Smarch 13th Ramblin’….

Vanburen’s blog has moved to here, update your bookmarks and RSS Feeds.

eBay Auctions are back up, here. The proceeds of the auctions will go towards starting the Phantom Riders Web Comic.

Phantom Rider Web Comic will be adapted from my NaNoWrimo 2004 Novel: Gehma: A Rider’s Tale. The title will probably be changed, once I know more I’ll post.

The PDF of Gehma: A Rider’s Tale can be found, here.

A final note: For those Doctor Who fans, Sci-Fi Channel begins airing episodes this Friday. Since Battlestar Galactica won’t be back until October the general concensus/rumor is we may be getting both seasons.

More later…

The first 24 pages of The O’Hare Dare Script

The O’Hare Dare Script Link.

This is slightly different than my original posting of pages, after some feedback from some of the guys on the Done Deal Messages boards I put about ten pages back into the script.

More on this in the morning…

Word Count Meters in Kiwi…

For anyone who was thinking of using this theme during their NaNoWrimo 2006 Stint, Zokutou’s Word Meter is busted in either Kiwi or WP2 or maybe I didn’t copy something right.

I’ve begun using the Picometer and so far it works well with Kiwi.

New England Weather…

You live in New England long enough you’ll hear this phrase: If you think the weaher stinks wait five minutes.

Last week, for two days, I sat outside on my lunch break writing out background notes on The O’Hare Dare longhand in one of the old hardcover notebooks. It was a nice brisk 50 degrees.

Well, lo and behold, two days later and it’s 8 Degrees outside with a windchill factor of Negative 18.

Cannot wait for spring to get here.

Definately, aim to misbehave…

I think I know what I’m going to write this November.

I’m going to write a Firfly/Serenity Novel.

No idea what it’s going to be about or whose in it, but then, that’s the fun part, since we only have 21 more days to go…
