You have no chance to survive make your time – WHAT YOU SAY!!!!
Okay, not really. But after some consideration, I’ve decided to take the summer off from blogging. Looking back at the last few months of posts, I feel like I’ve lost my blogging mojo (maybe it’s to be expected after 5 years?) I haven’t been reading enough to have anything interesting to say about books, when […]
I updated WordPress, then messed around with the theme a little bit … and broke it all. My Lazy Meljean theme files were just gone, the main site was gone (eek!) and it was a big mess. So I finally did what I’ve been intending to do for a while (although I had wanted to […]
Is it really geeky to admit that I love love the music to this, or just an admission of bad taste?
don’t panic! You just have to go in and re-activate your old theme after you’ve updated. I just upgraded, and a few things did go crazy (like the random symbols splashed through my posts.) The fun comic book smileys aren’t working, and won’t until I edit the page again … which probably won’t be until […]
…except my stupid internet. 2007 shall be remembered by me as the Year of the Shitty Connection! (the exclamation is important.) My computer would connect everywhere but at my house (where I resorted to using dial-up from my old university account (26.4 kbps!! WTF? Do they still make them that slow?) that couldn’t actually send […]
I’m having massive huge problems with my e-mail lately. Not just because I’m slow answering them due to me being offline for two weeks, but stuff being delayed way too much when I do send them out — and as of this evening I can’t even log on. So, temporarily, I’ll be at meljean.brook at […]
Okay, I can’t keep up with all of the people on message boards who are hotlinking to Capt Kirk and He-Man, so I had to block all outside access to my image files. Which unfortunately means some legitimate hotlinks (mine, and those who are linking to my covers and stuff) will get blocked, too. If […]
While looking for something in an old file today, I ran across some stuff I wrote while I was trying to determine exactly how I would a) get Colin’s backstory across, b) share some worldbuilding information, and c) show what had happened in Caelum, and in the months between the end of Demon Angel and […]
Except it might cause a few problems in the early days. If you have an image from me that has suddenly been replaced by this: let me know, and I’ll see what I can do to fix it. It should only be blocking from myspace (where quite a few strangers like to hotlink to He-Man), […]
I’m getting lots of spam for cartoon and comic porn. I wonder if it’s because of the content of my site? I’ve also gotten a lot of publishing spam (it says it’s about publishing, but the links are for Cialis or something.) Backdated posts are starting to (slowly) show up on the sidebar. The first […]
I’ve finally updated my Myspace page and added a link to the sidebar. I’ve been fiddling around with it for a couple of months, but never quite finding a layout or anything that I liked … and I’ll admit that I’m resistant to it, because the interaction is so odd. And I haven’t been a […]
I was frustrated by the limitations of Photoshop when I was making some new ad banners for DEMON MOON (can’t animate stuff as I’d like — I had WAY too many layers going on) and I was thinking ahead to trailers and stuff like that … so I downloaded a trial version of Flash software, […]

Finished the Extras page, and the Demon Angel behind-the-story. There’s more that I can and will add, with more time and if questions start to come in — but not yet. ‘Cause I’m tired, and not sure yet what people are interested in. Demon Angel has been showing up at bookstores — I’ve received several […]
