I’ve gotten a little design-giddy in the last couple of days, and this morning I redid Riverglen Press:
Better, I think. :) …
One of my friends once said to me, “You know, chick flicks are more science fiction than science fiction.” In a way, it’s true. But let’s not forget …
It’s way late and I really ought to be in bed, but I just got back from dinner at my family’s. But then again, I’ll be with them forever, …
9. Two updates
This half-hour a morning thing is working out quite well for writing this play. Last night I freewrote for twenty minutes to figure out where I’m going with it, …
10. Project Cymru
I’ve decided to call this Welsh Book of Mormon digitization endeavor “Project Cymru.” (Cymru is the Welsh word for Wales.) The funny thing is that the name …
It’s been a while since my last post about my job, so here’s an update on what’s been happening.
