My sister recently found an unfinished young-adult mecha scifi in our parents’ house. She insists it isn’t her writing, so it’s probably mine, but I don’t remember it. Maybe I do? I think I was in a creative writing course at a summer camp when I was 13, and our teacher told us to try… Continue Reading magi-11 year old dystopian resident

Why You Should Consider Facebook Advertising on BlogPaws

hudginsl on September 7, 2017September 6, 2017

I wrote about the advantages of Facebook advertising for BlogPaws. Facebook can target ads to people with bachelor’s degrees who are veterinary technicians who own homes, are interested in soccer, and are parents with children in elementary school. That’s how narrow Facebook advertising can get.

I have asthma, so the smoke billowing from the nearby Eagle Creek Fire (and others!) is very serious for me. I’m not leaving the house unless I really need to. Except that time yesterday when a neighbor said they had 6 pounds of free plums and I was on them like a colony of sugar… Continue Reading How I’m Surviving the Fires: A Product Guide

hudginsl on August 22, 2017

My partner and I have discovered a way to shave off a small section of 224 to bike on quiet streets and multi-use paths. Off 224, take SE River Mill Road west towards the river/River Mill Reservoir.

My internet friend Ed Shimmy died yesterday. Back in March, a friend shared a comic by Ed Shimmy about having pancreatic cancer.

hudginsl on July 6, 2017July 6, 2017

I was quoted by Kerry Flynn in Mashable on how trolling is bad for Twitter advertising. When you look at the numbers coming in from your ads, you can’t be sure if the interactions with your ad are from interested individuals—who could turn into customers—or from trolls who drive up the numbers through spite. That… Continue Reading Why Trolling is Bad for Twitter’s Bottom Line

Bicycle License in Memphis, TN

hudginsl on June 14, 2017June 15, 2017

Once upon a time, Memphis, Tennessee, required bicycle licenses. This was my aunt’s, issued in 1949, when she was ten years old. She rode a J. C. Higgins. The license cost 50 cents. They used the wrong name. My aunt’s name was Claire, not Claira. For the record, I am very against requiring any sort… Continue Reading Bicycle License in Memphis, TN
