Kovalchuk Contract
Assuming 10 year period is fixed what is the maximum amount per year would you pay Ilya.
8M$ for 10 years. By the way, it will be interesting to see if Kovalchuk becomes the first UFA to be signed to a very long contract. All the previous monster contract (Yashin, DiPietro, Ovechkin, Crosby, etc...) have been with players already with their team, which makes sense. You want to know who you're in bed with before signing a contract !
I don't have a problem giving him $10 million or whatever he is asking even if it does seem to be overpaying comparing to other stars of this league.
Every team as a few players that are overpaid by a million or two. I say I rather have one of those 'overpaid' players as the best player in the team rather than a goalie who can't get on the ice or top 6 winger or defenseman that isn't producing.
Also if it means that the team will have to get rid of the internal cap then it shows me that ownership are serious about playoff ambitions. The NHL has a salary cap to restrict team spending, I don't understand why Thrashers need to further restrict themselves compared to the other 29 teams in the league. I know that currently the Thrashers are making a loss due to poor attendance and season ticket sales but I am pretty sure the Atlanta Spirit Group is making a profit through it ownership of Philips Arena which more than offsets any loss the Thrashers are currently making.
9.5 a season
I can see Kovalchuk getting a 100million dollar contract.. 10 for 10...and i would have no problem with that. People on these boards seem to think we cant build a team with him making 10 or 11 per year, but look at Washington (or SJ...etc.) who is one of the best teams in the league with AO making 9 per and a ton of overpayed players. As long as we are smart but not necessarily too cheap either we will be fine. Overactions by so many of you:shakehead
There's a new sheriff in town! :golfnana:
I'd give him 10 per. I am hoping that he'll sign for less obviously.
A lot of folks say he's worth 8-9 million but that 10 is crazy. To me, there isn't really a huge difference between the two. I mean is 1-2 million a season on the payroll going to be the difference between a cup contender and a cash-strapped cellar dweller? Besides, with inflation and all 10 million might not be that bad of a deal for Kovalchuk in 5-6 years.
Respect lol. Good Ol Jimmy.:yo:
I'd like to see $9 million at 10 years, but I think he'd have signed already if this were agreeable.
Hopefully, the organ-eye-zation won't sign him to the league max. I can't see how that wouldn't handcuff the team in the future.
the cap is going down next year, so many teams will be very careful on term, only way hes gonna get into 6+ years is in a major market with no money issues (i.e. tor,mtl,nyr,bos,phi) 4 out of those teams lack cap room, and the other one, lacks anything worth while to trade for...
in my opinion, hes going to the salary capless KHL, for 15 million per season, salary paid by some Russian oligarch....
Still amazes me that we're talking about paying a guy $100 million to play a game when cops in my town only make around $40,000.
The deal is you can't just give Kovy a blank check. It hamstrings the franchise from building and retaining around him. Granted, I'm looking at the difference between 8 million and 10 million. That's one, maybe two players. Still, it's something to think about.
It also amazes me that we're talking about a $10 million being a big contract. That's miniscule in other sports.
According to the poll, $9 million seems to be Kovalchuk's worth among us Atlanta fan which seems to be 'only' $1million away from what kovalchuk was originally asking. If I was DW/ownership, I would bit my tongue and just sign him for $10 million.
Ilya on the other hand, and after witnessing a 9 game losing streak, 17 including last win in regulation may have a change in heart and that money may not matter anymore.
Lol at being surprised that Kovy doesn't play defense. If that surprises you than i wonder what else surprises you.... I'll take 50 goals every year and walk away the clear cut winner.
Hossa really screwed the Thrashers over the summer.Kovalchuk has played with him and knows he is better than Marion. This is what he'll want to base his contract off of.
Hossa got a ridiculous contract, so Kovalchuk has the potential to receive one of the biggest in the league.
I'd give him 8 million per year, and not a penny more.

I have now owned three i-phones. They are the greatest gadget i have ever owned! However the I-phone 4 & 5 are the worst phones I have owned. The I-Phone 4 dropped signal on almost every phone call! It became a common joke amongst my friends that the phone would lose signal on almost ever call. When I went into the Apple shop with my 4 they agreed and one of the agents showed me if you hold the phone in the wrong place that it would lose signal. I really struggled to buy the i-phone 5 after owning the 4 and this one does appear to be better for signal strenght. However the new connector than does not work with any of my docking stations etc is a real over sight for apple. Why charge £25 more for the adaptor!

