I wish I could feel how he feels.
I thought I would skate past the worst of the side effects, but nothin’ doin’.Last Thursday they all rose up and crushed me, and I had the most rotten weekend of my entire adult life. No sleep, none at all. It wouldn’t take much to knock me off my perch.
So this afternoon it starts agaim, Chemo & Radiation. One more week, plus two makeup days. What happens next, I have no idea.
Please keep me in your prayers. I need them like never before.
Don’t forget the comment contest! Only 500 comments to go, to reach 91,000… and after that we’ll have our annual Christmas Carol Contest.
But first things first. Win the comment contest and win jaw-droppingly spectacular prizes! Little toy army men! An autographed book! A cool T-shirt that says “If They Have to Kill Us, They’ve Lost”! You even get to choose your prize.
All readers are eligible, all comments are eligible–except for really dumb things said by liberals, profanity, commercials disguised as comments, the usual suspects.
Byron the Quokka will get a raise if this contest turns out well.
G’day! Byron the Quokka here, apologizing for Lee for vegetating in the eye doctor’s office this morning instead of blogging. Of course, for me to speak to you Thursday when it’s only Wednesday, the computer has to do its part.
So anyway, he’s sitting there with his stupid face mask on because the eye doctor is paranoid about COVID, etc., etc. And meanwhile the nuisance phone calls have started up already: I wonder how many he’ll get today. We don’t have phones of Rottnest Island. Smoke signals are good enough for us.
Well, here goes! Let’s see if the computer can publish this tomorrow instead of right now. Fingers crossed!
Looks like it didn’t work. Another piece hewn off the WordPress stone. *Sigh*
Jill at Chalcedon HQ today informed me that the first three books of my series (Bell Mountain, The Cellar Beneath the Cellar, and The Thunder King) are now available as Apple iBooks, which can be accessed via the app on your phone or ipad. I have no idea what I just said.
Anyhow, you can click the Apple icon on any of those three books, and you’re in business. Eventually all the books will be available as Apple iBooks. They’re going for $1.99.
Just in time for Christmas!
G’day! Byron the Quokka here–as “troubleshooter,” if you can believe it.
This blog is barely limping along, lately, and I’m supposed to do something about it. Like I haven’t got enough to do, founding Quokka University! I mean, we just found out the NCAA doesn’t have anything for pick-up sticks–how dumb is that?
Right! We’re playing to an almost empty house, Byron to the rescue, all hands on deck, etc., etc. And we just had a comment contest (he hasn’t yet mailed out the prizes–I hope there’s nothing wrong with him), so we can’t immediately have another one.
How about a contest to think up a really interesting contest that’ll get readers excited all over the world?
That’s my suggestion!
Consider the trouble shot.
