with his finger on the big map sitting on the table. But note the distance between this unit and the ones on either side. We can this weakness." (1/2)

Do you belong to any writing organizations? Are they helpful?

I belong to the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association (SFWA) and serve as Secretary. I also belong to a regional writing group, the Straw Dog Writers Guild. These have both been very helpful to me in terms of networking and learning the business and craft sides of authorship. I've thought about joining the Authors Guild and the Alliance of Independent Authors. And Lambda Literary. I believe in organizing.

Mon, 02/10/2025 - 21:24

They landed in the Capital's aerodrome before sunrise where a coach was on hand for the Baron and carried them to the palace of Ravensbelth. Cecelia had never been to the Capital before and looked eagerly out the windows of the coach at the deserted streets. Ravensbelth was dark and foreboding as they arrived: a huge palace behind high stone walls, with many gables, towers, spires, and turrets. With little fanfare they arrived at the business entrance.