Reports are surfacing that IGN has made significant lay-offs to its main U.S. operation.
Joystiq has published an internal memo sent by News International-owned IGN president Roy Bahat announcing layoffs. It does not detail the number of staff affected, although it does state that the company is "doing well".
The memo says, "Today's a hard day at IGN. We've had to reduce the size of our organization and are eliminating roles today in every part of the company. We are making every effort to be compassionate and fair to the people whose roles we've eliminated."
It continues, "We're doing this to reduce costs. While we've been doing well -- we're profitable and our audience continues to grow -- we're still feeling the effects of the economy, and we need to make sure we can invest where there is opportunity...The difficult actions we're taking today get us to where we need to be."

This was just an ok play, compared to the last 2 plays I saw at this venue, " Going to St Eves " and " Doubt " it just wasn't as good as the the others.
The theater was great, very accomodating for seating as I had bought an additional ticket to the 3 already purchased and they were easy about seating all 4 of us together!
LOVE the Gloucester Stage and will continue to go back!

The acting was better then the show. I'm amazed this has been running close to 20 years in London.

I'm an avid reader of Shop-Eat-Surf because it's really the only online newsletter that I have found that is not only industry related, but also because it's not so "guy-centric." I find that a lot of the information I read on the site pertains to my business (as a swimwear designer) and keeps me up to date on what other companies and other women in the industry in general are doing which is not only inspiring but also helps me gauge the future direction of my business as well.
I feel privileged to read the Executive Edition because I know I am getting insider industry information before it hits the mainstream media channels. And it's always good to know what my friends are up to in the industry.- By Monica Wise, Founder, L*Space
It is common knowledge in our industry that there is one undisputed leader in reporting on the topics, businesses and trends that impact all of us the most, and it is shop-eat-surf.com.

Details on Industry Insight.
I talked to Al Crolius, Senior Vice President of the Action Sports Group at Source Interlink Media, to find out more about the changes at Surfing and Surfer.
We ended up talking about the changes and much more, including some investments the titles will make next year to grow circulation and how revenue will turn out in 2009.
Al said he wanted one publisher over both titles for some time, especially since one advertising sales staff handles sales for both publications. As a surf media company with different platforms, it didn't make sense to have two magazine publishers competing against each other, he said.
However, with two strong publishers, both with close ties and in-depth knowledge of the industry, he could not ask one to go.
Then recently Rick Irons told Al he had an opportunity to become the global brand manager for Dragon, and it allowed Al to make the change organically.
The editorial staffs will remain completely independent, Al said.
I asked Al the question that many people ask who don't completely understand Surfing and Surfer. Will the magazines ever merge?
Al said absolutely not. Both are very profitable, he said, and appeal to different demographics. Surfing, with a paid circulation of approximately 93,000, appeals to a younger demographic that is also into music and other pursuits. Surfer, with a paid circulation of approximately 95,000, is more traditional and covers all aspects of the sport.
The magazines are the No. 1 and No. 2 surf titles in the market, Al said. The subscriber overlap is small and both make lots of money. Why combine them and allow a competitor to slide into that No. 2 spot?
"That would be the craziest business decision we ever made if we even considered it," he said.
I asked Al how 2009 will turn out for the magazines. He said 2009 revenue numbers will be lower than 2008 but not dramatically. In the spring, he had thought the year would turn out much worse then it did.
Al said he's seeing some positive signs in the economy and in the magazine business that gives him hope 2010 will be better.
In the meantime, Source Interlink is investing in Surfer and Surfing in 2010. It is dedicating extra money to grow paid circulation for both magazines, with the goal of reaching 100,000 for each title. The group plans to work with its advertising partners to identify potential subscribers from their enthusiast lists, send additional mailings to expired subscribers and increase the number of copies at newsstands in areas with strong surf markets, among other strategies.
The company may also improve the paper quality for each title.
Al said Source Interlink's bankruptcy is actually allowing the company to make more investment in the magazines. Because the company's debt was lowered during the bankruptcy process, it has more money to invest in the business.
"The (bankruptcy) reorganization turned out to be a good thing," he said.

The Space
Our apartment is in the heart of the popular Friedrichshain district directly at the Boxhagenerplatz. The neighbourhood has everything to offer that you would expect from Berlin: lively streets, big variety of bars, restaurants and night clubs, and lots of Berlin art and culture. With the subway station Warschauerstr only being a short walk away, the apartment is well connected to the subway grid making it a convenient spot to explore the rest of Berlin. The "Party Tram" M10 is also close by and will take you in just 10 minutes to the popular district of Prenzlauer Berg.
The apartment is equipped with everything that you would need for a comfortable stay in Berlin. The apartment was built in a typical Berlin style around the turn of the century. It has charming wood floors, high ceilings and large windows. The apartment is totally equipped and is situated on the first floor of a quite and nice courtyard.
The living room has a comfortable pull out couch for two, a new flat screen TV, DVD player, stereo system, and a WIFI free of charge. The separate bedroom has a queen size bed. The kitchen has everything that is needed for cooking meals and making breakfast. The bathroom has a large shower.

