Sickness Unto Death, And...

I had an inner ear injury.  It was pretty bad.  Life-threatening, even.  It is theoretically chronic, but odds are it will be a long time between flare-ups, and I will be able to apply the treatment immediately.  That will hopefully prevent what I had this time - more than two weeks of being incapacitated by constant dizziness.

I was afraid I might never be able to write again, because I couldn't read a computer screen.  No joke.

But I did heal, so I'm back with a small treat!  My publisher doesn't like me posting big previews, but I figure I can post two or three chapters of I Did Not Give That Spider Superhuman Intelligence.  On that note...

Chapter Le Two!

  2. Ok. Now, that is the kind of writing that jumps out at you. You gotta read it twice, to get everything, and it is still fun to re-read. I like it!

  12. labyrinthitis sucks.

    Everyone: If you start randomly getting dizzy during the day, and it gets worse and worse and more and more frequent: Go to a doctor. Labyrinthitis can sometimes be cured, or at least prevented from becoming worse. Not always though.
