Writing

[altivo]

Oh yeah, that stuff. I still do that too. Not as much as I should, but some.

The opportunity to join the Furry Writers' Guild came up and I took advantage of it. They asked for links to actual published material, which I provided. The reply took me by surprise. It came down to "Oh yeah, we remember that story. You're in." I don't often find that anyone remembers my work other than personal friends. It was a pleasant turn of events.

After two days of relatively cool and pleasant air, the heat and humidity returned today. I think I'm done with summer. When is autumn?

OK, back to knitting. Gotta get this piece done.

Other people it seems do appreciate what you write. It's maybe because your stuff reads in such a professional way.

LOL. I've never heard my stuff read itself, professionally or otherwise. That would be interesting though.

I've been done with summer since before summer started...

I have a question... how are you and Gary with temporary guests?

[altivo]

Why? You coming in this direction?

We have guests occasionally. It's a small house and very full, so arrangements are haphazard and not suited for more than a couple of days usually.

A couple of friends and I were considering hitting Six Flags Great America. Last year we hit Six Flags Over Georgia by staying with a relative of one of the guys going with us who lived a couple hour away, set out early in the morning to get there at opening, drove back after closing, spent the night, headed home. It's far from concrete planing yet, but it was an idea. We'd be a minimal disruption...

Hmm. We've never had more than two people at once. It might be hard figuring out where to put more than that. Loveseat in Gary's study unfolds to a single bed. Sofa in living room is cramped but possible space for one more. Floor space is almost nonexistent and definitely prone to dog and cat "attack" (or at least slobbers, licks, sneezes, and sharing.)

Travel time from here to Great America is easily two hours and prone to traffic difficulties. I've been there, but I'm not sure it's worth the travel from here, let alone from where you live.

Still, it might be possible. I'm just not sure it's the kind of hospitality I prefer to offer.
