A day of parts

[rolanni]

Slept in, did some brainstorming with Steve, and worked some more on the Carousel Tides site, which  has had a very short character list and a sample chapter added to its charms, as well as a countdown-to-publication meter.  Feel free to go over and take a look, but do remember that it’s a work in progress.

I’m getting ready to knock off for the evening, feeling very much as if I’ve had a lovely, productive weekend, where I learned some new things and wasn’t rushed or harried, so — a success.

Tomorrow, so I hear, is Monday.  Too bad about that.

I didn't think I called you one, I called _her_ one. YOU don't copy other people's words VERBATIM as if they were your own and link to every page on a website without so much as a by your leave! She did both. YOU know about copyright. She doesn't understand copyright at all, nor trademarks nor any of that stuff and has no comprehension what so ever about "fair use" of anything she finds on the web, copyrighted or not!

I have a hard enough time just keeping one website and occasionally visiting a handful of others. I just fail to understand why you might need so many blogs. I'd have thought one for you, one for Kinzel and one website for the business would be plenty and you couldn't possibly keep up with very much more. Not and write so as to make a living over and above the day job. After all, there's also Binjalis on Baen's website and the Theo Waitley community on Live Journal for you to keep up with, too. And what was that other? Ne'ermind: I forgot.

If you still believe I called you an idiot, I'll be delighted to prune my URL list and never, ever, EVER come near you again, nor purchase or recommend to a friend any written works by Lee & Miller: chapbook, hardback, paperback, e-book, or _any_ other iteration. Even used.

Ah. I'm only on the approach to idiocy, and the juxtaposition of an unethical idiot who does not know the value and meaning of copyright in your first post is simply an unfortunate accident of grammar. I understand.

So many websites, so little time. One needs to filter and be selective. It's a common problem.

I just fail to understand why you might need so many blogs.

Then it's fortunate that you're not running my business or the promotion for my books. I've explained the reason for this new website as much as I care to do and I do not owe you -- or anyone else -- a point-by-point review of my life-plans. I'm doing this because I want to is a Perfectly Valid Reason.

Your complaint seems to rest on the very real consideration that you don't have time to read all the blogs on the internet. No one is making you read any of them. You are free, as you say below, to prune your reading list. I prune my reading list constantly.

Also don't like to be threatened. My, what a contrary woman I am. You will of course do exactly as you please.
