Musings

  • I am not allowed to tell Boo to tell his teacher that the letter of the week is R, for Rakkasan.
  • When your “80’s Alternative Rock” station plays the Curly Shuffle, it’s time to check your settings on Pandora.
  • When asked “Why do you carry a gun?”, I am not allowed to answer “Because I’m tired of dragging your mother back into the surf.”
  • The audiobook of Minivandians is coming along quite nicely.  I’m hoping to get it out in February.
    • Note to Self – If I ever get the money, the final editing step before publishing anything is to pay someone to read it to me.  I’ve done a lot of cringing as I listen to the chapters.
  • I’m going to rename our grocery “TBH Groceries and Dry Goods”. TBH stands for “Temporal Black Hole.”  I don’t know how I spent 45 minutes getting a bunch of bananas, a pound each of butter and apples, and two dozen eggs today, but I did.

    You’re doing audio? Way cool!

    And yes, I’ve heard other authors suggest using text-to-speech option in word (even if it is a monotone) or the kindle fire version, in order to proofread. They say it’s great for catching the words that were misspelled as another word, like “in” instead of “on”, and awkward sentences.
