This weekend, we went up to Madison to see my grandma. She loves seeing our two kids. It is a spirit-sucking experience, though, because of her nature and the truly sad relationship we have with my ma.
Good to see family though.
Oh I should do #authorconfession over here too.

Mastodon is missing a few pretty emoji, I think. :(
I'm in a hotel and no one will let me write.
I’m sick to death of people being precious about #GMO produce. Functionally there is no difference between a grape bred to have little or no seed and a grape that has been modified in a lab for the same thing. Y’all are just scared of science.
You wanna talk about #Monsanto charging for “licenses” for their crops, ok. Talk about agribusiness killing the planet, ok. Talk about corporations copyrighting genetic code, ok. These are all valid concerns.
But the science is sound.
Hi, thanks for your ideas and insights 🙂
I'm not as well informed as you but I'm interested in mesh networks and more decentralised internet alternatives.
I've been thinking about communicating over the internet without DNS. It would be based on pairs or groups of trusted 'friends' that keep each other updated with their changing IP addresses. Your ID on the network would be a public key and you could connect to non-friends via chains of friends of friends.
The 2018 Military SF Bundle, curated by bestselling author Kevin J. Anderson, is the latest bundle from Storybundle.
12 great e-books with tales from the high-tech battlefields right here on our home planet to the farthest reaches of the galaxy.
DRM-free and available as both ePub and Mobi!
My beta reader is the first and only person who asked for a specific novel. Unless otherwise another #patreon vote, the next novel will be Kin Killer.
It will post tomorrow again, but I wanted to show off tonight. :) Mainly because I think what I've written is pretty cool.

After a few weeks of work, the current rewrite of Author Intrusion got to a stopping point. This has the barest minimum functionality to detect echo words but it has a long way to go. Depressingly long way, but I need to let it settle a little before I jump back into it.
What started off as a "quick" post ended up being a huge post of where I am with Author Intrusion. I apparently needed a pick me up and a chance to show off.
#amreading “Apocalypse Nyx” by Kameron Hurley. Gritty SF action-thriller (actually a collection of novellas). Tough women. Guns. Bug-based technology. Recommended if you like those things, or if you like grizzled action-movie protagonists but wish they weren’t all guys.

Buzzed with the excitement of having a private dinner with a successful merchant and Falkin, Kanéko returns to her room to find Pahim and his friends had drunken themselves into a stupor.
So the answer was Atom. I pushed up a PR for my efforts.
I failed to get apm-beta working for Windows though. So, tiny, tiny screen.
Bah, not sure what to work on:
1. Improving Atom's spell-check
2. Commission
This week continues to suck.

Someone had the bright idea of making a "Windows Only" category on Steam and putting all non-Linux games in there, so I tried it out. Great concept, if one of those games gets a port unexpectedly, I'll be able to tell really easily.
Oddly, there are only a few that I'd really want. Skyrim and Oblivion of course. The Avernum games. The early Assassin's Creeds and the original Divinity games. But the rest? They'd be nice, but I'll be okay if they're never ported.
Y'all might not know this, but I recycle 10% of my Patreon income back into the community by supporting other creators' Patreons. I just reached $80/month, so do you have suggestions for who could use a little support?
My preference is for those who are part of an underrepresented population, and/or whose Patreons are still small and struggling. I don't have much to offer, so I want to put it where it matters, you know?
And if you want to pump the numbers, here's mine:
