Y’all know how I feel about Daylight Saving Time. And yes, Saving is “singular.” No S on the end. The government just needs to leave Time well enough alone. And this whole “Save Daylight” movement? Nuh-uh. Nope. Just say no. Do those geniuses not realize that if you steal an hour from morning to add daylight to evening, you end up with dark at midmorning? I mean, seriously! What are they thinking?!?!! Just leave it alone the way it is right now because yes, we are back on REAL Time! Also, I only had to switch the clocks on the microwave and the coffeemaker. I’d left all the other non-electornic device clocks on real time. Yeah, I’m all lazy like that. But…now I’m so used to looking at the neon wall clock and adding an hour that I’m been confused on time since getting up yesterday. 🙄
In other news, sales for MOONLIGHT MAFIA: BOSTON haven’t been particularly awesome. Low numbers but steady which is something, I guess. I do wish readers would take the time to drop at least a rating if not a full review on the sites where they bought their copy. Y’all don’t realize how things like that affect the algorithms and boost visibility. 📚💲
Okay, end of whine. In other news. WEATHER! Holy Springtime, Batman! You’d thing it was May instead of November around here. Flooding rain and tornadoes over the weekend and more rain today. We NEED the rain so not complaining but Mother Nature could have left the swirly things tucked in the back of her closet. They missed us but the areas in the state–including the SW and SE-NE metro areas were hit hard. 😞🌪⛈
Stormy was here most of last week during school hours. He had/had walking pneumonia but got much better after his doc got him on some antibiotics. He was feeling good enough for a family dinner at our local pizza place to belatedly celebrate Only’s birthday. Good food, better company, and a cool moment for a family also eating there. Dad brought his daughter over right after we arrived to see what kind of dog Jake is and to ask if she could pet, which of course she could. Turns out they have a mini Pyrdoodle (Pyrenees miniature poodle mix and don’t ask me how that happened because…logistics! 😲 ) who was at a nearby emergency vet clinic having surgery because it ate a sock. Later, Dad came back with his younger son who wanted to pet the big dog and to let us know their pupper had come through fine and would recover fully. We were glad Jake could take the little ones’ minds off their pup.
I need to get back to work today after my Wallyworld run. I need to get MIDNIGHT CLEAR updated and uploaded to Draft2Digital for wide distribution on December 9th when it comes off Kindle Unlimited. That’s a matter of getting the backmatter switched over to blind links rather than ‘Zon links. Then I think I’m going to pull MOONSTRUCK GENESIS: RETRIBUTION off the back burner and finally get that “series” finished. That’s a matter of matching up two Moonstruck books, and a novella and adding some transitions. Aftet that, it’s a toss up between my other 3 series. I’ll see who starts jabbering at me the loudest.
I’m sure other stuff has happened but I’m still time deprived at the moment. How are the rest of you handling the time change?
