Sixty-Eight - The In-Laws
Daily Grind, my attempt to replicate the radio serials of the 1930s and '40s--things like Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar and The Shadow and most especially I Love a Mystery--as a daily webcomic full of talking animals, is brought to you courtesy of the Daily Grind Comics Challenge--or whatever it's actually called: "Men of Iron" figures into it, I seem to recall, so I'm guessing they're all Howard Pyle fans.
Working up to the end of Act II in our current melodrama. Might be about time to start pulling our plot threads together...
As far as stories without pictures go, I've got a new Author Central page over at Amazon.com where I'm posting Kindle versions of my previously-published short stories. I'll be adding them as quickly as I can, so beware!
I also have two stories about Cluny the Sorceress Squirrel out this year, one in an anthology called What Happens Next, now available from Furplanet, and another in vol. 28 of Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword & Sorceress.
Oh, and the Daily Grind for the Weekly Reader thing seems to be catching on. Every Saturday, I'll be stacking the previous week's strips on one page for folks who'd rather get a bigger chunk of the story at one sitting without all that tedious mouse clicking. That's also where folks can go to subscribe to an RSS feed for both Daily Grind and Terebinth: the nice people at Livejournal have apparently been providing it as a service all this time.
The URL to add to your RSS reader--or whatever it is you use--is http://hyniof.livejournal.com/data/rss. This'll get you a reprinted Terebinth page every day and a new one every Monday as well as the whole week of Daily Grind mooshed together every Saturday, and thanks to the guys over in The Webcomic List Forums for making me start thinking about all this. Ah, technology...
I've also started putting the comic up on this page over at WebComicsNation. As a sort of back-up, I guess it is. It's got an RSS feed associated with it, too, if you'd rather avail yourself of that.
Or if you're looking for something completely different, I'll suggest my Facebook page. I have very little idea what the whole point of Facebook is, but I was looking for somewhere to post random poetry...
The StatCounter at the bottom of the page there's fairly new as well. The other one I was using kept disappearing and even began going backward at one point, so we'll see how this one works out....
