Lost in the Social Media Landscape

No, sweet & silly Belle has nothing to do with the subject of this post — except that I made that image for a Facebook friend, and haven't done Friday Cat Blogging here for ages. Watermark used to be the center of my online life (which is much of my Real Life.) Now, there is… Continue reading

Auto-Follow is Anti-Social: an introvert’s thoughts on social media

I have recently entered an entirely new (for me) internet world: the marketing Web. My Etsy shop, an attempt to offset some of my online costs, opened recently, after several weeks of research, exploration, and reading about online selling. I've read article after article on using social media — Facebook, Flickr, Twitter — to sell… Continue reading

Facebook Fan Page? Help?

[UPDATE 9 April 02009] Well, I think the answer to the question Would anyone really be interested in this? is: NO. So I'm going to let this slide back down the page. [I'm going to keep this post at the top for a few days, since I'm still looking for help with Facebook Pages.] I've… Continue reading

25 Things

I've been tagged for this meme, by someone I really like, so am compelled to respond. Perhaps a good thing: The Random Beauty of "25 Random Things". If I don't record my dreams, I don't write. I know this is a very strong correlation, though I don't completely understand it. Some images and inspiration come… Continue reading

Save An Alien!

Have you saved an alien today? I saved one a couple of weeks ago. Of course, I haven’t checked on or visited it since. Typical imperialist. Here it is, safely quartered at Antarctica [click for larger image]: Its name is Za. The website tells me I should give it a human name, but… Continue reading

DISCLAIMERS:

Artificial Intelligence

I do not use AI to write. For me, writing is thinking, and I prefer to do my own. If/when I post anything here that I suspect or know to be AI generated, I will tell you.

Poems

Please do not assume that I am the speaker/ subject of my poems.

In these times of creative nonfiction and fictionalized memoirs, I think of the poem itself as true fiction: it is most likely not factual, but it must be true.

It is likely to be — it is best if it is — a truth I did not know before I wrote, and may not understand even then.

A poem is my way of discovering (dis-covering) what I feel; sometimes, what I think — but it is not necessarily biographical.