Seit dem 1.1.2014, erhebt die Stadt Berlin von allen Privatreisenden eine 5% City Tax auf die Nettomiete (Gesamtmiete abzüglich Reinigung, MwSt., Gebühren).

Nettomiete 150 Euro x 5% = 7,50 Euro

Key holder arrived on time and an issue we had with the wi-fi was quickly resolved. The apartment was good and as advertised, however the entrance and hallway were not well maintained and are very unwelcoming. Appreciate these are common areas but it is in the interests of all owners to keep these areas looking good.
The apartment is in a great area, loads of restaurants and night-life.
Die Wohnung war genau wie beschrieben. Zweckmäßige Ausstattung. Alles hat nach Plan geklappt. Zentrale Lage Nähe Boxhagener Platz. Ruhige Nachbarschaft.
Die Lage der Wohnung ist TOP, für einen Berlin Aufenthalt bestens geeignet. Cafés, Restaurants, Kneipen in unmittelbarer Nähe. Die Wohnung ist sehr ruhig gelegen, wir haben uns super wohl gefühlt und kommen bestimmt wieder. Danke an Ben und Monika für die schnelle und unkomplizierte Kommunikation.
Spacious, modern and very clean appartment in a great neighbourhood. Lots of restaurants, stores and bars in the area and a walking distance to some of Berlins best clubs. Because the appartment is located in a courtyard behind other appartments it is nice and queiet because it's isolated from the noises that come from the street. Also the pull out couch was surprisingly comfortable.
We had a great time staying here. We had the smoothest arrival and departure you could ask for; we found the place in great order and totally ready. Our hosts were prompt and responded helpfully to our questions and requests both before and during our stay. The neighbourhood was quaint and charming. The underground stations were a bit of a walk (15-20 mins at our pace), but not inconveniently so. The building's exterior and hallways were a little rough and shabby, which kind of took us aback. Nevertheless, the apartment itself was just as advertised: clean, central and comfortable. We would happily stay there again.
Sehr schöne saubere Wohnung, genau wie beschrieben. Bei Ankunft war die Wohnung schon vorgeheizt. Unkomplizierter und schneller Mail Kontakt mit dem Gastgeber. Wir waren rund um zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder!
Great apartment which had everything we needed. All was well arranged, apartment was even heated when we came. Thanks!

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - For the second year in a row, West Virginia University men's basketball senior Kevin Noreen has been named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Honors Court.
The NABC Honors Court recognizes men's basketball student-athletes for their hard work on the court and in the classroom. A record number 895 student-athletes from 335 colleges and universities earned the NABC Honors Court distinction.
A native of Minneapolis, Minnesota, Noreen graduated in May with a 3.7 GPA in sport management. He is currently pursuing a master's degree from West Virginia in industrial relations.
"It's an honor to receive this academic award from the NABC," says Noreen. "This means a lot to me because it shows the amount of time and work that I've put in the classroom as well as on the basketball court."
Last season, Noreen played in all 33 games, starting 20 of those contests. He averaged 2.0 points and 2.7 rebounds per contest.

Courtyard By Marriott Broadway
Courtyard By Marriott Broadway
Hotel Guest Rating: 7.5/10
1351 21st Avenue North
Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
Welcome to the Courtyard By Marriott Broadway
Free parking, complimentary Wi-Fi, an outdoor pool and fitness center make the non-smoking Courtyard By Marriott Broadway in the heart of Myrtle Beach a good choice for Priceline guests who want to be near the action.
Hotel Features
The 135 rooms in the four-floor hotel are furnished with plush bedding and oversize arm chairs. Amenities include free wired high-speed internet, phones with voicemail and flat-screen TVs with pay movies. Wi-Fi is available in hotel public areas. Fuel up for a day of beach-going or sightseeing with the on-site cafe's buffet breakfast (for an additional fee). And when it's time to relax or re-energize for the next day, check out the outdoor pool and the well-equipped fitness center. Conveniences for guests include business services, a concierge desk, news stand/gift shop, guest laundromat, valet dry cleaning and free parking. Meals can be delivered from local area restaurants.
Hotel Location
Located one mile from the Atlantic Ocean, the hotel is a half-mile from the Myrtle Beach Convention Center and business district. Take a nine-minute stroll to the shops, eateries and entertainment of Broadway at the Beach, or a four-minute walk to watch the Myrtle Beach Pelicans at Coastal Baseball Field. Ripley's Aquarium and Myrtle Waves Water Park are one mile away, and bargain-hunters won't want to miss Tanger Factory Outlets, a 16-minute drive. Myrtle Beach International Airport is four miles from the property.
Guest Favorites

