Sadly I have not figured out the finer points of LJ so you're stuck with the raw link rather than a pretty picture or a professionally hyper linked text doodle thing.

Here is the new group for writers which I have started. I used my own ASCII art for the group graphic. Kind of nice. I made it for Suite101 but didn't stick around there long with the big changes they made to the layout. So, here we are from InkSplatters to WordCraft and now.... Writers Resource. My titles are getting kind of bland. But, no one will wonder what the group is for. In theory.

Inkygirl - A weblog for writers who work from home

"Hercorner.com is part of HerPlanet.com and focuses on resources and inspiration for women who write. The site includes some useful articles on specific writing topics, like writing contests, historical fiction for children, and how to write synopses. Too many writing sites tend to have vague 'how anyone can get published' how-to articles with little practical advice these days; this site was a welcome change. I'm not crazy about some of the ads which have nothing to do with writing (moving services? ceramic flat irons?) but then again, I can't blame the Webmaster for looking for a way to financially support the site. Definitely worth checking out, even if you're not a woman. 😀"

Debbie reviewed my old site. A good review too. What a shame HerCorner became a dinosaur. I really need to get in gear and work on making another writing site. I was doing ok with it. Debbie was the person behind InkSpot, the best writing site ever. If she thought my work on HerCorner was good that is a sign I should be doing it again.

I have to leave for work now. It will be late when I come home but I don't have to start till 4:00 tomorrow. Maybe... who knows. :) I miss writing a writing site. I was even doing the WordCraft newsletter at BackWash weekly. There isn't any reason I can't combine all my past greatness with fresh greatness and make an even better site. Plus, I don't need ads, unless I want them.

Friends, tourists, countrymen...

I'm still adding and taking things back but there is stuff to be seen. The Bravenet stuff is ok but I'd rather not have to go to another site to deal with having messageboards. So those may get the unkindest cut, soon.

I do want to finish organizing all the ASCII art I've collected in almost 8 years of being a web denizen/ creature. Also, I've begun making really kitschy stick grrl art. (Deanna would approve, in fact she's already seen two of them). I want to make a freebie greeting card page. But, I don't want it to look really dorky, slightly dorky is ok with me.

Kareem posted to the SK boards. I was happy. Then I wandered here to see that in fact he is alive! Now I can feel guilt for not checking sooner. Well, I'm not a complete heel. I did pop in twice in the last few months.

Anyway, I'm pretty much giving up on LJ cause I am forever having to retype my password and I hate that cause I can never remember the darn things. Yes, someone clever would just use the same one everywhere. But, some sites won't let you use short p-words or force you to add numbers to your standard text p-word. Which all just makes me want to say the f-word. Bite me.

You can poke your sticks through the bars of my cage at ShopGrrl.com I'm not writing at BackWash, any version (well now and then the ABW side, just cause I love red) any more. Gracie offered me a hot red sports car, freebies for anything I care to review (that's a long list) and she finally admitted I have better boobs. How could I say no to writing for Sex-Kitten.net after that?

Sometimes I'm writing for LockerGnome and I'm doing a lot with Suite101.com (writing an Internet topic, managing the Writing and Publishing community and when I can stay awake long enough I copyedit various topics in Religion, Writing and whatever else appears on my list).

I am blogging at BlogSpot too. I was trying to build myself up into a daily routine but that only lasts a few days.

the only reason I stay at ABW is for D..and the unholy and to promote www.sex-kitten.net..but you can tell how involved I am by how much I update..which is usually never! HA! As for the sports car, I got a black one, and the freebies, but I have one thing better...I get to kiss her in person!! And you couldn't say no to writing as sex-kitten, becuz I'd hunt you down, and tickle you till you said yes! smooch As for the better boobies, I'd have to see them for myself. (I've seen Gracie's but not Laura's)

Hey -- I miss your posts!

Women's Sexuality - Suite101.com

This will be a tough topic to keep. Although Suite seems to let it's Religion writers slam Pagans I doubt they will let the Sexuality writer stray too far into any impure thoughts.

I was sorry to see Linda Alexander leave (archive) the Writing Erotica topic. Maybe someone else will take it up again. Although I expect that won't be an easy topic for the same reasons as above.

Online Dating: The Profile - Suite101.com

The update has happened! sigh If anyone (besides me) actually reads this let me know what you think of my guide to writing a dating profile. Did I miss something really basic? Or better yet, just remind me of my greatness. Every now and then it slips my mind.

Some would say my mind has been slipping for awhile. What do they know? They can't even get out of my head and into a life of their own. Wimps!
