Wednesday, June 30, 2010Here
I know you still come here.
I can trace you through my website back to your web address. Don't. There's nothing here for you... Nothing at all. And maybe I'll leave here too. The rabbit is always running... Late. -posted by Nobius 11:26 PM # Comments (0) Tuesday, June 29, 2010The Misery Signal: All I Ever WantedI never thought I'd like something by Kelly. But this song fits my situation and she's has great hair which is paramount to being a good person. :) I kid. Or maybe not. :) -posted by Nobius 10:43 PM # Comments (0) Sunday, June 27, 2010Saturday, June 26, 2010Friday, June 25, 2010Wednesday, June 23, 2010And This Is How It Is...And I apologized for things long overdue... my heart remains unsettled, my security crushed again. I'm not very good at being an adult. Or a lover. Thinking about putting Muse Thing on temporary hiatus so we concentrate on book publishing, our planned upcoming Poetry-Fest, finish some of my own writing projects, and take some much needed down time. I love it, but it's getting almost like work. And the minute it's work, I'm hanging up the Sharpie. And this is how it is today, my own words come back to haunt me: "I would love to love the world again; For the very first time." My favorite song never becomes irrelevant... But I do. -posted by Nobius 7:58 AM # Comments (0) Monday, June 21, 2010Micrsoft Word 2007 Sucks
Do you think anyone that works at Microsoft ever tells Bill and the gang how bad his software sucks before they introduce it to the public?
I can't even figure out where "save as" went in Word 2007 so I can create a PDF. -posted by Nobius 8:08 AM # Comments (1) Sunday, June 20, 2010Saturday, June 19, 2010Tools for Ta-tas
Being a professional tool guy for a living, Tool Girls are a benefit that makes it all worth it at the end of the day.
No, seriously. :) -posted by Nobius 9:27 AM # Comments (0) Friday, June 18, 2010Thursday, June 17, 2010Misery Signal: O.A.R. -- Shattered
The music on my brain today.

How many times can I pray until I shatter?" --O.A.R. -posted by Nobius 8:32 AM # Comments (0) Misery Signal: Natalie Merchant's Lose Your SleepLook closely in the beginning of the video at the library type images. Amazing stuff. Natalie's voice after all these years is still top notch as well. And the singer gives us insight into her new found study of poetry. -posted by Nobius 12:58 AM # Comments (0) Wednesday, June 16, 2010Mind Pulp 06/16/10
Tonight I'm thinking about multimedia catalogs, brochures, magazines and websites contained within the electrons of the interweb. Gotta learn some design.
But mostly I'm thinking of Tool Girls. Tool Girls are hot. -posted by Nobius 10:18 PM # Comments (0) Tuesday, June 15, 2010Monday, June 14, 2010Mind Pulp 07/14/10 2136
Tonight, I'm nervous. Thinking way too much. About to go watch LEGION. But today, I'm thinking about seminars. Like the ones from Writer's Digest. Now if I could only turn down the thoughts, I'd get some sleep.
This one is from a seminar on getting your novel or memoir published: How to draw an agent into your story in just a few words—whether it's your query, verbal pitch or the first page of your manuscript. What goes into a killer query—from making a connection to an agent, to drafting an exciting pitch that will leave agents wanting more. The importance of a one-sentence tagline that gets a reader excited about your book. What agents look for on that all-important Page 1. How to plan and prepare a verbal pitch of your book so you can meet with agents at writers conferences. What goes into a complete proposal for fiction—and how to know all the tools at your disposal. How agents and editors quickly look over a project and decide if it has the necessary elements to make them request more. How to get your book published! -posted by Nobius 9:36 PM # Comments (0) Quoteable"Please, let it go back to normal... or take one of these places away.

The inspiration for the look of Midas's daughter Megan, in my story: The City, Itself.
And what exactly happens, when Megan is no longer made of gold? That's what I'm plotting/finding out right now. This story is too good to be true, the characters really do right themselves. -posted by Nobius 8:56 PM # Comments (0) Saturday, June 12, 2010Thursday, June 10, 2010Misery Signal: Hollywood Undead's My Black Dahlia
