Cheap Hits

The first Carnival of the Gamers is now available at Buttonmashing.com. Don't forget, I'll be hosting the second-ever carnival on June 9, two weeks from now, so go ahead and start sending in your pieces. I've got some good ideas for the presentation, I think. In the meantime, I intend to get involved in more Carnivals if possible. It's a good way to get writing out there, and also to read people who you might not otherwise be aware of--I've found some very nice writing through the Skeptics Circle and the Carnival of the Godless.

Meanwhile today, I've got a couple more things to write about, including the second in my series of Metro propaganda. I'm still working on my story, although it's going to be delayed--the focus is less gimmick than my usual ramblings, and so I'm trying to reach a higher level of wooden characterization, forced plotting, and stilted prose.

UPDATE: I just remembered, I really need to provide an e-mail for Carnival submissions. So if you want your work in the Second Carnival of the Gamers, send a link to your post to gamers@milezero.org. I'm setting up the mailbox now, and I can't wait to hear from you.
