Point I’ve always tried to really but the love “... act behind” section, because it’s exactly that you have to come into the art and bring it forward. Move your ass. Your brain. From @warrenellis #orbitaloperations newsletter. Get it. (at Hialeah, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/BotoF2_hcEB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vtth3yjlmpey
One of my FAVORITE things on Sunday is the @warrenellis newsletter, #orbitaloperations It’s always entertaining but Warrens insight into the field be the they comics or storytelling in general are just insightful and amazing. This week he talk about panels and flow in comics. I have my own insights happening as I get more lettering work. Anywho look it up and sign up for it, you won’t regret it #dirtymonkeyitplans (at Atlanta, Georgia)
There are now more than 14,000 of you notionally receiving this missive. In military terminology, I believe that makes you a division. Personally, I would like a corps, so do keep sharing and telling people about Orbital Operations. It would do me no end of good to go to sleep at night believing that I could theoretically invade a small country. I'm back. How are you?
Warren Ellis [ORBITAL OPERATIONS] 3jan16
Personal projects for 2016: * I need to find and commit to the very best iOS compatible, exportable contacts manager there is. * I need to either find and commit to the simplest and most powerful iOS-accessible wiki installation or think of new ways to leverage my WithKnown install for note-taking. The reason is easy. I'm going to be 48 next year, I already had a Mysterious Miscellaneous Neurological Event this year, and soon I will start needing memory aids. WithKnown doesn't have quite enough of the simple hooks that I need - I still pray for IFTTT to encompass WithKnown. I could just route everything into Tumblr again, but, really, I want my information on an install that I own in some way. Do you really trust Yahoo to not somehow bork or dump Tumblr one day? I may have to launch a WordPress instance, just because I'm more likely to be able to effectively pull data into it. This is what used to be called lifelogging, right? I've experimented with it a few times, just to get a feel for the idea and what its uses were. I finally have a use case for it: old age. Also, with the withdrawal from social media, email and DMs are now my primary methods for contacting other people. I used Brewster for contacts a couple of years ago, never really got along with it, and now I notice that they've been acqui-hired. Am currently trying the premium version of EasilyDo. All of which kind of comes down to that "wait, this is the end of 2015, I should have all kinds of future-y stuff to do things for me!" nonsense. It's an idiocy to be disappointed by consumer services that never appeared because they mostly existed only in the heads of myself and other science fiction writers, and I'm probably an edge case for contacts usage anyway - but, seriously, just take the contacts from my email, social networks and messaging apps, put them in one place and stick a photo on them so I have a face to recognise, at the very bloody least. Your shitty future continues to offend me.
