Somebody just pointed out something I’d forgotten I’d written at the end of FIREBIRD DECEPTION which is in direct contrast to something I’ve written in PHOENIX LAW. I can probably fix it with a few sentences, but boy, right now I’m thinking of Joss Whedon’s, “Consistency in your universe is God. All must bow before it–unless you happen to think of something really, really cool,” as the way to deal with internal consistency in your world. :) Writing is hard!
o deer whut m i doing up?

I meant to take tomorrow off. I seem to have taken today off instead. Partly this was due to going to bed too late and consequently getting up too late. Then Ted’s memory arrived and he put his old memory into my computer, so I had to spend an hour and a half playing CoH to see if having 3x as much memory helped my zoning problem (it did; oh, how it did). Then I just plain didn’t feel very good, so I took my rather pathetic self downstairs and…