I've been seeing a lot of people panicking over the new royalties deal Amazon is rolling out. This article may help straighten out some of the misconceptions a few have out there. I hope it helps…
Originally posted on David Gaughran:
Are you scared yet? Because you should be scared. Something really bad is about to happen. It affects all of us.
Our livelihoods are at risk. The ability to support our families. It's just over the horizon. It could happen any minute. It's coming for all of us!
I've been around for long enough to know that authors can be a skittish bunch. Probably something to do with our over-active imaginations, with an assist from that old writers' favorite: the whiskey brunch.
More seriously, we are going through a period of unprecedented change so it's perfectly normal for people to be a little fearful. I think the disruption we are all experiencing is greater than that which has been faced by similar industries. In fact, I think the transition from print book to e-book is akin to going straight from vinyl to MP3, with all that…
View original 1,112 more words
Some months back, I talked about Kindle Select and Kindle Unlimited and how I did not feel comfortable about having my e-books available exclusively in Kindle form. For those unfamiliar with what was discussed, here's a quick explanation. In order to be part of Kindle Select and Kindle Unlimited, your book cannot be available in any other e-book format (Nook, Sony, Apple, etc.). This of course means your the e-version of your book cannot be up for sale through Smashwords, Nook, and other e-formats. This did not rub me the right way at the time, but since then there as been no activity for either of my books through Smashwords, Barnes and Noble, or other outlets besides Amazon in spite of a lot of promoting on my part.
But then another disturbing trend began to appear. I started seeing my books selling on Amazon and I began hoping this meant a growing trend in sales. However, there was a problem. In spite of the sales I was not seeing any royalties, which puzzled me greatly. After waiting a few days and seeing this continue to happen, I delved further into the matter and discovered that ALL the recent sales were returned either the same day or the next day. Wondering how this could be happening I quickly learned that a number of individuals have been purchasing e-books, reading them in one day, and then returning them for a full refund. In short, turning Amazon into a sort of 'library' where they could get a good read and then return the book without paying a cent in the end.
Now, I fully understand that sometimes people can buy a book that turns out to be nothing of what they expected and would like their money back. This is something Amazon and other companies do allow. However, to abuse this privilege and claim 'It's my money and I'm entitled to a refund…' repeatedly is a real problem. Every author I've seen on Amazon makes a portion of their book available for free so prospective buyers can get an idea if the book is something they'd like to read. I myself make about 16% of my book available as a sample so people can decide if this is something they want to buy or not. Yet, a number of people have instead turned Amazon into a revolving library that they don't have to pay for.
Having lost out on a number of sales, I decided that if my book was going to be treated as if it was part of a library, I wanted to get something for my efforts. So with no sales happening on all other fronts, I took my books down and enrolled them exclusively with KS and KU. Now once you've enrolled in KS, your book is also available in KU where you earn money every time your book is borrowed and people read it. However, starting July 1st, this is changing to paying the authors for every page read, which benefits those who right longer books instead of putting out a bunch of really short works which had been the case before.
Now I've only joined recently and have yet to see much activity, but I'm hopeful. I think a lot of people have held back because I advertised a "FREE" weekend where almost 400 people grabbed their own Kindle copy of "The Bridge". This coming weekend, I'll be offering "The Ship" for free as well. From there, we'll see how the 'borrowing' goes and if there's any increase in paid sales. I'm hoping that as a result of all these giveaways will increase the reviews for both books and will lead to actual purchases or paid borrows through KU.
I don't know if this approach will help or hurt, but sometimes you have to try something different. As for those who do not have a Kindle, I do have e-copies of my books in E-Pub and PDF formats and will sell them to you personally. The price is the same as at Amazon $2.99.
*Final note: Amazon has been starting to flag and shut down some of these serial-returners. But there are a great number of them out there and decent authors are suffering for it. Hopefully an answer will present itself and I can put my novels out there in other formats for you all. In the meantime, my contract with KS and KU is only for three months. If I don't like what happens I may pull the books out and put them back up on Smashwords and other places, we'll see.
I hope my experiences here are providing you all with insights of what to watch out for as you decide what format to put your own books in. There are many pitfalls and unforeseen issues, but hopefully being warned about what could happen will help you navigate and avoid them.
Until next time, take care and keep writing.

