Sunday 21 December
About a week or so to my Arip jab at psych clinic. Was up early. Managed to get cleaned well. Took a shower. Yet to brush. Coding going well. Frag is quite addictive. I was right to incorporate the gyroscope function. Now for the defensive canon to fire. I can do a lot of cool things with the code, just a question of responsiveness and feeling well enough to add features in.
Today is house cleaning day. Will just try to catch the scene ending bug this morning, and add functionality late tonight.
Swept the floors well and chipped off new growth of tartar under my retainer (I still have one lasered on for some reason). Coding stalled. I don’t know what to fix or where to put my debugging statements. Guessing in Update and touchesBegin.
Liew witches still abusing western children with tales of false blame. They are working round the clock and keeping fit too. It’s hard to outdo a witch with so many worried parents of newborns and sinful others. Mopping at 4pm. Having Sis’ bakkuteh for dinner so no worries cooking.
Mom had to return my curtains at the MegaMall for some reason. She was unhappy and lingered over them for a long time after they were put up.
Talked to kids about watches and my grail: the Garmin E. Have half an hour to rest in the air conditioning before resuming chores. Hope Mom is doing okay at the mall by herself. Tomorrow, I’ll need to be there to meet my relative. We may do lunch or tea, depending. I might bring him a small gift.
Decided to give my cousin my newish nib and nib holder. Both are premium. Tachikawa and Speedball. Found a box to protect it and some paper to pad it with. I still have my Isomars which does a decent job drawing my caricatures and mecha designs. I have very poor taste in color and have so far not been able to paint anything nicely, even with my art markers.
Need to sleep early tonight as tomorrow will be busy. My replica coin should arrive in Malaysia tonight. Can’t wait to feel it.
Monday 22 December
Was up early. Managed to get cleaned well. Showered and brushed. Had some jelly cake and soy milk for breakfast. UK mind forces going mad onto my mindspace. We have to dissuade them but not anger them. And I am trialing a method that should work. Hope to get some breakfast in.
Back from the mall. None the worse for wear. It was a healing outing and I left feeling good. Mom did eventually get the bigger curtains and I got my Sakura Bible markers (pigma micron). They were just over 5RM each, cheaper than Shopee.
My coin is taking a while to clear customs but it should be ready to collect tomorrow (Tuesday). Meanwhile the Liew witches and their cohorts in the west, children and babies mostly, are probing everyone for sins.
I finally fixed the iteration bugs in Frag that were causing crashes. Now it needs some streamlining so it won’t lag. Do that tomorrow. Liew witches are attacking in droves. We have confused their language and it can’t be put back easily except by me. In fact we almost killed a cat by talking to it confused-wise.
Today I received the proof of my book to be published. It is 108 pages long, as I anticipated. Could not be stretched to 200 -quite impossible. It looks professionally done and I don’t think I want to correct anything. Leave it to those who know how to sell books. I can’t wait to hold the author’s copy in my hands. I have identified 3 small errors but think they will be a signature of sorts from my imperfect hand. Nevertheless I will read thru the text tomorrow morning.
Today is 3c in the ABY. I don’t know what a beach comber has to do with my novella proof. I coded a bit more of Frag and it’s almost done. Also looked thru the proof and uncovered 10 errors. Tomorrow morning will submit the corrections. Worked out and took my meds. Feeling Good. Closing in on 2am.
Tuesday 23 December
Was up early. Managed to get cleaned well. I now spray the odor eater beforehand and I don’t smell afterwards. Need to brush and shower. Some parcels will be arriving today. Have to stay home. No CODs.
I have to read thru my novella fully before lunch and submit the corrections form circa noon. Found the 11th error. There can’t be many more. Will read half the book now and the other half after lunch.
I read through 11 chapters and found 20 errors! Hopefully the remaining 9 are clean. Had luncheon ham and processed cheese sandwiches for lunch. 5 chapters left to read thru. It may take an hour or so more. Hope to submit the proof by evening.
3 parcels are on delivery. Fantastic! I have now found 24 errors -the maximum Partridge will fix for free. Chapters 6-10 remain unchecked. May resume at 4-5pm and submit before dinnertime.
Almost 4pm. Parcels haven’t been delivered. Hopefully before 5pm. A storm may be brewing based on my Garmin’s barometer chart. Finished checking the galley proof and will send the corrections back soon. There are forces trying to affect the future based on things I do and they are growing impatient. I could potentially make 600RM a month from sales of my novella. A decent living, here in Malaysia, as I have free food and board with the folks.
It took a while to record down the 22 corrections I needed the publisher to make and to double check them before sending out the email. As customary, I got it done within 24 hours. Barneous made a much longer book and struggled with his corrections, angering the executives and managers with his scrying and witchcraft mongering.
