Status Symbology
There are currently more saved drafts in the Acerbia Editing Menu than anything else and it occurs to me that I'm probably boring you or losing the audience with this self-imposed silence so here's a bit of an explanation as to what's going on.
The Shahrazad post below was supposed to be the first in a series that explored various aspects of the Arabian 1001 Nights formula of storytelling with stories within stories within stories. The second and third posts are planned out, even partly written, but somehow I just can't go through with publishing them.
Publishing isn't that big a problem though as I recently received my copy of the Blog Book I was included in. There is a very special feeling that I had previously never experienced upon seeing my words in print and my name right there in ink on paper. Its almost like realising that there can be such a thing as a legacy that lives on beyond you. I could get quite used to seeing my words in print.
I have embarked on an attempted cure for my writer's block which involves working directly with my nemesis. Some of you may get a bit excited at that prospect but I urge you not to set your expectations too high as we recently cancelled each other out during a game of Trivial Pursuits.
Comments have been switched off and removed from the site because of some particularly insistent Russian/German spammers filling my old posts with multiple comments each time for forms of pornography that I find repulsive (I'm a big fan of pornography, really I am, but some people are just sick) and so until such time as I can be bother to find a workaround that works I'll just live off your adoring e-mails. Remember, I'm Dave and this is my website. Alternatively my AOL IM handle is AcerbiaDave. Imagine that, the creativity never ends, eh?
In other news I've discovered that the earphones that previously hurt my ears fit better if I put the right one in my left ear and vice versa. However this leaves me with the worry that I am now facing the wrong way when I listen to music. Curiouser and curiouser.
