The Thursday Theme is music.
My musical tastes can be described as eclectic, easily. My iTunes of 8600ish songs is mostly set to Random and I will gladly listen to Opeth followed by Tori Amos then Pantera followed by selected Billy Joel tunes – Rida is more of the Billy Joel fan, but there are some songs of his that I like.
Periodically…
In addition to Misty's chat tonight, I'll be in the chatroom at 8:00 PM EDT to answer Draumr related stuff.
Since our Chat Room has FOUR areas, anyone with questions can hop over to the General Chat and we'll talk.

…but Wednesday night is for chatting.
I'll be in the Draumr Chatroom http://www.draumrpub…t/flashchat.php tonight from 8:00 until 10:00 EDT.
Make sure you are registered up so you can come in and ask me…whatever!

I think one of the things that draws me to the graphic novel as an art form is jealousy.
Good description is paramount, but good description is, as we know, hard work. Too much of it and it seems like we're handing out a checklist. Too little of it and people don't really get to invest in a character. Overdoing it bores the reader. …
300 was everything I had hoped for and more.
Although I suspect the personal trainer budget was probably even more than the fake blood budget, which was already huge.

Sheesh, Myspace, why do you vex me so?
I was never good at HTML. Really. I'd cheat anyone I knew how. Dreamweaver? Check. Frontpage? Check. I'd even use Word with all of the nasty HTML garbage you'd end up with there. Rida's the webmistress, while I struggle.
So doing stuff on Myspace is turning into pain, because I'm…
Heh. Pardon the silly title, it's from an old Internet meme. I think.
I'm back on a graphic novel reading kick – comic books, he said, dryly. Rida and I visited a bookstore yesterday – the opium den for us – and each grabbed a stack of reads.
As if we don't read enough for a living, right?
Anyway, I picked up two Batman graphic…
I'm largely torn about this blog, because while it's on Draumr's blog page, I don't always have a lot to say about Draumr day-to-day.
I suppose I could have the generic blog entry as such:
1. So busy!
2. Reading manuscript. It's entertaining and it's keeping me away from projects F, G, and H.
3. Rida has remarked…
After a gentle nudge from an author, I've been eyeballing the Draumr Myspace page with an idea to improve its traffic. This is a tough proposition for me, as I really want:
1. People to find out about our books.
2. People to come here and tell our authors how much they liked their books.
3. People to come here and find out there are MORE…
Starting this Wednesday, Feb 21st, I'll be in the Draumr Publishing chatroom from 8:00 – 10:00 PM Eastern on Wednesday nights for an informal chat/hang-on. Feel free to drop in, just to say hello, ask questions, complain about the lack of virtual food and drink at the virtual bar.
