Be Back This Week
Weird Ink | July 6th 2008 by ManoDogs
Hi guys, we'll be back to somewhat regular posting this week. Just got caught at the first of the month with the holiday and it screwed everything up royally. You will notice changes in the design,... Read More... read more
AP Guilty of Plagiarism
Weird Ink | June 24th 2008 by ManoDogs
I said it: I wrote a while back about how an AP reporter literally rewrote my article on the Harry Potter trial. I was slightly flattered, though a bit upset that I wasn't even mentioned - but that... Read More... read more
Agenda
Weird Ink | June 23rd 2008 by ManoDogs
I told you we would get to a regular schedule one of these days and - knock wood! - we finally have. I could not have done this without scheduled posting, though; most of last week's entries were... Read More... read more
Health Update
Weird Ink | June 16th 2008 by ManoDogs
The surgery went-off without a hitch (so far). I am still recovering and shouldn't be typing - or on the computer at all, for that matter - yet, here I am... The worst thing is that, thanks to my... Read More... read more
The Wrist, the Cyst, the Surgery
Weird Ink | June 4th 2008 by ManoDogs
I know I don't post here as often as I should and I keep saying that's going to change (after all, it's not like I'm ever at a loss for writing/blogging discussion), but there has been a medical... Read More... read more
Agenda
Weird Ink | April 3rd 2008 by ManoDogs
I know I haven't done much here so far today, but I am waiting until later tonight so there isn't much traffic - not that there's been much, anyway. I plan to tweak the template some more, adding some new features and making things more efficient an read more
So...?
Weird Ink | April 2nd 2008 by ManoDogs
What do you think? While there are many tweaks to be made - some of which are already planned and others will crop-up as we go along - this is basically it for the foreseeable future. I am probably going to change the color scheme because this is a read more
George Lindemann
Weird Ink | April 1st 2008 by ManoDogs
Writing is a business. Blogging is a business (if you do it for money). Even though a lot of naysayers and negative people like to say we're "just playing at our computers" and "living in our own little worlds" and so on and so forth, those of us w read more
Care for the Elderly
Weird Ink | April 1st 2008 by ManoDogs
One of the most important things is taking care of your family, and this is especially true of the elderly in your clan. I have personally cared for elderly family members and it is difficult and, at times, heartbreaking. Further, when things get r read more
San Diego Sushi
Weird Ink | April 1st 2008 by ManoDogs
I am not a big traveler, nor am I big on the out-of-doors - and by "out-of-doors," I mean literally anything outside my front door! But one of the things I love to do is dine-out. Maybe it comes from the years of waiting tables and bartending - may read more
Agenda - Technicalese, New Sponsors, More
Weird Ink | March 28th 2008 by ManoDogs
As I stated before, Weird Ink is not just a writing/blogging blog, it is the Writing section of The Weirding website. As such, it has to contain more than just posts on how to improve your writing, get your blog noticed, and so forth; it has to prov read more
Feed Issues
Weird Ink | March 6th 2008 by ManoDogs
These stupid feeds! I never once had a single problem with any of my feeds through FeedBurner until Google took them over! I know I knock Google a lot - because they treat me like a bitch and they fucking deserve it - but that is the honest-to-good read more
New Design
Weird Ink | March 6th 2008 by ManoDogs
Well? What do you think? Still a ways to go, but I wanted to get this up and see what you think - and what I think. I really like it! I hate that I lost the background picture because I felt that it really tied the site together, but I know it wa read more
Getting It Together
Weird Ink | March 4th 2008 by ManoDogs
When I started this, I decided I was not going to promote and market it until it was well on its way to being a blog I'd be proud for others to see. You'll read all over the WWW as to how you need to rush right out and claim your blog on Technorati, read more
Technical Notes
Weird Ink | March 3rd 2008 by ManoDogs
Obviously, I am nowhere near done pimping the design here. I got sidetracked, working on The OddBlog and haven't gotten back to working here yet. Weird Ink is a lot less complicated all the way around - not least of all because it has far fewer pos read more
Blogging the Write Way: Bad Advice
Weird Ink | January 18th 2008 by ManoDogs
If you go to any blogging community or engine with a tag cloud, you'll notice that "blog" and/or "blogging" is one of the largest words in the cloud. For some reason, everyone thinks they have some great advice to dispense. Now, some people really read more
The "Toboggan"
Weird Ink | January 11th 2008 by ManoDogs
I love my toboggan. It is soft and black and looks really cool when I wear it. With my long hairs, it gives me that Seattle, Grunge look so popular in the 1990s. If I wear dirty jeans and an old T-shirt with it, onlookers sometimes confuse me for read more
Merry Christmas!
Weird Ink | December 26th 2007 by ManoDogs
Just a quick note to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I hope everyone is keeping warm this chilly season and finding other forms of entertainment to keep them busy and entertained in the midst of all this striking stuff. There is read more

Weird Ink | December 16th 2007 by ManoDogs
The WGA today said it would consider approaching and working with studios and production companies independently, apart from the AMPTP, who dropped all negotiations with the Writers' Guild last week. The AMPTP said the WGA was "grasping for straws" read more

Weird Ink | December 10th 2007 by ManoDogs
Hundreds of non-writing Hollywood workers took to the streets of Hollywood over the weekend to protest the WGA strike with a counter-march. Film and television workers joined the Strike a Deal march this weekend to "put a face on the thousands of us read more
Strike Negotiations Breakdown
Weird Ink | December 8th 2007 by ManoDogs
Talks between producers and WGA representatives have apparently broken down and both sides are blaming the other (of course), with producers saying the union is pursuing their own agenda at the expense of working writers and other employees of the sh read more
