Inuit and I are watching The Playoffs together, and shaking our heads. We are surprised anyone is shocked that the Miami Heat got eliminated in the first round. Obviously, none of those people who were shocked watched the opening game of the season where the Chicago Bulls dusted the Heat … Continue reading →
Sure, it’s Saturday. This is a test run for Holly Lisle’s Friday Snippets for Everyone posting. This is one I don’t think I’ve posted here before — the opening of Twilight (at least, not this version). This novel needs major work, but this, for the moment, is how it starts: … Continue reading →
That went smoothly. If you notice any glitches, please leave me a note (assuming you can), but I think we’ve successfully transitioned to our new host. Anybody know how to dispense with those odd characters on the old posts?

I made it to Memphis, walked to the earlier flight, which was thoroughly booked. A co-worker traveling for business got bumped to … Continue reading →
Today, I fly home to Texas for a week. Weeks ago, I purchased a ticket for oh-dark-thirty.
