The turtle has decided to examine the world of twitter. This may come as a surprise to many, as it is generally well known that the turtle does not walk the path of the cellphone. However, many interesting people and things seem to be appearing on twitter, including Mr. Gaiman, Mr. Reznor and a 140 character fiction publication called Thaumatrope that has been publishing some stories by the ubercool ...

Hey, folks.  Just a quick post about some shiny.  The new (and unfortunately last) issue of Southern Fried Weirdness Online is up.  It is a sharp offing from our bud and editor grande   southernweirdo  .  Also,   mariness   and I are sharing a TOC, which is cool.  And her story "Planting" is way cool--even better!  Here's a link to some awesomeness: http://www.southernfriedweirdness...

Had a nice time running around the burbs with Noel today, it was not only above freezing, but actually above FIFTY today! Ahhh, it was so nice being warm again!

So, I’m changing this meme to 10 things I’ve imagined doing, but not actually done, and the context I’ve done them. Flown through the air under my own power. (Dreams, day dreams, super hero games. Fought and killed a dragon. (D&D games, World of Warcraft) Commanded a starship...

Now that the dust has settled and America's great biracial hope President Obama is safely esconced in the White House, we can reflect on the whole process of inauguration and clarify any unanswered questions. In the latest National Geographic, copies of which keep appearing in mailbox despite my gift subscription having expired late 2008, there's an interesting feature on behind-the-scenes at the...

- MLK would have been 80 yesterday. I wonder what would have been were he not assassinated. - Channel 10 is using a CBS News feed, Channel 7 with MSNBC (conveniently covered with a 7 logo), and Nine appears to using their own footage, as far as I can tell. All the commentary is equally annoying, so I'm flicking between channels. - The commentators just talked right through the introduction of Michelle...

Just thought I'd give you a little stuff(ing) that's not a Twitter update... Big welcome to brigidsblest and mariness , two newcomers to my flist and both to be published by Morrigan Books later this year! We've now got all the names for The Phantom Queen Awakes and it's just a case of awaiting confirmation that names are spelled correctly and that they are happy how they are...
