Had a pretty good writing day today.  Not so much with the actual typing and producing of pages (though I did more than my day’s quota of that, too), but with that other part of writing—the part that involves pacing, muttering, and staring at the ceiling fan for hours on end. 

That is to say, the hard part.  Which is also, on good days, the really fun part.

…definitely check out this week’s Sword and Laser podcast!

I had the great pleasure of chatting with Tom Merritt and Veronica Belmont over Skype last night.  Tom and Veronica are the mad geniuses behind the S&L podcast, and (as I mentioned previously) they kindly chose Bitter Seeds as their most recent reading selection.

The full episode is here.  Hear me babble nonsensically for minutes on end!

I’m a little bit surprised that I missed this yesterday.  And that, in fact, I’d never heard of Towel Day until late yesterday.  Not that I would have been inclined to take a towel and bathrobe to work — I’m not much for costumes, not to mention a day job that would frown on such things anyway.  But I still think it’s cool that people are remembering Douglas Adams. 

Okay, some of these items are over a month old, but I do loves me some cephalopods.  And besides, when the octopus revolution happens (and it will) we’ll have to know everything we can about our new masters.

Tool use, theft, and a crooked fight, all below the cut.