I helped start dinner. Mom boiled some eggs. We opened a can of kurma and microwaved baby broccoli. No rice, just toasted wholewheat. Tomorrow, the folks go banking and I may receive my $100 for January. I have been spending too much of late and am getting a little low on savings. My coin got lost at the post office so I have to collect it tomorrow. Will try to go early. Frag is coming along well. But I think I will chill tonight instead of implementing the frag cannon (has 3 shots). A very odd game, I think but addictive.
Helped Dad unwrap his new mini chain saw. Yes, in his old age, he finally gets power tools. Bet he is stoked. Looks well-made, tough, and was affordable. Keelat brand. Made locally, if I’m correct.
Feel like writing just one more book but I need a good idea that carries. So many people messed up my mindspace that I can’t generate ideas or concentrate my faculties much.
Was thinking of an old coin collector starting the story. And maybe 2 other characters with much more depth. A teenage boy and girl, and somebody’s dog. I will need to write a backstory and some actuator event. Maybe the sun on the verge of exploding.
Wednesday 24 December
I received my coin and it’s nice but totally not the Athena-owl one. I got some man’s face and a horse on the obverse. But I do like the gold color and the sharpness of features. Just a fun trinket to fiddle with and not worry about losing.
I signed off on the Partridge deal and will wait for the next stage, whatever it may be. I payed a heavily discounted price for the publishing of my novella -before I knew I could write a novella(!) And I wonder how far my little book will go. 5 days till my Arip jab. Tomorrow will be Christmas.
Am taking the day off. No writing or coding, making music or drawing. Late tonight, I will be doing a bit of plotting for my longer work, circa 40k words. About the lives of 3 people, archetypes of myself and my dreams. Set against unrest and unusual experimentations with animals.
Found out my coin dates from the time of the Christian empire of King EON in Africa. Maybe Ethiopia. Circa 400AD. Reminder: it’s just a cheap replica time-waster. I made out the obverse: a chariot with a spearman in it. And maybe a hunting dog below. It was originally struck in gold.
Managed to get cleaned well and showered. Haven’t eaten any breakfast but am not hungry somehow. Will go do some characterization on my Windows machine now, just lay down some ideas, as there is nothing much to do.
Back from lunch and the grocer. Bought my shrink a pack of Guinness for circa 30RM. Not a bad deal for 4 cans. Will be making pasta tonight. Folks are going to the bank and I am thinking of starting the new book -my first full length novel circa 50k words.
Popped out for an hour to get the Decathlon carbon plate running shoes. They feel great and cost just 269RM with my 10RM voucher. When they first came out they were 499RM. I saved 230RM. My first pro running shoes. May take them for a spin later tonight. Mom started dinner without me.
Found out thru my journal, I bought my Kipruns circa 3 years ago. The new pair is better AND cheaper! Feel like wearing them everywhere as the cushioning is so good and I rarely long-walk nowadays. Can sneak in quick runs while out. Lose some weight. Think it’s a good idea.
LiLian and family are passing on thru soul magic -all the people these witchy bunch killed so hurtfully. It was bound to happen someday.
We used the analogy of chess to show the losing game the Liew witches were bringing to different parts of the board / world in mindspace. She will be defeated on Christmas day. Just took my meds. Will skip workout today as I’m a little tired. Run tomorrow and resume exercising in the afternoon.
Thinking seriously about owning an ancient Greek coin. There are some, circa 400RM. May get it for CNY next year. Ancient things are both mesmerizing and inspirational for living, carrying on the good fight.
Thursday 25 December
Last night we unravelled Mathew 24 -signs of the end of the age. It was chillingly logical, what Jesus was purported to have said in that gospel. And now I am ready to face the pits of human nature that will soon be thrown at us. Conversely, I also wondered why I don’t do evil that way? What keeps me ‘enduring’ and being saved?
Anyhow, I made a slow start to the day, brushed, drank coffee, reviewed my novella proof and am feeling good about things in general. Somehow don’t feel like using the w/c this Xmas morning. Liew attacks still coming in, subverting weaker family members. The curse of ‘Yong’ hangs above Malaysia. What could that surname mean for prophecy? Understanding suffering keeps one right minded, not trouble hearted.
Think I will be getting 4-6 free author copies of my book due to my package’s discount. These will probably arrive next year. Not sure what to do with them for maximum impact. I guess I will give away 2 copies in exchange for reviews and keep 1 or 2 for myself.
Went for a brief run. Feeling more awake and energetic. Want to head out on Friday. Maybe fix my debit card to do eBay. So I might buy an ancient Greek coin next CNY.
