It only took two (small) car loads, one solid friend, and three hours to pack up all my worldly possessions and ship ’em across town. Now I’m about 70% set up in the new place, acclimating, and intent on establishing some kinda routine. No words yet, but I’m off to […]
Not sure if I mentioned this here yet, but I’m packing up and moving to different part of the city this week. Fairly major shift away from the downtown core to the Greater Toronto Area. Major benefits are cost savings and more time to write (and, hopefully, exercise). The major […]
A bunch of things to report on, but not enough time to gather them all before I leave for Things & Stuff (okay it’s board games) tonight. So, I’ll just note that I am very pleased with this WordPress Theme and the way MostlyLies.com looks and feels right now. Had […]

Because it was a winter storm situation outside! Damn missed opportunity. Today, the snow is stopped and I only (so far) wrote 911 words. Which is a lot more than I expected, what with afternoon plans brewing, but one again the story momentum provided the energy. Must enjoy while it […]
