I have added a windows task that updates my statistics program at midnight every day so at least I am keeping a good record of what is happening. The stats show a few hundred hits per day on CTHREEPO.com and JT30.com. This is far less than my good old days where I would get 20,000 hits per day. I am not sure what has happened. (I think that I know. Facebook has pretty much replaced web browsing and people rely on Facebook as an aggregator of information.)
Erica’s iPhone is acting strange and is mostly useless. I am backing it up now and I will be doing a hard reset. This appears to be the last resort. Actually, second to last resort. I have a spare iPhone that I using to clone Erica’s phone. 1) I want to see if the problem is repeatable across phones. 2) If the spare works well, it will be Erica’s main phone.
I wrote a science fiction short story. It is the first SF story that I’ve written in over two years. I did write a short Mystery story and sold it last year, but this is the real deal. I am letting it ferment and I will go over it again looking for problems and ways to improve it. I wrote 3,000 words in one day. That’s a whole bunch of mistakes that I must have made. The problem is, that it is hard to see the mistakes I make, since I made them and my mind ignores them. I will reformat the story in a few days and go over it line by line. I expect it to go out to the big pro markets starting next week. I always start with The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction because that is the place where I’d really like to make a sale.
