As a former book addict, I couldn’t walk into a bookstore without buying SOMETHING. I now tell myself, “Books are not trophies.”

I’ve done it for free for about 18 months now, and counting.
A++ would quit again

I attended my first Star Trek convention in 1976, and I’ve pretty much left all social media sites, fan sites, don’t go to large conventions any more, and just enjoy my likes and my dislikes on my living room couch or at drastically smaller conventions.
People will always want to go to SDCC with 100,000 of their new…

He’s the Anti-PewDiePie.

They’re also releasing new series, including Tidying Up with Marie Kondo and Carmen Sandiego

I’ve used Scrivener for years, to plan my mystery novels, and I’m sure I’m still just scraping the surface of what’s available to me. For day to day writing, I use FocusWriter, themed to look like my old WordStar and toggled to make typewriter sounds, and I’m happy and productive as hell. Copy and past into Scrivener,…

You people and your thin little lines. GO BOLD. 1.0. Papermate Gel Pens because I can use them to refill my Pilot Dr. Grip, which is the choice for the man (or woman) who wants something with some girth and some heft and some comfort.
