Crippled, Day 2, and Reprimanding my Lieutenant

[seawasp]

Despite anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, and spending yesterday almost entirely in bed (aside from bathroom visits) I am not really noticeably better. Barring a miracle today/tonight, I guess it'll be to the hospital tomorrow and I have no idea what the hell I'm going to do about work; I cannot go there, sitting is almost as bad as standing with this. If only I was a Flint or Weber level author; then I could be grumbling about the pain, but my main breadwinning function would not be potentially impaired. (what does Workman's Comp cover, anyway?)

Now, with respect to my Loyal Lieutenant: I am... disappointed, Shana. I'm not angry, no, just... hurt. Terribly hurt. You, of all people. How could you do this -- or rather, how could you NOT do this? I am referring, of course, to reviewing my work on Amazon, one of the obvious first places for publicity on these writings. Yet I see none with your name. OTHER people have reviewed both DK and Mountain Magic/Diamonds, how could you not have done so??

I hereby direct that you remedy this error at once. :)

Apologies

I gave up trying to post reviews on Amazon after my first half-dozen attempts crashed.

I will try again. Probably tomorrow, because I'm wiped today -- my dad is back in the hospital. My brother occupied the hours waiting in the Emergency Room waiting room yesterday reading _Digital Knight_. He's on the third story now. He reads slowly, so I expect he'll finish it tomorrow or Tuesday.

Sorry to hear that. :( Hope the problem can be solved.

Crashed? Were you using a wierd browser or something? I've posted Amazon reviews using Netrape and Internot Exploiter from both Mac and PC settings...

It was some time ago, so I must have been using Netscape then. Crashed may not have been the right word, but my carefully written reviews disappeared, and I gave up in disgust. Since I'm sure they've changed there servers in the meantime, and I've changed browsers, [Mozilla at home, Explorer at work] I'll try again.

For long reviews, I've always written them in a simple text editor, then cut-and-pasted to the review window; thus if it glitched in posting them to Amazon, I just pasted and posted again.
