I don't believe that "no new guitars" pledge for a minute.

asadiablo.me•60 days ago

That doesn't count "gently used", "refurbished", or "previously owned".

tony.zone•60 days ago

So you're saying he's only buying unique signed, staged-played or studio-used guitars from top name artists.

asadiablo.me•60 days ago

I'm not saying anything, on advice of council.

stayshift.bsky.social•60 days ago

I said the same thing but if he can do it, so can I. And I know I can do it, so it goes that so can he.

redneckedhippie.bsky.social•60 days ago

I say I will every year but ,alas, Sweetwater gets me with some sale or the local used shop has some cool things I never saw before. I suppose it could be projection on my par.t

How about this, we keep each other accountable? If I order more headphones, let the heckling begin. A random stranger heckling me is a lot more frightening than someone I know.

I laud your achievements and hope your goals are met. Maintaining a physical discipline takes time, but provides health for body and mind. I walk 10k a day and have a vague goal of cutting that in half to work on core strength, perhaps with Pilates. Good luck moving forward.

I think your #4 is going to be particularly important for me in 2025.

Happy New Year to you and your family John and to the fluffy rulers of the house as well

cdbrow1.bsky.social•60 days ago

John I read this as soon as I got the email and I am a bit let down.

There is no discussion of your plans to make new and horrifying burritos to mock us all.

Be well.

Maybe you've talked about this already somewhere else; if so, my apologies.
I'm curious about the audio novella: in what ways is writing one of those different from writing paper novellas?

The only thing I can think of now is that you need to leave out all the 'he/she said's.

Also: Happy 2025!

ezeneezer.bsky.social•60 days ago

Have the most excellent of years! Happy to have read you, can't wait for what is to come.

Also, you're one the most likable dudes online so thanks for the joy💜

Nicely written, and (better) *sane* in a most insane era.

I'm also recommitting to my health (dropped the ball 3 months ago) and recently deleted my FB account so I can focus on enrichment and community rather than Scrolling For Doooooom.
May 2025 treat you kindly.

jimzub.bsky.social•60 days ago

Great stuff, John.

gnarlygeek.bsky.social•59 days ago

A very picture of "happiness".

jg71.bsky.social•60 days ago

looking forward to a great many awesome books

armorguy.bsky.social•59 days ago

Best of wishes for happiness to you and yours in the new year, sir. Thank you for bringing me some happiness, snark, and great reading. Be well.

tanalam.bsky.social•60 days ago

I’ve had much more time to read since I cut off most social media and msm news. Had forgotten how much I enjoy just sitting and reading.

tony.zone•60 days ago

Having followed you for years now, I appreciate that things are really coalescing for Scalzi Enterprises. Your hard work definitely seems to be paying off and I am looking forward to what is next -- one of the few bright spots is from one of my favorite artists.
