Time flies. Timely Persuasion was released the last time February 29th rolled around, so I suppose today’s the day to celebrate on the authentic intercalary date. Sincere words of thanks and praise go out to everyone who bought/read/reviewed/referenced TP over the last 4 years. Books are written to be read (sorry, Jeff Tweedy), and each…

Of The Year – 2011
After a so so year for albums in 2010, this time around I actually have enough candidates for a proper top 10. 1. Pink Strat — Bahamas This record came out in Canada in 2009, but just came out in the US in 2011. (Yay, time travel!) Quietly snuck up on me as my go…
His Name Is My Name Too
Stumbled onto this Twitter user the other day: (Warning: link is somewhat NSFW) Not sure exactly what to make of this. Â An imposter? Â A fan of Timely Persuasion? Â Schizophrenia? Â A time traveling other me? Â Or maybe just a bona fide coincidence? He hasn’t made any updates in over a year, but from what’s there we…
3:11pm, 311s Day
Someone bought a TP eBook via Smashwords at 3:11pm on 11/11/11. I’m easily amused…
Friendly Persuasion
I’d never heard of this book/movie before last week.
Newermind Track by Track
Been (mostly) digging Spin’s cleverly titled Newermind cover album in honor of the 20th anniversary of Nirvana’s Nevermind.  Song by song thoughts: “Smells Like Teen Spirit” covered by the Meat Puppets Great choice of band to kick things off, great cover that’s both true to the original while performed in an Unplugged-ish Meat Puppets style. “In…
Ramblings VI
I seem to have hit another of those lengthy posting lags while the world gets in the way. Â Ramblings time: Been digging the new Back To The Future Game from Telltale. Â It’s essentially BTTF IV, starting off 6 months after the trilogy ends in 1986 and has Marty bouncing back and forth between 1931 and…

iPad 2 + iBookstore Optimization?
Apple’s iPad 2 will allegedly be announced tomorrow, which may explain the newest search result I found for Timely Persuasion: (At least it’s a search result I haven’t seen before.  And Google claims it was updated 1 day ago.) Wonder if this means iBooks will be getting a big promotional push to coincide with the new…
Trickshot Finale
I’ve mentioned the illustrated web-based time travel serial Trickshot a couple of times previously during its work in progress days, but now that it has reached completion I decided another full-blown post was in order. What’s the best way to tell a time travel story out of order? To tell it in order. That’s the…
