Blog Blog Blog Blog Blog
By that I mean blah blah blah. It seems I have gone overboard on the blog thing. I have had ideas sprouting up all over the place. Considering how much time FanLit takes (Yes, that again) not to mention other things going on in my life – like work, kids, and having the critique group get suddenly very busy just as I become Critique Wizard – I don’t have time for all the blogs I’ve thought up. Bummer. I’m going […]
Backing Up
I have a friend who backs up her files in a big way. She saves her books under different names, and changes filenames regularly. At first I was going to tell her I did the very same thing. Then I thought a little more, and realized that isn’t true. I WANT to save compulsively, and I do change file names now and then, but it’s very hit-or-miss.

On top of that Avon FINALLY released the first assignment. Since I’ve never done this kind of contest before I had no idea what to expect. We have […]
Linkiness
I case you hadn’t noticed, I’m new to this bogging business. I have not idea what the etiquette is. Do I have to have permission to link to people? Can I sniper link? Can I remove links without giving offense? What do you think? Alice
Hi. Come on in, have a seat.
Why do I call my blog Alice’s Restaurant? For those of us old enough to remember, or have listened to it on oldie’s radio, there is a song about Alice’s restaurant. It’s a ballad about how someone dumps a huge pile of garbage in front of Alice’s restaurant, and the singer must get rid of it. A long drawn out affair involving 8×10 glossy pictures and the local law enforcement and enough red tape to cover a pickup truck, getting […]