The band called the All-American Rejects, wrote a song called "Move Along" which has always stuck with me. It did so even more when I saw the video which at one point involves a member of the band falling backwards into what appears to be an empty swimming pool. But just as he's in mid-air, the scene shifts to a side view where we see a bunch of hands rise up out of the empty pool to catch and support him.
That's what a lot of you have been doing for me since my last entry and I want to say a huge "THANK YOU!" So many of you encouraged me saying, "You'll find a way forward…" or "Are you absolutely sure there's no way to unite the two ideas, it sounds awesome?" These comments came to me here, on FB and over on Google+.
After reading all this feedback and dwelling on the problem I finally realized I was dealing with another "Rubik's Cube" (For those not familiar with what I mean by this, here's a link to an entry I did a while back about writing and Rubik's Cubes: Writing and Rubik's Cubes).
So I took a few steps back and gave the problem some thought…
Okay, I gave it a LOT of thought…
Eventually, I came to a realization… I thought I had only two paths because both led to storylines that I already had planned. In short, I had become paralyzed by my own vision of what I wanted to have happen in my series. But those stories had not been written yet, nor were they cast in stone. I was still in command. The Para-Earth Series was mine to create, and design however I wanted. The important thing was to make the journey interesting and entertaining for my readers, which many of you have told me repeatedly I do very well.
So instead of choosing either of the two paths I had before me, I did something else…
I grabbed the road I was already on and took it in a whole new direction which allowed me to marry the two ideas and make them work. It took a lot of thinking on my part but I've done it. The mysterious carnival people and Nathaniel will be appearing in "The Door". There will still be many unanswered questions about both, but in Nathaniel's case a lot of those will be answered in December. As for the strange people from the carnival, their time is coming as well. You will see more of them in upcoming books before meeting them personally. But meet them you will my friends. They're story may actually become an anthology of short stories written from the point of view of one who will join their ranks because it will be the only place he can be safe. You will also learn how the carnival's origins are connected to the ghostly Brandon, who watches over Cassandra, and will have all his secrets revealed in "The Door".
There are plenty of surprises in store for you all within the pages of this novel in progress. So stay tuned.
But for now I want to say, "Thank you everyone, for supporting and believing in me and my abilities as a writer." I will always do my best to create stories that will take you places you never expected, and make you laugh and even cry along the way. But always, I'll try to deliver a good product that leaves you feeling elated and full of wonder at the end.
Until next time… take care of yourselves and keep writing.
And one more thing. For those who are interested in checking out the music video for "Move Along" I'm adding the link just below. I find the song very helpful and uplifting at times and I hope you do as well. Enjoy…
University is done so I'm free to write once more, my computer is running nicely, and I'm full of ideas. "So what's the problem?" I hear you ask. Well… remember that blog entry I recently did about a certain 'whale' I had to let get away… (For those who missed that entry here's the link: https://akrummenacker.wordpress.com/2015/04/26/the-tale-of-the-whale-who-got-away/ ). Well, I'm finding myself in the same position once again. And since it's happening in the here and now, I thought I'd share my thought processes and reasoning with you all, in the hopes it might help you should you find yourself in a similar dilemma.
So I stand at a crossroads, trying to weigh my options about whether or not to cut a scene I truly love and think is totally amazing? I have this wonderful scene where one of my four lead characters is involved in a wreck down in the subway tunnels of New York City. She was targeted by a mysterious stalker who has been following her through "The Bridge" and "The Ship" and is now finally making his move. But even after slaughtering an entire train of people, he manages to incapacitate her only to lose her to a mysterious 'carnival troupe' whose old-fashioned train and cars are somehow appears on the scene inside those same subway tunnels. Driven off before he can take his prize, the mysterious folks of the 'carnival' take his prey to safety under the watchful eye of the girl's ghostly ancestor. Sounds great right? Plus it raises so many questions like "Why would an old-fashioned circus train (without animals) be traveling on the subway lines in the first place?" Furthermore, we would've seen these strange folks who look more like relics from an old-fashioned "Freak Show" demonstrate unusual abilities and talents.
So why would I want to remove such a powerful and intriguing scene? Because this would be the only time they show up in the book. I didn't have anything else for them to do later on. Furthermore, they would not show up again until 2-3 books from now. What good would that do my audience? I'd be leaving everyone hanging and I don't like that idea. Oh I could easily beef up their role and have them reappear several times in this book, working behind the scenes to aid our heroes, but it would wind up being a more complicated story to follow, unless I was very careful.
That is one path at this crossroads that I could follow. The other path, would lead directly into my next novel "The Vampyre Blogs – Coming Home". How would this happen you may ask. The answer is simple. Last December, I wrote a short story in my other blog "The Vampyre Blogs – Private Edition". It was a six part story (I prefer to use small installments on blogs) which added up to a novelette which I may release one day down the road. Within that story I took several characters who appear in my first two books (namely Veronica, Julie, Roy and Julie's uncle Jason) and set the clock back some fifteen years ago. In that story they met two men who aided them in finding a very young Julie who had become lost in a snowstorm and was menaced by a strange creature. One of the two men was Nathaniel Steward, my vampyre, who as you all know will have his own book coming out this December. Since he is already known to several of the characters in "The Door", I started thinking about introducing him in this novel to play a supporting role to my heroes. This made more and more sense to me since I could see him helping from the shadows at times, as well as having a scene in the epilogue which would lead him directly into his own story. This is something I've done in the previous two books. I always have a plot that leads directly into the next book, so this idea makes more and more sense to me.
However if I used Nathaniel it would mean…
…cutting the train scene beneath the streets of New York City.
Why is this so hard? Because I put so much research into laying that scene out. I checked time tables, routes, where the nearest hospital would be in relation to where I had the action taking place… the works. Yet, try as I might, I could never reconcile those mysterious carnival people with the rest of the story.
You see, I actually started "The Door" two years ago BEFORE I started "The Ship". However, I kept running up against problem after problem with the story. Which was why I put it aside and decided to explore what happened to Cassie and Julie over in Santa Cruz. That story came fast and easy by comparison and produced good results. But even after coming back to "The Door" with a whole new load of information from what happened in "The Ship", I still couldn't really see a clear path forward.
But then I thought of Nathaniel and things seem to be clicking into place. Not everything is perfect mind you. By adding him in I have to create entire new scenes, but I feel like the road is a little more clear for where the story should go.
As you can tell, I've pretty much made up my mind where I'm going. It's just really hard to let go of that "train wreck scene". But I'm going to anyway. I thought about combining Nathaniel and the carnival people, and have him appear on board that mysterious train, but his presence there is too much of a coincidence. It makes more sense to have him appear at Jason's old house since he has a history with the deceased and has come to pay his respects. Plus it gives me more room to have him interact with Julie who has known him since she was little and is now wondering why he hasn't aged at all in fifteen years. Will she learn the truth that her late uncle knew about Nathan's true nature? If she does how will she react to this revelation? And what part will he play in this story before all is said and done? You'll have to wait and see.
And for that matter so will I. The thing about writing is sometimes there's not a road or path before us. So we writers have to make one ourselves, one that is right for us and our creations, which makes the journey so much more interesting. So until next time, take care of yourselves and keep creating those roads that have not yet been traveled my friends.

