Headed to Europe, folks. I’ll be gone from mid-June to mid-July, with the bulk of the time spent in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, with some Dublin, Ireland action thrown in to spice things up. It ended up being a bit more than $3,300, but hey–why not?
Low on time again today. There are two things of linkage I’d like to have you all see, though. First off, my good friend Tom O’Donnell just posted a few recordings on his blog–him playing piano versions of Donkey Kong and Dig Dug. Hard to explain, but awesome to listen to. Check it out.
And while I’m on music, I figured I’d let people know about Jonathan Coulton one more time. One of his songs (Re: Your Brains) came on my iPod yesterday, and I’d forgotten how much I liked it. You can listen to his stuff here. For those of you who don’t know, he’s the guy who wrote a song a week for a year, recorded them one per week and published them for free online. You can’t still get all of them for free, but the link I gave you has some of the good ones for free still. Check out the brains one. Zombies + Office = Good.
And a writing update: my list o’agents is ready. I have about 20 for Ichabod. Now I’m just working on the query and synopsis, and then . . . we’ll see. Toodle-oo.
