\"Aphrodite\"Thank you to everyone that has sent me a birthday message today.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Facebook has locked me out of my account and is saying my computer is not my computer, which is why I can’t thank anyone on my timeline \ud83d\ude41 So, thanks to Xakara, Imari Jade, Melanie Tushmore, Fernanda Parente, AJ Llewellyn, Cuqui Luna, Patrick Wendling-Markwell, Blaine D. Arden, and any other well-wishers on this, the day I was born so many (many) years ago. You all are fabulous ^_^<\/p>\n

Hopefully the Internet situation will sort itself out here. Everyone in the neighborhood is having Internet trouble, so it’s not just us. At least it means the phone company will be out and about, working around the clock to get things working again.<\/p>\n

\n

Other things of note:
– I’m excited about the new movies coming out on Netflix this month. Namely, Kick-Ass 2<\/i>, which I’ve been waiting for.<\/p>\n

– I’ve got a good start going on All That Remains<\/i>, the third book in “Heroes & Villains.” It’s set four years after Allies & Enemies<\/i>. I can’t really say a whole lot at this point without spoiling A&E some, but the outline is pretty bad ass.<\/p>\n

In case you didn’t know, “Heroes & Villains” follows a three-act structure. Heroes & Villains<\/i> is Act One, introducing the characters and the setting. Allies & Enemies<\/i> is Act Two, showing the confrontation and setting up the climax. And All That Remains<\/i> is Act Three, the resolution to everything brought up in the first two acts.<\/p>\n

Each novel can standalone, but together they make one story — the chronicles of the supervillain Darkstar.<\/p>\n

– Paradigm Shift<\/i> is starting to look beautiful (:P) and will be coming out on time (February 2014). Park is even more bad ass than I thought he was going to be. Plus there’s all that stuff with Zero I’ve been splicing in here and there, little tasties that make a lot of sense if you read the upcoming Shorts and Squares: Jagged Blade<\/i> (January 2014).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