I'm sure most of you will remember that I got some business cards for "The Vampyre Blogs" which I will be releasing in December of this year. I know a lot of people wished me luck and were curious to find out whether or not I've seen any difference in the traffic to the ongoing blog that goes by the same name.
So today I'm taking the opportunity to tell you what's happened in the two weeks since the cards arrived. As you can guess, I began handing out cards up at the university the very next day. I left some lying around in the coffee shop area, as well as in the lounge where students hang out to be found by anyone who happened to sit down in either of those areas. I also handed cards out personally in my classes saying, "Here's some free reading you can enjoy during the summer break, especially if you like vampires…"
Very few people declined, while others asked for extra cards. They became even more excited when I explained that what they would find at the blog site were basically short stories by the characters who would appear in the novel itself. You should've seen the smiles on their faces widen when I assured them that the book was going to be a brand new story in and of itself and not a compilation of the short stories they'd be finding on the site. One person smiled and shook her head saying, "Too bad you went with vampires and not zombies…" At that point I smiled back and told her, "Well, actually there will be a type of zombie involved that the vampyre will be battling…" and that was as far as I got because she was already trying to bring up the blog site.
As for actual views on the site, in the two weeks since I first started handing out the cards I have seen an increase in the traffic already. Normally the site averaged around 200-225 views per month. April ended with 340+ views and this month is coming along nicely as well. There would be days in which no one would visit the site, but now I'm seeing double-digits on practically a daily basis. Whether or not this will continue, I cannot say. But I'll keep posting new material and updating you all again in the near future.
I've also created a FB page for "The Vampyre Blogs – Private Edition" site which has already broken the 100 mark for likes and followers. I've been posting the links to the earliest entries on the blog since there are over 40 short stories to be found there. I'm also giving everyone some insight into what thoughts were in my head when I made each post. This is something I do not do on the blog site itself, since I try to let my 'Characters' do all the posting there so they can share their thoughts and experiences.
If you're on FB and would like to check it out here's the FB page link:
My next step will be to start mailing out small stacks of the cards to friends who offered to hand them out to family, friends, and coworkers. I'll be making a list of all the people who offer to hand them out for me, so when the book comes out I can give them a signed paperback copy as a way of saying "Thanks for all your support and help." If anyone here would like to volunteer to distribute my cards, please let me know, I'll be happy to add you to the list and get a stack out to you.
Remember, getting the word out about your books is sometimes way harder than actually writing the story. So make sure you start letting people know about your book, a few months before it actually comes out. But make sure it's a book that you've actually got done, and not one your thinking about writing one day. People hear that kind of thing all the time and think, "Yeah, right. You're going to write a book, I'll believe it when I see it." Let them know it's done and is just going through some final editing. Maybe even show them some cover art so they can see you ARE serious. Which reminds me, I need to get my art easel set up. I've got the first drafts done, but no cover yet.
So until next time, take care and keep writing everyone.
…Or making hard choices while revising your novel
Whenever I write a novel, or short story, so many ideas come to me that I immediately write down as I'm going on along. I have so much fun with my characters I sometimes wonder if I'm getting enough interesting scenes into the story. I start to worry that I'm having too much of a good time listening to my characters bantering back and forth to make them feel more real and alive, that I start to wonder whether or not there's enough action going on in the book. When that happens I start coming up with more scenes that help get the readers' pulses pounding.
But then when I go back to start the second draft I look back over the entire story and find that word count is much higher than I originally planned. I try to aim no higher than 120,000 words, which by industry standards is still pretty long for a novel. Mind you, even though I'm an independent author and don't have to abide by what most publishers want, I try to keep within certain guidelines such as length. Why do I do this? Because, I don't want to wind up boring my audience by not letting them get to the final climactic scene. If you take too long letting all the events you've been building up to finally happen, you could start losing their interest. PLUS… you could wind up using too many good ideas and confusing them along the way.
In my case, my first drafts usually come in at about 130-160,000 words. So I often wind up with plenty of trimming to do, which I actually don't mind. A fair amount of those excess words come from scenes where I repeat the same idea that I used earlier or later in the book, in which case I get to decide where in the story it works best and delete the other sections where it appears. Other times I'll find a scene that while extremely interesting and exciting, does not really add anything to the main story. In fact, it serves more as a distraction than anything else.
That's what happened with the fellow in this photo…
This is a whale skeleton located at Long Marine Lab in Santa Cruz, a location I used in my second novel "The Ship". As you can imagine it's quite large and has been out in the sun and rain for many years. But where it was located, really got my imagination going. You see, this fellow stands not more than fifteen yards away from a cliff that looks out onto the ocean. Mind you, there is a fence so no one falls in, which is a good thing because it's a sheer drop down onto some nasty rocks far below.
In fact I was standing one windy day looking out at the waves when I heard a metal creaking noise behind me. Immediately my imagination went into overdrive and I could see clearly in my mind that the whale skeleton, perched on its metal poles, had begun to move. I'll admit that I quickly whirled around and saw that it of course had not moved. And while I stared at it, half expecting it to do so, I heard the sound again. This time I realized it was coming from the de-salinazation plant off to my left. But still, the idea of the bones moving and coming to life was stuck in my head and I knew I just had to use it in a story. Especially when I went to leave and took one final photo and wound up with this image
My mind was on fire. I kept picturing those bony jaws clamping down on someone and shaking them like a dog chewing on an old shoe. I had already begun work on "The Ship" and had been working on a scene that took place at Long Marine Lab, so I immediately added to the scene. I'd created a nosy reporter who was following Cassandra, my billionaire heiress, and her new love-interest Julie Cloudfoot around and decided to have the reporter be the victim. She was a tabloid journalist who was going to expose Cassie's coming out of the closet unless Cassie bought the photos showing her and Julie kissing on the beach and other places. But one of my other antagonists intercepted the journalist near the fence overlooking the ocean after the woman had issued her 'business offer' to Cassie who had just left. My villain had not wanted Cassie threatened and used some of his abilities to animate the skeleton and killed the journalist. It was a fascinating scene that I really loved, especially after the journalist was dead and the whale skeleton flung her lifeless body over the cliff and into the sea.
Yet, when I started the second draft I saw how crowded the book already was with characters who really mattered. Plus, there were already so many good scenes that were more relevant, that this scene became a distraction. So I copied and pasted it into a separate file where I keep other fragments of work, and saved it. (Does this sound familiar to everyone? It should, I keep telling you all to save any scenes you remove from your stories because they might prove useful in another story with other characters)
So the other day I came across these photos of the whale skeleton again and started thinking about how I had to let that scene go. I still wanted to use it in another story, but I couldn't imagine how I'd make it happen. Julie and Cassie, along with most of my characters were back on the East Coast and I had practically no one left out in Santa Cruz, then I remembered Julie's younger brother Johnny. Johnny had been introduced in "The Ship" and had played several crucial roles in that book. By the end of the story he was still out here in Santa Cruz, because he was a student studying marine biology and sometimes helped out at Long Marine Lab as part of his studies. He also had gotten a girlfriend named Michelle who had a secret or two of her own (those who've read "The Ship" know what I'm talking about… hint-hint). So now I'm starting to think about their story and I'm planning on recycling the whale skeleton scene with a new villain and victim. The overall tale itself will be a love-story in the vein of Beauty and the Beast, only I'll be reversing the sexes and making it more of a Handsome and the Beast tale. That will probably see the light of day in 2016 or 2017 depending on how much writing I can do and how fast I get things done.
So now you understand why I keep telling you all to save scenes that you need to remove from one story. They can come in handy down the road with a bit of reworking. It's been almost w years since I wrote and removed that scene and I had no idea if and when it might prove useful. But now I have the characters and a storyline where it can come into play. There are countless other pieces of story I have saved that I will be sorting through which might come in handy too. I'll have to root through them and see what I've got. But I'll keep you posted.
You can find out other interesting things about what went on when I wrote "The Ship" on the new Facebook Page I made for that book. You can find it at:
That's al;l I have for today. Until next time, take care everyone, and keep writing.

