Just a heads up, in case anyone cares. 9 chapters done (115,000 or so words), 5 chapters back from editing and after one final read through, ready to start posting. This one will be similar in nature to my Skyrim novel, in that I've taken the world created (and owned) by Bethesda and injected my own literary mods. I've tried to make it so that you don't have to be familiar with the Fallout universe to enjoy the book. I plan to start posting in a couple of weeks, then one chapter every week or so after that.
First, thanks to those of you who explained Libre Office and what it was doing. It makes sense, actually. You'd think that as a more than technical guy I would understand things like this without feeling like a dunce. Oh, well.
Second, new chapter posted. My first reader said I'm truly a nerd and also his hero, as everything I'm writing is, or could be, lore friendly to Skyrim. He'd been concerned when I brought things down to Cyrodiil.
Third, I wasn't feeling well and just stayed home and vegged on my days off this past week. Instead of writing, I decided to give an unmodified version of Fallout 4 another chance, maybe get a bunch of the achievements. In two days I racked up 12 hours of gameplay. To quote Martina, it's 'interesting'. I'm not sure I like it, and I probably won't continue playing it - if I were, say, 14 and had lots of free time, sure, not a problem. I'm not - if I'm lucky I get 2 hours of free time for game play a week.
Anyway, hope everyone is enjoying their summer. It's been right at or just over 100 degrees F every single day this week - and it's supposed to stay that way. Welcome to Oklahoma, right? :)
