    If you were looking at the shirts I sell...

    ... they're about to go away. My shirt printer is retiring, and I have no replacement.

    After May 5 I'm going to take down the online order links on my little business's online store, and after this summer I'll clear out of whatever shirts I have left.

    So if you'd noticed any of these before, now's effectively the last chance.

    Not back to KSP yet, but I did do some space stuff.

    I haven't touched KSP since my early experience with KSP2 was a combination of glitchy game and impossible-to-read UI. I've been thinking about it here and there, but I've had other things to do.

    But that doesn't mean I'm not doing space stuff, and yesterday I finally edited and posted a video of such.

    My muse is nagging me.

    I've done very little writing the past five months, partly due to being busy, but mostly due to recurring headaches when it's writing time.

    I have a couple weeks off, and I'm going to try to make time to get back on my projects (the Octavia story and novelizing Peter is the Wolf). But my mind... well... it's trying to jump ahead, or possibly back.

    Life imitates art...

    So, a privately built and operated space probe became the first US lander to soft-land on the Moon last week- Odysseus.

CSP update imminent. · 5:43am Dec 20th, 2016

25,953 words.

Chapter 10's rough draft is complete.

Three flights.

Two re-entries.

One musical number.

And several references, hints, and Chekov's Guns.

Tomorrow I edit, and hopefully post, this monster.

Stay tuned, space fans.

Three flights, but only two re-entries?

4347565 One flight was a low-atmosphere test. You can't re-enter the atmosphere if you never leave it.

You made me very, very concerned for a bit there and I don't think I appreciate that very much.




Oh, who'm I kidding? What good is adventure without a bit of concern?

great to have it back

Woohoo, the hype!

Also, jeez, I feel like we're going to end up with 100k word chapters in the end. Awesome!

The longest chapter I have ever seen was 33K plus change, and I only managed to stick with that because it was A) a damned fine story, B) a crossover of two of my favourite series, and C) the ONLY good LOHAV story I have ever seen on this site.

Story is here.

This story is without-a-doubt in my top 10 comedies, if not top 3 (need to actually make my comedies book shelf), but I doubt I could stick with chapters going over 33K. It would kill all the pacing (and probably the author).

I was just joking, chapters that long would be egregious to get through.

We could just hook Kris up to life support.
