Sydney, I just want to add in my “please don’t worry about the schedule thing, just do them as you can” sentiments. This is such a treat, and as such, should be looked at as something to be relished when it can happen. I found it in a serendipitous fashion, and serendipity can be neither forced nor expected, so you just keep doing as you can, and we as your “fans” will simply support you with our undying loyalty, admiration and ~~great big wodges of cash~~ our undying gratitude…

Cheers Michael– looking into it now! By the way your blog is wonderful– I’m sure we must know some of the same people.. one degree of separation!

sydney, the smart moneynow seems to be on a plugin called EG-Series (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eg-series/)
I have installed it and found it to be a source of unalloyed “it really works!” joy.
There’s a forum post that sheds some light on EG-series’ advantages here:

(I removed the http bit so that your spam monitor doesn’t get all stroppy.)
All the best,

Did Charles Babbage really try a decimal calendar? Maybe not, but one was declared during the French Revolution, as part of the original version of the metric system. It never caught on, however.

Darrien Ethier’s “Organise Series” plugin can be found at -

Tadlock’s offering is less likely to be made redundant by the headlong advances of the WordPress dev team, because he’s using one of the new WordPress taxonomies to do the grunt work.

I pointed my dear friend Michael Schlingmann at your blog. Oddly enough, it was the day after I stood in front of Babbage’s difference engine. Is there some spooky steampunk mojo at work?

There are two WordPress plugins that will sort out your navigation headaches, and present chronologically awkward posts as if they were one mellifluous flow.
Justin Tadlock’s “Series” plugin, and Darren Ethier’s “Organise Series”.
I’ll put the first URL here:

…and put the second one in the following comment box, so as to avoid being fritzed by Akismet.

I love your art style, the expressions are fantastically done, can’t say enough about them. The bubble of the story and its arc is wonderful, and your notes with the story are great to read.
I’m always looking forward to the next one, so thusly I render to you this kudos; well done^_^.
