Nah, a real geek would be somebody who reread On Writing the second time carefully correlating how Stephen King describes his general memory working in the biographical bits with how quickly he revises things after drafting them in the writing-focused bits, in order to compare both with their own working methods. I remember more and that makes sense of why I need to leave things longer before revising.
Sorry to hear about the food-poisoning, Kali; my sympathies.
Enjorous:
So are we still on for this Sunday? And any ideas on the topic?
Starbeam:
Kali had mentioned wanting to talk about writing software.
Kali:
Assuming my house does not melt, given the temps lately, I'll be there. Hadn't planned on any specific topic, though I would, yes, like to get into writing software some more. If anyone shows up who knows any packages, that'd be keen. Starbeam's given us a quick-and-dirty of what Scrivner had to offer. Stupid macs! >.<
That said, if anyone has anything in particular they'd like to hash out in a chat format, tell us all!
Enjorous:
I'll be there, and I may be bringing a friend that's not from around the board, but she's an AIP like the rest of us.
