Random Word Vomit

Hello again. I'm back for my second entry today. I hope everyone has forgiven me (All two of you that read these posts). I don't think I have anything to talk about, so instead of taking time to sit and think of something; I'll just puke words out on the screen until something comes up.

It's been a busy week in Lincoln, and now that I'm back I'm ready to relax for a bit. But, of course, I won't relax because I get bored easily and I need to keep myself busy. I did finish a short story earlier today. It still needs some polish, but I'm just glad that it's done now. I might take a look at it later tonight if I'm not doing anything. I like the story. I won't spoil anything about it, but it might be a little controversial. Maybe not as much anymore. I started it after a national tragedy, but that was a while ago, so it might be okay. The ending was unexpected. I was thinking of it to end one way (like the tragedy), but for some reason it switched right at the climax. I'm okay with the ending. I like the message that came out. All that needs to get done is to go through and make sure the theme flows through the story nicely.

Another thing that happened today... I got a package in the mail. It's a book that I'm going to use for research on the story I mentioned a couple days ago, so that's exciting...

I feel like I should just make a podcast or something, right? I mean, when I type these posts it's just the voice in my head speaking through my fingers. Plus, I think it would be funny to hear myself try and find topics to talk about. I'll keep writing these posts, of course. For one thing, I promised that I would write on here everyday. Also, this blog keeps me writing everyday which is vastly important. Lastly, this is a good way to show people my stories and get thoughts out of my head. I don't know. If anyone thinks that's a good idea just let me know. Comment on here, or message me on Facebook or twitter or something.

Okay, well, I'm going to go ahead and check some other stories to see what needs to be fixed up. Talk to you tomorrow. Adios.

Y2K Bug / New Blog

Image
Y2K bug, also called Year 2000 bug or Millennium Bug, a problem in the coding of computerized systems that was projected to create havoc in computers and computer networks around the world at the beginning of the year 2000 (in metric measurements K stands for thousand). After more than a year of international alarm, feverish preparations, and programming corrections, few major failures occurred in the transition from December 31, 1999, to January 1, 2000. Until the 1990s, many computer programs (especially those written in the early days of computers) were designed to abbreviate four-digit years as two digits in order to save memory space. These computers could recognize “98” as “1998” but would be unable to recognize “00” as “2000,” perhaps interpreting it to mean 1900. Many feared that when the clocks struck midnight on January 1, 2000, many affected computers would be using an incorrect date and thus fail to operate properly unless the computers’ software was repaired or r...

Mental Illnesses Personified

Image
Alright, so this morning I was sent a link this morning to 15 illustrations of mental illnesses represented as houses. It was really cool and thought-provoking, so, thanks to Nyla Grigsby for sending me the link. I'll share it here . Check it out, but not before you read this post (obviously). After looking through those pictures, I was reminded of a series of drawings I found a couple years ago with the same idea (only much more frightening - which I like). If you're not aware, every October, artists from all around the world participate in a drawing challenge called "InkTober" where they make one ink drawing a day for the entire month. In October 2016, an amazing artist Shawn Coss  decided to make his own original prompt for the month. Shawn wanted to focus primarily on personifying mental illnesses and disorders. These illustrations are crazy awesome, scary, realistic . Shawn manages to capture the struggle and turmoil of those who suffer with these illnesses...

GOING AWAY PARTY!

Image
HELLO LOYAL READERS! All 7 or 8 of you if I'm not mistaken. Thank you for continuing to read my blog every day for the last 310 days! Or, if you've just clicked on the links without reading the articles, that's also okay because it still shows up as if you did read it, so thanks for even clicking the links at all. I'm sure they were getting annoying after around day 50. Good thing I went on for another 260! So, I've been thinking about this move for a while now, and I think today is the perfect day to do it. While, yes, this will be the last post on this specific platform, it will NOT be the last you hear of me chucking my random interests into your faces. In fact, I like to think of this as an upgrade. An upgrade that will benefit all of us! Now that I've finally figured out how Patreon works, THAT will be where any blog posts, interesting articles, short stories and general updates on what's going on in my life will be posted. This way I can...
