The title says it all.
I'm pulling a Monty Python from the back of the cart. I may look downtrodden, possibly sickly, and surrounded by plague. But I hereby declare my alive-ness.
It has been about a dozen years since the release of The Almost Crime. Wow! I've collected ... one royalty check. This Blog has probably generated hits in the ... ones. So of course reviving it is the only course that makes sense. 'He who hesitates is lost! Or she! Aye!' When one has such humble beginnings, one mustn't start over.
Since my last post, I have improved upon This Walking Memeplex. In fact, I'm working on it now. But I have been busy in other ways. Busy, like raising kids. Busy, like playing pickleball. Busy, like moving twice. My bio says I live in Central PA and own a guinea pig. I don't, and I don't ... but I have a dog now. Her whine is very high-pitched, and could almost be confused for wheeking.
For now I think I'll leave the description like it is.
How much do you really need to know about me?
Let's circle back to This Walking Mememplex, a project that started in 2012 or 2013 and has technically not yet completed. Do you remember those field trips to the art museum as a kid? Who am I kidding. If you're reading this, you probably are a kid. Technology being what it is...
OK. So... do you remember that trip to the art museum last week?
You may have seen a painting or two that took "a couple years" to complete. When I heard that, I imagined an old man standing in one position with a paintbrush.
Well, here's the truth. I am a middle-aged man, thank you very much. And I have not been standing in one position with a paintbrush. I haven't even been hunched over in one position with a typewriter. What I've done this morning is have breakfast ... give this blog a little bit of emergency CPR ... and I'm about to go play pickleball.
As a matter of fact, This Walking Memeplex is not the only project I've had in the works over the last dozen years. I have also finished the following books you've never heard about:
I am the Sheriff
The Second Coming of Christina
The Visibility Trick
Sticks in the Snow
More about these projects to come. Hopefully, by the time I'm done, you will have heard about them.
Have a lovely day, whoever you are. And read on.
