I am not much for blogging these days, as Ashley and absolutely nobody else has noticed, but worry not: I’ve got a number of fine excuses.
First, I have been writing for dollar money. This sounds terrible, I know, but it’s actually been almost fun. For me, I mean; You get nothing out of it. For example, I’ve been hired to write trivia questions for a Legend of Zelda iPhone app, which is what I was going to do this week anyway. I’m also apparently writing an Op-Ed column for an obviously reputable African American newspaper, who believe my story about the skin condition plaguing the residents of America’s newly-extended dominion into Cascadia.
Second, I have been writing sissypants little personal entries, on LiveJournal of all places. Hahaha, me! Considering including the link to my LiveJournal… Nope. Anyway, I hide these things away behind a friends lock because they are mostly about vaginas and I’m sure nobody on the Internet has any interest in vaginas.
Third, I’ve been writing a lot of fiction. Tons of short stories! I’d post them here, but magazines and anthologies frown on that kind of thing, and apparently I’ve just now decided that getting paid for what I do is a good idea. What I really need here is one of them nifty portals where I let you know where to find my latest work, but I think you’re supposed to be a celebrity to make one of those, and unfortunately Ashley only has the one computer with which to drive up my stats.
Fourth! Yeah, there is a fourth thing. I’m supposed to be working on a video game site so I can pretend that I still write for myself. I haven’t actually been writing for that site either, but presumably this excuse will apply next month.
In closing, uh.
