What is this?

Like the crazy french chef on Disney’s The Little Mermaid, I stare at my firefox toolbar and say, “What, is this?!” “Post to blog” it says. What is this program? I must test it out! It’s called Adobe Contribute, and it was so easy to set up a post without going into my actual website! What a lot of work! Haha, what a load off my back. No more writing my webname (or clicking on my bookmark), laboriously writing in my clever and savvy login name and password, and then clicking tabs and buttons on the admin panel! No! Adobe has made it easier! I just had to fill in a few boxes (and a couple I guessed on) and here I am! Posting! OMG!

Phew, just a minute, I have the vapors.

Ok, I think I’m better now. Let’s see if it works! Bosun! Haul in the anchor! We’re going out with the tide! Heave Ho, Sailors!

This is kinda cool. I am checking out a new adobe product (well, new to me) and it’s kinda neato. Isn’t this little kitty cute?

Aha! Caught you!

Ok, I found one problem. The tags get posted to the top of the blog entry, which looks really tacky! So I won’t be adding tags, damn it all, anyway. Why isn’t anything perfect?

Authonomy

Authonomy is a website I found last night. It’s been around longer than that, of course, but I was instantly smitten. It’s a place for writers to upload their books, but they only become public once you have 10k words or more. Also, every month the top five rated books go to the editors desk of Harper Collins International. This doesn’t mean they all get published, but they get looked at. To top that off, there are other editors cruising that site for good books. Quite a few people have gotten calls from publishers like Avon. One that I know of has never submitted a query to an agent or any publisher, was called by Avon because of her book on Authonomy, and now has a three book deal with them. How is that for cool?

They recently opened a site for young writers called inkpop.com which I will be taking a look at and pointing it out to Yvonne in the coming weeks.

Now, I just have to find time between baby, homework, and grading to actually start writing. Makes me wish I didn’t need sleep, I tell you what.

I just thought I’d share. Dee said I was lost to him last night, and kept asking me if I was done cumming. He’s so uncouth. It wasn’t like that, but he wouldn’t believe me. Of course, at one point he looked over my shoulder and couldn’t believe I was reading their FAQ. I like to read FAQs. However, I was upset that in my perusal I found two errors. I wish I could edit them. :) Anyway, I encourage all my fellow literary nuts who write books to become members and submit. You get good feedback (I have yet to see any bad feedback). If you just read books, become a member! You can be a top talent spotter. You can help new writers gain a following before they even become published. You can help people polish their books.

You’d think I work for them with that spiel, wouldn’t you? I don’t though. Dammit.

A Poem-thing. A Tanka? I dunno

Going on Vacation this Saturday, really can not wait.  I hope we have a good time.  I’m upset that I’ll miss Jenai’s cooking. :(

Super Happy Fun Post!

Thanks to Jeff Garr, I am being forced to post a blog daily. I decided to take this blog out and dust it off. This will be the most attention it has ever received. It is all a quiver with anticipation. This blog will feel caressed by my words, teased by my softly spoken phrases, and forever grateful for my presence. Then, I will leave it. As I have left it before, destitute and bereft.

It will wonder, why? What is wrong with me? And I’ll say, “It’s not me. It’s you. I don’t like you as much as I pretended. I was only using you, because you are so easy.

“Slut.”