I order several parts for a Chevy Geo that my daughter and her husband owned. They had drove the car from Michigan and there were parts that were needed to get them up and running in good shape. After spending several hours on different web sites I found Go-Parts.com. Go-Parts.com had the best choice of the parts I needed and the best prices. Needless to say the shipping and delivery were as promised and I had my daughters car up to standards for Texas within two weeks. Thanks Go-Parts.com.
Price Quality Average: 4.5 / 5 starsI used the website to order a car part because the part was listed using Google Checkout. The part was shipped in a good amount of time. The part works as it should and I am satisfied.by ohcrapitscurti..
Price Quality Average: 4.5 / 5 starsMy '98 Nissan Quest's radiator fan seized up and and almost caught fire. I called my local Nissan dealer for a price of a new fan assy, it looked easy enough to do myself. The dealer wanted over $360 bucks. I went online, googled my part, and found Go-Part.com. They were asking for $92.95, big difference. With the warranty they give, I ordered, recieved it pretty quickly, and installed it really easily. Go-Part.com saved my wallet and my car. I will shop there again.by straightline
Price Quality Average: 4.5 / 5 starsfast shipping, good condition... good~~ thank you.by sch4400
Price Quality Average: 4 / 5 starsI ordered the Koyo Radiator for my 2002 Nissan Xterra from Go-Part. The ordering process was straight-forward. When I followed up on the order two days later to check the status of my order, it was very challenging to reach anyone in customer service...I left lots of voice mails with no returned calls. Eventually I got through and learned the part was going to be drop-shipped. What I expected would be a 2-3 day delivery based on the Go-Part shipping charts ended up taking a week--not much fun when my truck was down due to a busted radiator. The part arrived in good shape and was easily installed...I had read where others had issues with Koyo radiators not fitting properly or being too tight. This was not the case for me as everything fit like it's supposed to. All-in-all it was an okay experience. I got the exact part I wanted, but the experience left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth since it took numerous phone calls just to get someone at Go-Part to pick up the phone.by MesaXterra

