Futurist: Blog

Well, the gardens I've put in over the last several years are awesome right now. We've got tulips, daffodils, irises, primrose, colombines, clematis, anemone, foam flower all blooming.

But I've been breaking sod on a new vegetable garden (about 300sq feet) and its slow backbreaking work. Turn the sod, build the planterbox, break up the sod (get the grass out of the dirt), amend the soil (add compost, manure, peat moss, etc), then, finally, you're ready to start planting. Want to finish this week. Writing suffers when I'm physically exhausted. Soon, I promise updates. :)

Thanks to all who correctly pointed out that Glock didn't make a handgun until the 1980s. I blame the mistake on an incorrect Wikipedia entry. :)

I really do try to research things that I didn't know back then. Also, thanks to David, who pointed out some errors in chapter 42-45.

A reminder, I post raw uneditted work for A/R/I, as it was my first story and I didn't know any editors when I started it. Further, at the time, I was convinced that the contreversial nature of the story would make it difficult for anyone to become associated with it.

Anyways, reposted chapter 42-45 with minor corrections, enjoy.

Haven't been able to write much this week, because until last night, I'd been averaging about 3 hours of sleep per night.

Ended up in Chapter 4. My editor cut it there intentionally, and upon reflection I agreed.

As I had promised, Chapter 45 of A/R/I is up, as is Chapter 4 of HPtSS.

Work in progress on chapter 5 of HPtSS and I think I'll finish the in progress chapter of SAOD and then move on to Chapter 46 of A/R/I.

Happy Easter everyone!

Stayed very busy working on finishing my basement remodel and building a new garden over the Easter weekend. Didn't get as much writing done as I had wanted to, but I did get some done.

Reposting chapter 2 of Harry Potter: the Spectacular Spiderman, and adding chapter 3. A/R/I chapter 45 is in progress, as is chapter 4 of HPtSS.

Crap! Chapter 3 got cut short somewhere in the edit process. I will repost it as soon as I figure out what happened.

It isn't coming easily so far, but hopefully I'm gaining some momentum. I turned over another chapter of HP:tSS to my editors and I'm going to be posting a chapter of a/r/i today or tomorrow.
