I.P-S.T.P.W.

Today is International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Wretch Day. I must admit that when the kerfluffle first started, I kept reading that phrase as technopeasant wench. I wouldn't mind a wench t-shirt, but apparently they are only available in wretch.

In honor of this occasion, I publicly affirm my belief in the rights of authors to control their creations. (Yes, Google, I'm talking to you.)

In a perfect world I would have had the time & energy to write something for today to share on the internet. Sadly I can barely keep up with the current demands on my time, so instead I'll point you to my website, where you can find excerpts of my fantasy novels by clicking here.

ETA: Thanks to Kristine and Janni for the tipoff, Wench shirts can be found here.

Last I looked, Wench shirts were available at Cafepress.

Cool!

Sadly the t-shirts are available in wenchish fashions, but they still declare the wearer to be a wretch. I may have to invent one of my own.

If you do invent one, please post about it. I think a 'technopeasant wench' shirt would be cool.

Very cool indeed.

Sadly I am graphically disinclined, and my visual arts minion is busy preparing to flee to a con. But perhaps when she returns she may be bribable....

There were two cafe press stores--the one with black and white shirts, my memory is, did have Wench as well as Wretch shirts.

Hmm, must keep hunting. The internet, so full of time sinks it is.

Ah ha! Found it.

It lives! Someone else already invented it here http://www.cafepress.com/pixelstained (http://www.cafepress.com/pixelstained).

Finally found them. Turned out there were two competing Cafepress stores :-)
