The One With D

Busy Days

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. As much as I intended not to be in this position again, I’ve found myself with several things going on at once. As a result, Smoothie is suffering, Derelict is suffering and Tango.graphics is suffering. One of the things I’m working on is D related and will be a tremendous pleasure to announce when I am able to (couldn’t resist giving a teaser). So that sort of makes up for all the misery being inflicted upon my other projects.

The rest is more about putting food on the table. My wife’s company is in a bit of a jam with government regulators at the moment, so it’s not quite certain when she’ll be picking up a paycheck from them again. To fill the gap, I’ve taken on a bit of contract work that will take me away from most things D for a bit.

One of several non-programming gigs I’ve landed is proofreading a movie script being written in English by a Korean writer/director. He intends to shop it around Hollywood once it’s complete. Whether or not it goes anywhere, it’s still neat being able to get that close to a potential Hollywood project. I can’t give any details about it, but so far it’s looking like quite a fun script. I think it’s something I’d enjoy even if I saw it in a theater. But what do I know?

Much of the rest is rather mundane and boring, mostly proofreading or rewriting a variety of English documents written by Koreans. I’ll try to get back into my regular routine as soon as possible. Also, since I didn’t get around to putting together a Q & A for July, I intend to post two this month. I’ve got my eye on two candidates already, but have yet to ask them about it.

See you again when I can!
