Graded hate mail for October 13. Jay writes: So it’s going on 5 months since the last installment. What’s the deal? I get the feeling that you’re becoming as bored with this story as I have been over the last several chapters. Why not just tell us who the wife is and put this thing out of [...]

Life in POD-land

Yes, I’m still alive. No, I haven’t succumbed to a recurrence of tonsillitis. No, I haven’t fallen off the face of the Earth. And no, I haven’t joined the TSA. (I don’t meet their standards, since I have a basic amount of common sense. I don’t drag my knuckles or wear jackboots either, but I [...]

I’m not dead yet!

Actually, I’m feeling a lot better. Finally! My tonsils hurt for nearly a week after the shot of antibiotics. I pretty much lived on milkshakes and grilled cheese, and not much of either. The silver lining is that I lost almost 10 lbs. I wouldn’t recommend it as a diet plan, though. I still didn’t talk [...]

Gulp… wince

A really quick update… I thought I had the flu, but it turns out I don’t. I have tonsillitis instead. Jesu, joy of man’s desiring! At least it explains why my throat hurts like hell. Fortunately, the doc gave me a shot in the office (well, that’s not really where he stuck me, but you get the [...]

I’ve actually had more time to write lately. I’ve also had the motivation, which is even better. Now, I don’t think I’ll ever get back to the 2,000 words a day of Book 1, but I’m pretty happy with my pace lately (~800 words a day). Anyway, I started a long blog post a couple of [...]

Social Distortion

My business partner is an only child. On top of that, he’s an only child of older parents. His parents both worked when he was growing up, so he spent a lot of time alone. And when they did spend time with him, they tried to make up for it by lavishing attention on him. So [...]

Dealing with critics.

Nick Scipio — Wed, 28 May 2008 21:59:41 +0000

Someone recently commented on my last blog post, and I started to write a reply. But then I thought about it. I didn’t want my reply to get buried as comment #63, so I decided to kick it to the top of the blog with a main post. If you’d like, you can read the original [...]
