DISQUS

In addition (and I commented on his post; funny, isn't it, that those aren't publicly-viewable?), while I understand, say, leaving a copy of a message in your friend's Facebook inbox, I can't see the point to indefinitely archiving photos, etc. At the very least, why can't they, say, enable Creative Commons licensing on photos as Flickr does?

Thanks, Felicia!

Hey Felicia! Just Twittered to you about this, but there is an amazing online setup through eJunkie that will handle all of this for you -- and I do mean ALL of it. Feel free to email me for the details...after many moons of driving my post office crazy, I think I've finally found a solution that really works.

I look forward to crashing your server with impunity! (Damn. Too bad I'm not going to ComicCon this week after all... you know all too well I'd be hauling along the videocamera and hook/needles -- how cool would it be to teach him to crochet or knit? Now THAT is what the League needs to do...)

Keep it up with this series, Kim! ;) = you know why. As someone whose opinion I very much respect on such things, it's great to hear a little more about your process. After all, there is no such thing as Editor School. (Funny, isn't it? Writing programs are a dime a dozen but editing always seems to be a learn-on-the-job thing).

Geekiness is awesome. That is all.

Ok, here we go -- the worst reviews I can find of my books on Amazon are 2, 2-star reviews for Spin to Knit:

By Susan Harelson "sdharelson" (Loveland, CO USA)

I've just started spinning with a drop spindle, with information I found on various websites. I got this book hoping it would add to that knowledge. I haven't found anything here that I haven't found for free, in more detail, elsewhere. I would hope that the art would be higher quality, but there were several of the knit projects that only had one photo, from one angle, with no diagrams or further explanations on how to put them together. I had much higher expectations.

I am both a crocheter and knitter and have recently started spinning. I was rather disappointed by the fact that although the name would lead you to believe the book has a great deal of spinning instruction, the reality is that it is mostly knitting patterns worked with homespun which was produced by many different people and little to no instruction as to how to produce similar yarn yourself.


I AM SO DISAPPOINTING! Ha ha ha. Whatever.

I like green greenrooms. It appeals to my logical side...

Beyond gorgeous! You've officially given me the needed kick in the pants to finish mine...

me and you and jillian with the comics this summer! sheesh! (she's got all my "y: the last man" trades right now...)

Yay! In other news, it's Joss Whedon's birthday today. FYI. Too bad the Vancouver event is sold out...

Awww! Cleo! I love that look on her face.

Wonder why it doesn't thunder -- any ideas?

Or spinning. That'd be good, too. ;)

I don't. That rotten little bastard of a function failed HARDCORE on me this weekend and now I have to compare two different versions of a book manuscript side by side in order to make sure to get all the editor's decisions on me vs. tech editor vs. copyeditor's various questions.

Not that I am bitter or anything. Ha!

I think "track changes" does not like being passed among multiple computers, I really don't -- especially when going twixt Mac and PCs...

So I will come home from my parents' house tomorrow, chock full of holiday yummies, and sit down to some track-changes-caused tedium. Double words all over the place -- ugh. Everywhere the copyeditor changed case on a word, it's now double. Likelike thisThis. GRRR. Hulk smash!

Wow, you sure did! Looks adorable!
