Twittery for Writers
A couple of months ago, when my blogging mentors recommended that we bloggers-in-training join Twitter, I signed up with doubts.
It’s for kids.
It’s for kids who text on Blackberries.
It’s a time suck.
“What I’m doing” is nobody’s beeswax!
It’s where “posts” are “Tweets.” And I’m a “Tweeple” identified with an @ sign in front of my name. And [...]
Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( 1 so far )Slow and steady
My other blog is almost five months old now. That’s pretty good, since I wasn’t going to get it online until after November.
It doesn’t have a lot of readers yet, but the readers I have enjoy it. Some of them “don’t read other blogs,” as they tell me via email. And they don’t know how to [...]
A New Start to the Day
This is how my mornings used to start.
Around dawn, Max the cat would come get me. He would whimper or meow. Or knock knick-knacks off the dresser. Or chase one of the other cats in a hissing screaming yowl down the hall.
So, I’d get up but not be able to go back to sleep. I [...]
Joining the Equus Posse
Yes, I’ve joined the bajillion newsies making bad puns about Daniel Radcliffe (yes, Harry Potter) soon to appear nude on Broadway in Equus.
Not only that, I’ve bought tickets, too. I go in late October.
I’m a little suprised that I did. I had considered the ballyhooed nude scene So Much Hype. So many young stars decide [...]
FTP Follies – learning as I go
I’ve neglected this blog as I wrap up BISW (or, more accurately, Book in Eight Weeks) and fine-tune the look on The Horsey Set Net .
I think I got about 64 additional pages done on BISW. Not exactly a book, but it’s good progress and I forged ahead into the dreaded Act III. I now [...]
Fadtastic Blog Renovations
Yes, I’ve re-decorated the blog.
Actually, I’m trying out this WordPress theme. It’s called Fadtastic, and it’s one of the free themes. Once I get my horse blog up, I plan to use this theme until I can afford some blog-designing artiste to wave the magic mouse and transform it into a unique virtual place.
Until then, [...]
Confessions of an Occasional Blogger
I seem to be falling behind with this blogging thing. My last entry was three weeks ago. Uh oh.
However, the novel I’m writing is making excellent progress. I have no idea how authors, especially those with the book-a-year contract, juggle both. The longer I do this, the more impressed I am with that end product, [...]
WordPress Changes
I know it’s been a few days since I blogged, but dang! I come back to tap out some posts and see that my Dashboard looks different. I feel like Rip Van Winkle waking up — and missing his 8-track when everyone else is wearing an iPod.
Come to find out, I haven’t posted for ten [...]
RSS to the Rescue?
Photo by Rhonda Lane
I try to keep up with my favorite blogs but it can be tough. Real Life gets in the way of Virtual Life.
So, it’s RSS to the rescue. Because I don’t check my Google and Yahoo accounts often, I have it sent to my main email. Apparently not all blogs do that. [...]
