So I know things have been quiet around here lately – between my home life, work life, and personal projects I’ve got little time to spare right now for blogging. Which makes Twitter all the more appealing – you might consider following me there, if you’re so inclined.
Unless you live under a rock you’ve probably at least heard reference to Apple’s new iPad device, announced today. There’s a lot to be said on that topic, and hopefully by tomorrow my thoughts on it will have condensed sufficiently for me to write something cogent about it. The implications of the device are potentially wide-ranging. Or it’s totally overhyped and useless. One of those.
Until I can wrap my head all the way around this idea – a process I was avoiding until it became more reality than rumor – you’ll have to make due with this short story: Boston Delaware. I had the idea on my way home from work yesterday, and banged it into almost 7,500 words in a little under eight hours, starting last night and finishing this evening.
You can read the first draft below the fold. (Yes, I know. There is no fold.)
Fair warning: There’s cursing. Not a little – a lot. Profanity galore.
Because Some People Really Talk Like That.
