Grr my Squareoff “smart” chessboard that I just got has issues… I’m hoping they can resolve the issues, or it’s a waste of my money. #chess #squareoff #neo

Time to thank everyone on whichever platform that follows or chooses to interact with me. I know I’m not the most social of humans, but I appreciate every interaction whether it is active, passive, or passive-aggressive. You guys have a choice of who you follow. You guys rock.

It’s time to actually eat something.

I experiment with everything I write. This sequel is going to be a mix of romance, comedy and thriller with lots of explosions and gratuitous tech. Oh and Yakuza and Triad. #writing #sequel #coins

I’m beginning to lay out a broad outline of “Coins of Destiny - II” I didn’t feel like transcribing/editing today. #writing

Time to eat and write.

It’s a nice day outside. I’ll get out and do some house stuff later. It’s that time of year.

I should have paid more attention in Statistics in college, or had a better professor. #math #statistics

Good morning. You are better than you think, worse than you can be. Time for the ceremonial coffee.
