I love Funny or Die when they get political:

Not as funny as Prop 8: The Musical, but worth it just to see Chevy Chase falling over stuff again as Gerald Ford.

I am curious about the reading preferences of Argh People, so there’s a new poll up so I can get a feel for what’s working here and what isn’t. You can select as many answers as you want or none at all (I should probably have put in an “I hate all your posts” but then why is that person reading? so no). I’m just curious as to which kinds of posts you think we get too many of and which kinds you’d like to see more of. So . . . a poll!

Meanwhile, I’m writing Lavender. She’s still alive, so you know I haven’t gotten to the halfway point yet.

And in other news, I just sprained my ankle, so there’s either going to be a lot of I’m-stuck-on-the-chaise-so-I-think-I’ll-ramble posts or a long silence while Lani waits on me hand and foot. That Lucy March, she’s a keeper.

So the copy edit is done, and I’m back working on Lavender’s Blue today, 19976 words and counting:

I’m sure this is going to work. Guilt has always been a strong motivator for me. ARGH.

So Lani showed me this fabulous new writing tool: Ticker Counter. You go to the Ticker Counter website and sign up for a free counter where you can enter the number of words you’ve done each day and track your progress. Why is this a good thing? Because if you put it on your website, say once a week, you’ll know you have to produce or people will throw rocks.

So you can do a ticker like this one:
