don't have much to say today. just been tooling around the ole internet trying to take care of pesky little details.

finally got the ads up at the site. ooo, i hate to use them, but we'll see if they'll bring some much needed revenue.

saffy and i have decided to do a featured author in the glorious pages of Chick Flicks. I'm excited that Alison Davies will be our first. She's a very talented girl, with some great, often disturbing insights.

i've been a little slack on editing her book, but she's a sweetie and very forgiving. the whole world should be as nice and laid back, we'd have a lot less mess.(ugh, don't wanna get started on that)

at any rate, i hope to get some writing, if not editing done today. look for a few more places to tell me "hell no" it's all a part of the game, eh?

i'm terribly behind on my reading and critiquing. gotta catch up on that sometime. i need just a few more hours each day. people are pulling at me from all directions and my arms are getting tired(now, if they'd only get thinner)

i keep going over the southern horror story in my head. i have the southern part down, but i suck at horror. i'm thinking of going a different direction. i've started it once, but i don't like it, it feels kind of stiff for one of my southern narrator tales. i usually use a male character(i have such a strong male side)but i think i'm gonna switch gears and give a girl a try.

still not happy with my Of Hotdogs and Strippers, a day in the life of story. don't like the beginning, it feels too canned. need to be a little more natural. where's a stinkin valium when you need it? i should probably just step outside in the 90 degree heat(it's only May for God's sake!) and i'm sure that will bring my laid back southern laziness to the forefront. i mean, that's why we sound like mush mouths, it's just too damn hot to say a whole word.

ok, saffy, here's your sunset, as seen through the trees out back of my house. i could only see a dots worth, hold a dime out arm's length and that's just about all i saw. first it was yellow, 30 secs later, it turned a nice deep orange. 30 secs after that, a beautiful soft orangey pink. then 30 secs later, a nice medium blue/purple, before the light went completely out and turned to dark.

have a good day, one and all!
