Blog Stuff

This is a long, boring note about the hopefully exciting stuff on my blog, Random Thoughts. Remember when you’re typing in the site address that it is more than one thought, plural thoughts. I would go insane if I only had one thought.

Just so you know, the only reason I password-protected this page on my blog is because it gives away what happens in a few of my stories. The only other password-protected pages or posts on my blog are (occasionally) Sphinx’s Riddle, which is password-protected because Sphinx’s Riddle is a riddle game where the answer from the last riddle is the password for the next riddle. The other posts that are password protected, such as Mauria’s Journey, I’m just not done with yet.

Now, to business. I will bullet-point my lists. The first one is of what I do have and what I don’t have on my blog, and some other important things:

I keep it G or PG-rated concerning the reviews.
There are no video games on my blog.
There is no music on my blog (or videos).
No adds on the side-bars.
Not many images except in Minny Gallery and a few other posts.
All my photos (except for maybe two) do not have people in them (I don’t like photographing people). The pictures are of animals or nature.
If I talk about a site in one of my posts, just assume it’s a fictional site (or newspaper, etc.).
I do not have more than a few links to other sites on my site, and if so, then I have reviewed those sites
I keep my writing clean.
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All the views and imaginative stories I share on this blog are MINE, and MINE alone, except for… see appendix three.
I NEVER write romance stories (the hugs, the kisses, ick!!!).
Alexander III of some country in Europe back thousands of years ago (I think it was Scotland, and I think the date was 532 A.D.) rode his horse off the edge of a cliff in the middle of the night and died (supposedly).
The bullet-point before reminded me of something – my stories are not usually about death, but sometimes people die; see appendix two.
I don’t write about video games or other boring things like those. I actually write a little against them in a post… see appendix four.
There are no supernatural things mentioned in my blog posts except for… see appendix five.
Also, as a final note, my stories do not usually contain any described-in-depth violence, although they do have drama, so most people can read my stories after or before a meal, unless they’re anti-drama.
This is a family-friendly blog as long as you don’t have any family members who are the no-nonsense type. WARNING: they’ll start pulling their hair out even if they just read this post, it’s so non-sensicle! Also, as a note, the details described in The Unicorn Puzzle you may not want to read to a three-year-old before bed, they’re really dramatic.

Now, about what’s on my blog in the categories, and what I write about:

I have a whole bunch of book reviews under the category ‘book reviews’. 🙂
My book reviews are about books I’ve actually read. 🙂
With the exception of my book reviews and a post here or there, like There’s a Bug In the Computer!, I write exciting, dramatic, and strictly fictional posts. Why? I can’t write otherwise – not very well, at least.
In my fiction writing, there are not usually evil people or things. There are some exceptions, see appendix (no, not the body part) number one.
I know how to do at least basic grammar, and if I ever have a post with nonstop typos, I’m just joking and having fun. Most of my posts are not like that, though. All of the posts under the category Not So Little Stories have correct grammar and spelling with the exception of a secret code and a few typos I bypass accidentally in my edits.
I love blogging (sorry, that random thought just slipped out; I’ve been holding them in all this time).

More about the stuff on my blog:

Some of the stuff on this blog may seem mind-boggling, but not most of it; at least not to me.
Onion can help take the burnt taste out of burnt rice.
I TRY to communicate. 🙂
The water in the USA goes down the drain clockwise, but counter-clockwise in China.
All my stories are complete, with no cliffhangers unless there’s a post that follows that one to continue the story. The only exception is The Way the World Went Topsy-turvy.

Now it is time for the appendixes:

Appendix One

The Day the World Went Topsy-turvy has an evil fairy mother in it (it’s my version of the story of Cinderella). The evil fairy mother turned Cinderella’s sister into a robot (process not described). She also locked Cinderella up in a dungeon trying to starve her (it didn’t work, read the post or appendix five for more). The fairy mother went to a ball called the Pompeii ball where she and other evil fairies (not described) scheme and dream, and then carry out their evil plots (after the meeting). And that’s about all that the evil fairy mother does.

In The Unicorn Puzzle, there is a dramatically described sea serpent sort of creature, with evil eyes (described in depth). Besides saying that it wraps itself around a boat like a boa constructor (for dramatic affect on readers), no violence is described. Note: it is not a bedtime story for some people.

Appendix Two

In The Unicorn Puzzle, some men from a ship where the main character is a prisoner jump overboard to get to some bird-women who are singing. They die, although I do not say so. Also, an entire boat of men drown or are eaten (the details of them dying not described, only the boat breaking apart described).

In Shooting Star, an old man’s wife and daughter are dead – but don’t worry, the story shows that the bright light of hope can even reach the darkest and deepest pits of despair (yeah, I like drama).

Appendix Three

(as a continuation of the statement afore…) … the slider at the top right-hand corner, and the post Floating in My Tin Can, both by jtsullivan. The slider is about a girl named Heather. It’s a comic strip. There is also a slide featuring one of my stuffed animals and a sock. And a slide about a mouse and a TV, and all the lies that are on television. The mouse is wondering how people can possibly believe it. Can you?

Appendix Four

The Unicorn Puzzle and How I Came Up With It, at the end of the post, states that I do not think video games are constructive work – writing the script for one is, but not playing one unless it’s just to test out a script or learn about how others put together their scripts.

Appendix Five

There are not many supernatural things in my posts. It is fiction, though, and I do sometimes write fantasy fiction. Like in The Day the World Went Topsy-turvy. And The Unicorn Puzzle. But that’s about it.

IF YOU KNOW ME, YOU CAN ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU LIKE.
