Don’t give up — the weeks just started!
It’s not often that I wake up, feeling like someone out there needs a pick-me-up, but today was that day. Not sure who it is or what the problem is, but I’m here to let you know YOU GOT THIS!!
Here’s the microwave version:
Bad night - tired — so doing my best here, near zero sleep.
The Underlings digital version of the book AWAKENING drops tomorrow.
Last episode of Chronicles of a Hero Season 3 is this Friday. This is also the completion of the first book. I’l start working on that right away…starting with the cover art ideas…
The ‘boys’ got out last week… Chuck, Höbin, Dax, Alhannah and Death (as in THE) decided they wanted in on the comments sections and they partied…HARD.
Going to drop substack co-founder and CEO
a message and give him an example of how fiction is being used on this platform through the comments sections. [Chris, if you FIND this note, what I’m talking about starts at 13:34] For the record, I’ve been doing this (talking through fictional characters) on the web since 2005, and actively on other websites since 2014Mike Rowe talked about me on Facebook, about the doodle I sent to his mom, Peggy and made her laugh. I truly loved working for them.
God answered a little boys prayer and I was there to see it happen. God loves you. …and so do I.
Have a WONDERFUL day AND week.
Holy cats. Yes. Yes yes yes. If we could manage sub accounts from a single main account, that would be GLORIOUS!! Especially because there are people who publish fiction under a pen name.
*sigh* unfortunately, it might be an absolute nightmare on the back end what with bots and AI. But if I could more easily switch between accounts, then.....
Thinking about it, they might not want you and I running rampant with our characters, Jaime. And.....I really mean me.
Hi. It's me. I'm the problem, it's me.
It's not just me and Death. It's not even about The Morrigan and Death. That sort of "yes, and..." character writing is where I cut my fiction teeth when i was pregnant with my oldest. (He will be 28 in a few days.)
I spent 8 years in the frontline trenches of that particular form of live entertainment. And I didn't realize how much I missed it until this weekend.
Then,...you're welcome. Heh.
Right now it takes individual accounts, and for a 'live' conversation, I only have so many windows, browsers and....oh....WAIT....I might be wrong....
...oh my....
HOLD PLEASE!!!
Nope, wont work.
You cannot open a second incognito window.
Have to use a new browser.
yeah I'd say, usually platforms like this don't like alt accounts but I suppose you can see what he says....I just figure he may not particularly be too keen on the idea.
If you wanted the live stream Chris did, the way they talked about fiction and how unique interactions was part of the future of this platform and the success of fiction writers.
...I don't believe substack is against this kind of use. Especially when it's positive and creates more interaction with readers.
Now, I can certainly be wrong, but I'm not sure I am.
*the heady aroma of Dragon's blood and myrrh enters the chat*
There is, of course, always the delicate debate about the responsible use of power. Especially given some of the delicious controversies that have surrounded the platform from time to time.
So very... Savory.
But I find it easy to gorge myself on conflict these days, and as for bringing Death? He's got no need of my services in that regard! People are all too happy to rush toward him with reckless abandon and open arms. Usually ignoring a clearly printed sign in the process.
Substack has a very... in your eye, contrary nature to it. Misfits, rogues, and creative radicals abound, like a gathering of everyone who didn't 'fit in' at school. They've built their own little corner of the internet cafeteria, and it strikes me that this is precisely the sort of thing that they just might do...
IF ONLY BECAUSE no one else is.
If I were a betting man -- and I am *neither* of these things -- I wouldn't dismiss the idea until it has received thorough address.
God bless you and your family always. I pray you are able to rest and feel better soon.
Thanks for starting off my day & week with positivity! ❤️ Have a great week, my friend!!!
