  1. Oh look how smart you are. You made a play button.

    That is really the thing missing from the slide shows. A “play” button and a “pause” button.

    Now I need to figure out how you did it.

  2. Hi Max

    First I transfered the info from the slide show onto a ‘page’ as opposed to a ‘post’.

    Then I gave it a title and hit the publish button.

    So far so good.

    then I copied the http address from the page and created a link on a regular post- now I have a post with the slideshow link and all you do is click it and ta-da!

  5. Ok, I finally saw it. Bravo! Anita Marie, that song makes it pretty campy, thank God, because I don’t want to have nightmares tonight! I especially like the Congress of Living Freaks. What is that about?

  6. Hi Stiletto!

    I found this picture when I was doing research on the history of American Side Shows- Congress of Living Freaks were people liked Conjoined Twins, Bearded Ladies, Snake Man, Lobster Boy.

    People like that inspire me to no end- so they turn up in my stories on a regular basis.

    I love it when nature throws a genetic curve ball- keeps things interesting.

  7. I had a feeling that that was what it meant! My father sends me pictures of that stuff all the time and with no explanation! Why I have no idea, I supposed it is his way of saying I love you?!!!

    BTW, why do those people inspire you? Just curious!

  8. When I see things, like a person or hear a song or see a phrase I get these ideas for stories.

    When I see people like my side show folks or I pass someone on the street or meet someone who might be considered strange I get ENTIRE stories- they sort of write themselves right then and there.

    Most of the time the stories don’t deal with people who talk to themselves or have claws for hands or whatever, but if I hadn’t seen them at all the story wouldn’t have happened.

    I’m not sure about the how and why, but whatever kicks my brain into gear like that…I love it.

    So like I said, they inspire me.

    amm
    ps my husband and friends send me weird stuff too- you should see my e-mail box…I get everything from picturs of fish with human faces to news articles about graveyards from an ancient civilization full of headless bodies. Gee, I guess I inspire people too cause this is stuff none of them pay attention to under er…normal circumstances.

  9. i shifted the slide show over. I am using a too big image to take its place at the moment but I can change it out and this was brilliant Anita thanks.

    You gals are so cool you’ll probably end up ditching me and creating some sort of Writer’s Universe where I end up being the Chick Who Puts candy in the vending machines ;-)

  20. Hi Stiletto- the world is full of strange people- and I’m in no hurry so I’ll take the time to look so for me they’re everywhere.

    And Max…yes I knew that was you – but come on, what, do I have to chase you with the cokes?

  21. This does have the feel of a good party A.M

    Good to meet you too Max. Been snooping around your stuff and am most impressed. Maybe we could have you drop in over at Soul Food. Always got an eye out for talent – must have been a talent scout in another life

    have a good one

  23. Thank you Heather. Soul Food looks like a very big project very well set up. That has got to be hugely time consuming for you.
