Farewell, beloved Squeaky -- fierce beast, fiesty friend, adored writing companion, well-worshiped cat god of A St.

May sunny porches, Cheetos, trees to climb, and BBQ scavenged from loving neighbors await you in the cat afterlife.

We'll never see his like again.
Porch drinks won't be the same without you, dear Squeaks
Memorial porch drinks with all of Squeaky's trash favorites: Cheetos, box mac n cheese, mini hotdogs w/ BBQ sauce, Korean tacos, mini lemon cakes (I know, he was ridiculous), plus good whiskey
If a stray finds you -- it was for a reason.

You can always find an excuse why you can't -- travel for work, nice things, too many pets already, no time, whatever.

If it finds you -- give it a home. Love it. Learn from it. We all need more open hearts & these old souls help us.

Just finished the new Amazon doc series "Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer"

It's remarkable. Astonishing really. Almost totally absent is the voice of Bundy, over-glorified in most things.

Instead, the women narrate. The victims. Their sisters and friends. The detectives. /1
It's about them. What it was like being a woman while Bundy was preying on women. How he got away with dozens more murders because women weren't taken seriously as victims, witnesses, investigators. How ill-prepared the society was to deal with serial attackers of women./2
It goes in depth on the guilt of the women who got away, evaded him, survived. On those who fell for his lies and games. On how they have struggled to deal with what that means. /3

"Illusions, deceptions, mirages -- she cannot truly change things"

"That's true, she can only disguise -- especially for those who want to believe the deception."

This is from the Last Unicorn, but is also a theme in the Neverending Story.

If only we listened.
"Because the truth melts the magic, always."
"Your death sits in that cage, and she hears you"

"Oh she'll kill me one day or another -- but she will remember forever that I caught her, and I held her prisoner. So there's my immortality."

This is so Trumpian.

Poking around and catching up on info ops and weird narrative lines recently.

- the bros now seem to have preemptive block-lists just like the trump-trainers and Kremlin narrative groups

- some accounts have really exposed themselves going all-in on wacko coronavirus stuff
BTW, if you don't understand why you should never source anything to a sole-source on Internet, perhaps in India/Canada, please read up on:

1- Operation Infektion -- one paper in India becomes source of conspiracy that CIA created HIV as a bioweapon

nytimes.com/2018/11/12/opi…
2 - Jade Helm: one paper from sketchy "think tank" in Canada fuels conspiracy about a US military exercise (and sounds a lot like the seeds of QAnon, to boot)

I’ve had a few followers inquire about my process #writing in 5 acts. Which I’ll talk about it in this thread. By the way, this is my process for outlining and I’m not suggesting you should be doing this or that my way is better than your way, or the only way. 1/
I definitely believe there are more efficient ways and ways of thinking that are better to getting scripts finished which is priority 1 IMO. But there are people who have long processes and if you enjoy exploring through the writing and it’s more of hobby then go for it. 2/
But in my experience the real difference between amateurs or hobby writers and professionals is professionals finish. More often than not. Professionals understand a paycheck waits at the other end but only if it’s done. Hobbyists enjoy the process and maybe they finish. 3/

How are you writing your dissertation? How did you write yours? How do you write your books? This is my method (so far). Note: I’m a historian. #writing 1/
My approach consists of 4 separate stages: 1) gathering sources, 2) reading/analyzing the sources I have collected, 3) organizing the sources and making a top down writing outline, 4) writing. 2/
Some people do research and write one chapter, and then do the same process for another. Others do research while writing. I don’t adopt these approaches. 3/

Many academics find sitting down at the computer and starting to write to be the most difficult challenge facing them. One of the reasons for this, as one of my students put it so well, is that “if I never start, then I never fail.”

Another reason academics can't get started writing is getting out of the habit of writing–or never having had a writing habit.
While tough to overcome, this obstacle does have some straightforward solutions.
Here are ten (10) solutions.

1. Make other tasks contingent on writing
An excellent way of dealing with the difficulty of getting started is to make a preferred task contingent on a nonpreferred task, as the behavior management experts put it (Boice 1983).

How to sell 1000 copies of your books in 6 months of less.
A Thread.

1. I had just completed my book. It took me several months to write a manuscript I was satisfied with. Now I faced the hurdle of selling the book

This is how I did it. You can do the same.
#writing
2. "How are you going to sell this book?", a friend asked me. I didn't have an answer. I had used a lot of money to produce the book and I was almost broke. It even got to the point that I almost cursed the day I decided to write that book.
#writing
#sell
3. Nobody I knew had written and sold books before. The only people I knew who wrote and sold books were pastors with a large congregation who bought their books. I didn't have a church, I was not close to anyone who had a large church, so I was in a predicament.