Interesting aspects of the American Civil War
Ta-Nehisi Coates, a senior editor at The Atlantic, recently touched on a couple of interesting aspects of the American Civil War. First, Racism Against White People briefly looked at how Southern intellectuals argued that Northern whites were of a different race. Then a subthread in the comments on that post spawned an investigation of American Exceptionalism in History and the notion of preserving democracy in the context of the American Civil War. After all, "if a government can be sundered simply because the minority doesn't like the results of an election, can it even call itself a government?" Definitely check out the comments of both posts.
On President Kennedy, the Space Race, legacies and politics

Kennedy decided "...this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth." Eight years later the Apollo program fulfilled the task, leaving the world with a legacy that includes advances in computers and communciation, lessons in managing complex projects, technological innovations and new views of the Earth.

Jawbone UP2 review

Jawbone's redesigned the UP24, but there have been a few sacrifices along the way.
UpdatedA bigger screen, a better camera, more space - but has Motorola done enough with the new Moto G to compete in 2014?
A convertible with an impressive full HD touchscreen, detachable keyboard and ports galore squeezed into a tiny footprint and price.
UpdatedIt's as cheap as chips, but does Microsoft's first 400-class handset have the features to make it a popular choice?
Move over medium format, there's a new camera in town and it can knock you out of the park.
UPDATEDThe HTC-made Google Nexus 9 tablet is now eight months old, but still stacks up to the iPad Air 2.
UpdatedWith a 3K screen, the Aorus X5 is a positively beastly mobile PC gaming machine in both power and power consumption.
UPDATEDAsus and Intel have teamed up to make an inexpensive Android phone, and so far, it performs better than it looks.
This Alienware laptop looks the part, but it can't hit the graphical high notes necessary to be a worthy contender.
