I wouldn't say I have a lot going on in my life at the moment, since I know people who have actual problems instead of my full DVR and not knowing what I am going to do on Halloween. I have had some stuff going on, however and those events have filtered their way into my writing. Just today I watched this show on Netflix called "Rise of the Hackers". It was a Nova episode mainly about the stuxnet virus. If you don't know what that is you should use The Google and find out because it's cool and scary at the same time because it was coded for one purpose, but now it's just out there and may or may not start doing other stuff. Seriously, it would be a great cyber crime plot. That's why I now want to add that aspect into my next book. I mean I already have a hero who is a human supercomputer and another one who makes living video games, so a cyber crime aspect would be pretty cool. I know enough about coding to be able to come up with something interesting, I think. This changes everything I have been outlining so it's back to the blank page.
As I mentioned in a earlier post I am putting together a collection of short stories about the SOE characters that has nothing to do with the overall storyline, it's just fun. I've written a couple now and they are pretty funny, if I do say so myself. I'm a humorist at heart so this is coming much easier to me and I'm having fun with it.
So that's what is up with me. Just needed to check in because they say if you don't blog you die. That seems a bit dramatic to me, but whateves.
