I don’t wanna cause no fuss, but can I buy your Magic Bus?

So, today, I broke down and got a haircut. I told Ashley, the long-suffering and cheerful stylist who drew the short straw, that I was going to an anime convention. Reasonably enough, she gave me an anime haircut. Steve professes it very classy. I think it needs a couple of purple stripes.

Shorn, I descended upon the Hannaford to take on supplies and came home in an unexpectedly hot and bright solstice afternoon.

Today, I have upload to Smashwords Calamity’s Child, Quiet Magic, and The Naming of Kinzel.  Books awaiting transmogrification are:  The Tomorrow Log, Endeavors of Will, and TimeRags II.

Once again, these books do take a while to go through the Smashwords’ Premium Catalog process.  Eventually — note this very important word — Eventually, I say, all Miller-and-Lee chapbooks, plus The Tomorrow Log will be available in the Apple Store, in the Sony Store, in the Kobo Store, and in places like Scrollmotion and Diesel.

Jeff VanderMeer of Underland Press is building a book to be entitled If You Lived Here and is soliciting nominations of readers’ most beloved Science Fiction and Fantasy universe.  (Why, yes, the Liaden Universe® is eligible for nomination.)  You may nominate up to three worlds, science fiction and/or fantasy.  Be warned!  This is an essay test — you have to explain why you love and would want to live in each world that you nominate.

Fans of Mozart take note:  He’s a little under the weather today; we administered pain meds and he perked up enough to have something to eat — wet food this time, thank ghod.  He’d thank all of you for your concern and good wishes, if he wasn’t, yanno, a cat, so I thank you in his stead.

And now, having done work, and achieved anime hair, I’m outta here, for tomorrow?  Is Wednesday and I must go to school.

Wow. I'm imagining the hair gently swirling, then standing up and waving little tentacles of itself... oh, anime! Not animated. But I like the idea of animated hair.

Pictures? Or if it is animated, how about a movie? YouTube! Yes, a true depiction of a writer hard at work... 15 Minutes of Silence. Listen to the gentle clicking of the keys, and the occasional muttering. Listen to the cat snoozing.

It will be a real winner!

After the day job ends, make with the purple streaks!

I've seen Special Effects highly recommended over Manic Panic.

Looking forward to the anime hair.

Good Health Meows to Mozart

I hope that Mozart is feeling all better soon. My Bella has also been very under the weather. She might have eaten something out in the yard that disagreed with her. Dogs are prone to doing stuff like that unfortunately. She had to be at the Best Friends clinic for almost a week being treated. This is since I am not at all medical and can't give the kind of treatments she needed myself.
She is also not eating the way she should but I think improving. Best positive thoughts appreciated.

Can you send us a photo of the anime haircut?
C. Gus, and the rest of the gang

Purple makes everything better.

This from the woman who got wall-to-wall purple carpet in her first condo and got razzed royally for it. I didn't care. It was a neutral purple, kinda like Grape Knee High soda.

Rock on - new haircuts are always fun.

Thanks for the heads up on the contest, I will spread the word.
