wow. cool.

The “Year of Miracles” commission is unexpectedly (to me, anyway) close to 175 donors, standing currently at 163, which is easily ten more than I thought might be achieved.There are 23 hours left. Will it make 175? Stay tuned to find out! Now I’m off to make about nine dozen cookies for dessert tomorrow. :)

approaching a magic number

Well. When I typed that subject line, I was thinking of the “Year of Miracles” commission, which is just shy of equalling the number of subscribers (138) “Hot Time” had from its two months of sales, eight months apart. I think I should give a copy of “Hot Time” to the 139th person who subscribes to “Year of Miracles”. And maybe to the 150th.

Getting a white wig (maybe something like this?) and coloring it appropriately with a marker wouldn’t really be that hard. A bit time consuming, but since it’d be short and only the roots need ‘dying’, not that bad. Going to the trouble of a Nebari costume, however, really…

“Take A Chance” on eBay

The five issue run of “Take A Chance” is being auctioned off on eBay by somebody or other, in case someone would like to have a copy. Yesterday, unrelated to this auction since I didn’t know about it, and therefore randomly, because I was feeling gloomy about the prospect of ever, ever, ever finishing the series (I’m pretty gloomy about ever getting a graphic novel out, for that matter. Or getting paid by the Dabels. Anyway.) I had the vague thought of continuing it online as a crowdfunded novel. In…
