My clothes drier stopped working this morning. (Just stopped. No smoke, sparks, explosions or personal injury — very anticlimactic, for me.) I thought there could be some cosmic connection between that and the potential income from my short story connection, since it’s coming out in just weeks or days, so I did some basic math.
Yeah. I’m not optimistic enough to think I’m going to sell that many copies before I get tired of hanging stuff on the line.

- 24 Mar 2023, 12:06I'm also not an awards show person. They're just not fun for me. You're right that far too often celebrities are used to being treated like every syllable they say is really important and most of…

- 24 Mar 2023, 07:33I love EEAAO!! So glad it won all the accolades (plus Short Round!)
- 20 Mar 2023, 02:16Hah! That might be worth the trip. As for me, I have to get to work regardless, but otherwise I'm perfectly happy to just stay at home.

Hopefully more potential income is in your future :)
It was not fun...
They make a kind of fold-out wooden drying rack ... I used to have one, but it didn't hold much -- and when you filled it completely, the stuff inside never got dry.
Okay, I'm better now ... just needed to rant.
If it is broken/broken you can get a dryer for $350-$450. (if you don't want top of the line.)
Besides the clothes line there is always trucking your laundry to the laundromat. I had to do that in the dead of winter for about 4 months. It's not fun but it took me 45 minutes to dry 6 to 8 loads of laundry, so that was a plus.
However, it doesn't look like that's going to become a question, as tonight the drier just ... started. Just like that. The only thing I did was mess with the venting a bit, making no obvious difference. I think maybe it was just tired and needed a day off, but I'm not ready to relax about that yet.