I caved, walked to my bank and set up my card for international use, deposited $100 to buy a really ancient looking Persian silver coin from circa 500BC. Cost quite a bit and I requested photographs. I chose this coin as it was from the time of Darius, the period of Exile, and made of precious metal. SST applied and was collected. Don’t have much savings anymore.
The Persian Siglos is related to the Daric (gold version) which were used as gifts / propaganda by the King. Thus 6c, ABY -”The stolen iPhone” -a symbol of entry into a world of business and pleasure. (w.k.chu: I-Ching: Observe the nourishing of others). The story goes that Moslems used some of these coins as payment to Christian Jews for providing them food. And that it was labelled as ‘haram’ but the need was desperate.
Soon to prepare pasta for dinner. LiLian is worried over her safety because I seem to be pushing on multiple fronts -towards the coming of Jesus. It really is about convincing multitudes of God’s desire to rule the earth and its people again while the witch tries to do the opposite. Last night’s Matt 24 talk was proof big time, so is the ABY coming true at key moments. The prophecy of iS, is that it will lead to many discovering my Christian philosophies / writings. And these are all salvation-oriented. iS itself need only be an interesting read, nothing more. And the little wisdoms in it are enough for it to be such.
LiLian wondered what the takeaways from iS are. There are 6 main ones. Morality as a past concept; Race relations can be a source of solace / comfort; A famous quote: space has speed which is why light exists as particle and wave; Time as a factor of energy transmutation; Science can be harnessed in strange and wondrous ways if we only look; The world is illogical by nature, not by design.
Following on from no.3, the speed of space affects matter to matter relationships. Energy is an acceleration in its fabric. Time exists as energy forms but is not affected by forces until that energy becomes power. For example, the solar system is orderly because the sun, most massive, draws space to itself, even far off objects are dragged by our star, albeit slightly. A mass that runs out of speed may fall into a groove of sped up space around our Sun, like 3iATLAS did. Speed turns into acceleration. Acceleration launches 3i outbound again. If planets on the solar system’s plane have no such tendency, it is because they have no such vectors, and such they spin in place due to the pull or speed on the space between. The reason there is a flat plane is because of vector pulling from the Sun. Sped up, space eventually sends the planets into the closest possible groove which is a disc. How did planets form from gas and dust? Immense heat caused fusing and when fused, these bodies escaped the sun via acceleration. Why did gas giants dominate far off? They were flung out first, and gathered vapors to themselves far away from the Sun.
Magnetism and electromagnetism. Obviously the former, with trapped electrical charges, draws space, because, like the Sun, each band of iron filings shows the grooves in space caused by waves, electrostatic-magnetic waves. Conversely, EM radiation is able to pass thru sped up space because it also draws space, but not as a magnet or the iron filings. EM is space accelerated. This is why Time divides into streams, and is why when one strobes EM (diffraction), they see waves. Kinda cool.
Brushed, took my meds. Worked out. Now almost 2am. Talked more about God. Unravelling the Liew witches. Still hitting going on. Tomorrow, I may head out in my new shoes.
Friday 26 December
Was up early. Almost immediately, assaults came from the west and their Liew witch partners. This is something serious and is being handled with care and precision. Meaning leniency and severity combined. Ultimately we hope to put forth the leniency tho right now the deterrents seem severe tho not torture or pain.
Forgot to brush my teeth this morning before heading out to lunch. We had chicken rice which was good. I wore my running shoes which were a bit too bouncy for mall ambling. Was poked in the butt but it was okay -a quick 2 wipes took care of that.
Many western kids and babies unsure what to do -to join me or LiLian’s witch forces. It’s the decision of their life. Surely they can see God’s love and where it comes from.
I’ve started my maiden novel (I have 2 novellas and an anthology of medium short stories). It’s going pretty well after some prior planning and rough outlining. Now I’m pantsing it and it looks like a solid premise. Should hit 40k words easily.
Will add a few pages a day, finish in 2 1/2 months.
Was contacted by Partridge again to say I will soon receive the printer’s copies of my book. I don’t think there will be any changes or issues with the text as I was careful. I hope they don’t ship me 40 copies to sell and make me pay 300RM for it.
Some anxiety over the quality assurance checks. Initially the editor thought my book was mediocre. But towards the end, she was somewhat moved by the text as a whole and deemed it worthwhile to print. Amazing that it comes down to the wire like this for self publishing. Now we’re hearing rumors of my book being also issued in the USA, as I predicted, just not this soon. It will be nominated for an award but miss it, not sure by how much.
Feeling anxious at this stage in my self-publishing journey. It could all come tumbling down or succeed beyond my wildest dreams. I think my next book, The Numismatist, will be better.
