I dunno about Enjoy, but definitely expect it and marvel at the ingenuity of it.  :cheeky grin:

  • She has been assimilated.  Resistance, go figure, ended up being futile after all.

Indiana?

 

Nope.

 

(phew)

 

 

Just printed the entire introduction.  15 pages as it stands.  Probably 10 after I edit it.  Not my greatest work but it was necessary to set the stage for the actual book.  Bought a new laptop just for the book writing.  Now they want me to buy Word online.  Might just use the notepad and call it good.  My virgin PC will never experience the internet.  Clean flash drive for backups and printing.  If TOR won't accept notepad maybe I'll have to post it online for free.

 

First, I have to finish building doors for wifey's bedroom closets out of tongue-and-groove pine boards.  If I knew what I was doing I would have had the job done a couple of years ago.  Oh, well.  I'll just hurry and slap it together so I can get started writing the book.  That's the American way, right?

 

Love,

Gramps

 

Do a half-assed slap-together job just to say you got something done in a timely manner? That is totes the Amerikan Way.

At least we are of one mind, my queen.

I'm just SO proud to be part of all of this...I could just pee I'm so happy.

Anyway,

 

I just printed Chapter 1.

About 15 pages (I didn't count them and it will change later anyway).

Not THE VERY BEST STUFF I'VE EVER DONE but not too bad if you're used to GrandpaG RP stuff.

Was telling my son and his daughter about it yesterday and they both said "That sounds like REVOLUTION!".

A series that I haven't seen that they have been watching for 3 years on TV.

So, now if I ever do try to peddle my wares they'll say "you copied REVOLUTION".

That's OK.

I know the truth.

I wasn't really planning on being able to retire on that money, anyway.

I'll just keep being a human robot.

So there.

Trying out the wife's new laptop hooked up to her phone.  It's not as FREE as I am used to but it seems to work OK.  Lots of Giga stuff so it must be better than my old XP with dial up.

 

Working on Chapter 14 of my novel.  Typical GrandpaG stuff.  Not half way done yet.  Working on it a couple of hours a day during the week.  Might have it done in a year or so.  I'm not looking to make money off from it but I would like thousands of readers (you know how I crave attention).  Somebody said Amazon will post it for sale then you get some money each time a book sells.  I almost think I'd get more readers if it was free.  Don't know.  Plenty of time if I don't die.

 

Hi.  Bye.

 

Love,

Happy Father's Day to me! FREE Galaxy tab4. Don't like the hunt and peck keyboard but you all know how much I like FREE!!!

 

I'm using my son's data. He said he has lots left over each month so FREE plus faster equals a happier gramps.

 

Chapter 16 is almost finished...had to build wifey a 15 foot closet to hide her clothes...back to writing again now. Few more months maybe.

 

Bye for now.

Love.

I just found a printout from 2011 when I was spamming the rich man poor man thread in Rev 1. It was only 14 pages but it made me want to come here to read the rest so I thought I might as well say hi as long as I'm in the neighborhood. Hi.

 

I've got some time off from work for health reasons that should be OK by the end of September so I might be able to finish my novel. So far I have heard that I can get it put into printable shape on amazon create space then they will make it available as a Kindle download. If all of that happens I'll let you know. I'm about half way done with chapter 18 out of 20 total. I might add a post script...you know me.

 

Anyway, I'm still breathing so far.

Love,

Gramps

I like what you've done with your avatar and your siggy...they're so...YOU!!!  Are they some of your work?

Neither. The avatar is one of the two main characters from an anime called NANA, while I cobbled the sig together from a Hark! A Vagrant comic about Sara Josephine Baker and Typhoid Mary..

You probably have no means of successfully watching NANA if your connection speed is still dialup (and you probably wouldn't like it either; it's pretty soapy), but as for the other, http://www.harkavagrant.com/ it has lots of history- and literature-based humor.
