Computer Troubles
Added 2022-09-30 14:45:18 +0000 UTCMy nine-year-old iMac is dying by inches. I will need to get a new computer soon.
I'm considering moving away from Mac, even though I love them.
My brother is looking for a desktop computer that will be good for my purposes and not break my budget, but suggestions are welcome. I already have a good PC laptop, which I will spend today setting up as a backup for Daisy here.
Unfortunately, this will make the next episodes of my serials late, almost certainly. Hard Way was scheduled to go up today but is not finished due to yesterday being a waste, and today is probably a wash. I'll try to have it up by Monday.
SFX would have been next, then Pete. I'll try not to be more than two or three days off schedule. I've been putting up three or four episodes a week of SOMETHING all during September, and I don't want to break the string. If your favorite serial is a bit late, please understand.
Oh, Quillian has only seven more pages, but they are all done. I may advance Q in the rotation, so I have something to post. And I've been doing a poll once a week, so I may do a few extra polls.
Hugs,
Erin

All of the above maybe?
