August 2007

I came across this site at http://www.mywriterscircle.com/ pretty recently. I certainly don’t consider myself a serious author of any kind, don’t get me wrong, but there is a ton of information over at My Writer’s Circle for professional authors as well as dumb old bloggers like myself. It’s a place to chat and get together with other writers and pick their brains for questions about grammar, storylines and really anything that might have to do with writing. You can post samples of your writing for critique (but be aware that you will get critiqued!), get ideas for new stories or articles as well as poetry and screenplays.

Apparently the forum has been online for two years now and I have never been there. I suppose with all of the millions of web sites out there that is no mean fete but with all the message board traffic they have I would think it be be a lot more well known than it is.

As I mentioned above one of the boards is there so that you can have your work critiqued and judge other peoples stories as well. There is quite a bit of amateurish fluff, stuff that I would write but I did come across this little gem. I thought it was pretty good anyway. Go check it out and tell me what you think.

Yeah, it’s a bit later than I usually post it and I have a lot of catching up to do but for those two of you that follow this every week, here is this weeks photo from Malingering.

Technorati : Tramp Stamp Tuesday

That’s exactly what my computer has done. Crashed and burned. It rebooted in the middle of posting earlier, thus the entry without a title. I am in the process of moving about 80 GB of music onto a secondary hard drive right now prior to ghosting my main partition so that’s pretty much it for tonight unless I get it done quicker than I think I will.

Need to go find that Ghost floppy, I know it’s around here somewhere…

Normally Friday is Pizza Day here at the house. It’s usually a pretty busy day for me at work and leads into the weekend which is always extremely busy for me. The wife is tired from working all week and neither of us wants to cook. We used to order from Domino’s but for some reason they quit delivering on this side of town and now we get our pizza from Papa John’s. It’s still pretty good but definitely different. One thing about getting pizza is that it’s a bit expensive to have delivered. The nice thing is that I can order online and not having to deal with the phone at all. The only thing missing that I like about Domino’s is coupons. Looking around I found a place to get free online coupons that I can use with Papa John’s. Sweet. Just go to the Papa John’s Coupons page and find the coupon code you need and when you check out from the website enter the code. That’s about as easy as you can get and as lazy as I am some days easy is where it’s at!

They also have coupons for plenty of other places as well, everything from consumer electronics and software to clothing and furniture.
