Thursday, April 27th, 2006

I can’t verbalise my lack of anything useful to say tonight. I’ve done stuff. There you go. Isn’t that just so interesting? So I’ll leave you with this: sometimes a site pops up in a search that you just were not expecting. I really wasn’t expecting this http://www.fishbase.org/.

Blame Kim!

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

Kim has been putting the metaphorical thumbscrews on at the writing group we go to for us all to submit our work to be publishers. She has a quite lurid turn of phrase for it I won’t use on a public blog because it would attract completely the wrong kind of search results from web […]

Too Busy for a Witty Title

Saturday, April 22nd, 2006

I’ve had a pretty productive day. Got up this morning knocked off about half of a section of my new web site showcasing my old web sites. Covered all the personal ones I just need to dig out pictures of the work ones now. The ones that are still under way will be easy but […]

So this is how Treachery Feels?

Friday, April 21st, 2006

I signed up a Live Journal account today just so I could leave a comment on a friend’s journal. Then I did a quiz and it gives me this result… You scored as The Treacherous Mastermind. You are Arvin Sloane from Alias a devious double crossing mastermind. You have betrayed everyone you have ever known, […]

Fairy Tale about to go Distinctly Dark

Thursday, April 20th, 2006

Well my protagonist (calling a noir detective a hero just doesn’t seem right somehow) is about to enter the land of the flower fairies. Which is going distinctly dark and treacherous on him.
