My latest Twitter rant to authors…
The link I keep referring to in these tweets is to an article I wrote, Do you know where your book is?, and posted on the Independent Author Index. Each time authors check only Amazon for where their books are being sold, I want to make them read this: http://t.co/FShvLuHa4f — Faydra Deon (@faydra_deon) July […]
I just wanted to let you all know I’m not ignoring…
your @mentions. I injured my QL (quadatrus lumborum) muscle, and it’s very difficult to sit at the computer for any length of time, plus the medicine my doctor prescribed makes me extremely drowsy. For the time being I’m mostly on autotweets, but I’ll be live on Twitter as soon as I heal up, and I’ll reply […]
George Zimmerman…acting as an agent of the police?
There’s not a whole lot that needs to be said on why George Zimmerman should have been found guilty of the murder of Trayvon Martin. The six-panel jury found Zimmerman not guilty because of Florida’s “Stand Your Ground” law. Because of this, they decided that a crime was not committed when Zimmerman shot and killed […]
I thought Adobe was going to make it hard for me to switch…
to the student/teacher version of the Creative Cloud suite. A year ago today, I signed up for the suite using the discount code for those who were previous CS owners, which dropped the monthly fee to $29.99. After I’d already signed up under that discount, I discovered that I could have signed up under the student/teacher […]

I’ve been using my Jawbone UP for several weeks now: http://v1s.it/1atmW1k It’s really awesome! I can shower in it and everything! The best part is that I wear it on my wrist, like a watch. Before the UP, I had the Fitbit Zip and the Bodymedia armband, but they were a hassle for me. The […]
When did I say I was better than you?
Have you ever noticed that it is the people who feel they are inferior to you who will tell you not to act like you’re better than them? I have never said to anyone “I’m better than you, so listen to my advice,” but the person who feels inferior will usually accuse me of “believing” […]

Happy Mother’s Day, Tyrone!
Back on Father’s Day 2011 I wrote an article entitled, “Mother’s Day doesn’t come with a disclaimer, so STOP doing it on Father’s Day,” and now I’m back this Mother’s Day to acknowledge three fathers who have raised and/or are raising their child(ren) and have provided and/or are providing the majority of care for their […]
Twitter Conversation: Access to the tools does not equal proficiency…
This Twitter conversation started with the following tweet: Students and teachers can purchase Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 for less than $150: bit.ly/aChcoe #examiner — Faydra Deon (@faydra_deon) May 2, 2013 In reply to it, @dioninfinite tweeted me the following:
Oh, no! I’ve forgotten how to read!!!
OK, I’m being melodramatic, and I didn’t complete the title. It should say… Oh, no! I’ve forgotten how to read physical books. So here’s what happened…
