1) thanks for that insight into flash fiction in SRSmiths journal. A great help
2) 365 is amazing: I have time to read (at the moment) but every so often I drop on by... thanks again

i have wanted a spine tattoo down my spine for years. i once found picture of an awesome spine tattoo. i have kept it for a long time (not to copy, but as inspiration for the amazing detail and idea of it).
Nice to finally meet the owner.

Wow! I'm terribly flattered. A lot of the credit goes to my tattoo artist, though...he sketched out the spine from an anatomy textbook, so the detail is totally his doing. It was done in one 5-6 hour session...I thought I was going to die.
I'm not one of those people who are possessive about their tattoos, so don't worry if yours ends up being similar. But a word of advice...if yours ends up using circles too, be sure you print them out on a computer to get the proportions right, and have the artist trace them onto your back. No matter how good an artist is, it's nearly impossible to freehand a circle.

Oh, the dumb blind one? That's my cat in America. My aunt is caring for him right now. He was a rescued kitten and when he was found he had an awful eye infection that somehow got to his brain, so he only has one eye and he's not very quick on the uptake. It's both sad and adorable to watch him try to make leaps with no depth perception.
I have two cats in China. They still come and go, but since I started leaving them food, they've become regular fixtures in my apartment.

I always have loved "special" animals... when a species perpetuates the life of a creature that could not survive without the support of others, I think that is beautiful. It's managing to overcome natural selection in what should be the evolution of makind: compassion.
I had wondered what had happened to the random cat that appeared in your apartment in China though.

Dur. Schroedinger. I'm using an absolutely tragic keyboard right now.
๐: 0 โฉ: 2
Plus, you're in china. I can't fault you for a spelling error in a country where you can hit the same key three times in a row and end up with three distinctly different words~ haha!

Oh, trust me. Everything on my computer (including the OS) is in Chinese. I had to download PDFs to remind me how to use the photoshop menus.
But honestly, I spell Schrodinger both ways. Those umlauts are a bitch to translate. Of course, that's even assuming I spelled umlaut correctly. I'll just go hide now. Don't mind me.

Ignore that. Damn, my memory is horrid.

I named him Jung, for what it's worth. The second one is named Schrodinger.

I hope they play fight often. That would make me bizarrely happy.

Oh, they fight. For the first few weeks, I was terrified because of all of the thudding and movement. I assumed that someone had entered my apartment (no locks out here), so when I found the cats, I was endlessly relieved.
I'm not going to worry about it until I wake up to philosophical debate. I already have an idea of how it would go, and the idea is painful enough when it's limited to the space inside my skull.

Thank you for the watch, I'm flattered. It reminds me I still need to have a proper look at critiquing Dogstar, which by the way is my favourite piece of non-Bringa prose on dA.

Kathy, thank you for the fantasically detailed critique. I'll respond to it specifically in due course, but it certainly warrents a special front-page thanks.
Your interests interest me, and I promise your work will not escape a good read.

I stalk you all on the site and forums of 365, and I shall stalk you here on dA. Be happy, stalked one!

Wah! I love the stalking!

Happened to see your forum post, happened to drop you a note, happened to come to your page and happened to read your featured deviation, which happens to be stunning. I'll give it the critique it deserves in time.
I also happened to be your 3,500th pageview, for what that's worth.

Hey, I only fav that which rocks. At least, that's how it's been in the last year.

Still around? I thought you'd be here more regularly - must have been your journal that gave me that impression. Don't tease!

Ha! The power is only on for 5 hours a day here! But indeed, updating will occur as we speak.

what manner of things do you wonder?

Such things as those pertaining to...
Have you ever caught a squirrel?
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I have not. I have caught a runaway chinchilla, though, and I imagine they are somewhat similar in their bouncy and wily ways.

You are super status, yo.
