It's my birthday, and the new year is close, so I want to tell you the plan.
Winnipeg doesn't have an sff bookshop.
I have been, and I still am, looking for a location for one.
This bookshop will also be queer as fuck.

The weird things about the cybertruck I just saw were
1) it was shiny metallic gold
2) it actually had some stuff in its little cargo bed. Like they were pretending it’s actually a truck.

The outline for Spirit Blade is 13,300 words.
Okay. So odds are that this is going to be two books, tentatively "Spirit Blade" and "Sand and Cinnamon"
And so my plans for an urban fantasy trilogy begin to disintegrate before I even start writing book one!
We will see.

One of the many things that irritates me about monster-sized trucks is when they park right in front of a store and take up 2 spots. Even worse is when they park to take up 4 spots. Saw both today.

I did 6+ decades in the PNW, including many years as a contractor, living in raingear for months at a time. While I'll always love Washington, I've been in Santa Barbara for 645 days now and I'm not mad about this forecast. I'm such a lucky guy!

Railroads will be allowed to reduce inspections and rely more on technology to spot track problems
The nation’s freight railroads are going to be able to try relying more on technology and inspect their tracks less often after the federal government approved their waiver request on Friday.

I have made a handy list of the appropriate uses of mentioning the 80s comedy film "Revenge of the Nerds":
1. Talking about how it's a rapey movie where the protagonist is a rapist
That's it. That's the list.

One of many Cambridge street watercolours I did 30-40 years ago. Working on the spot uniquely preserves memories and feelings. The shop signs at that time in Green St were extravagantly beautiful and the passers by were sketched in quickly. Still have this one.
