The Wordsmith's Forge

So much fun.  :D 

I am reminded of the Cheela invention of counting, which uses a very similar method but ends up in base 12 instead of base 6.

 Castle.

My partner Doug came into my office and said, "I have the most ridiculous request I've ever made of you."

I said, "That's going to take some doing."

He said, "Knight in Shining Armor Computer Technical Repair Service?"

I said, "You win."

The most bizarre thing is that I was actually able to do what he needed -- disconnecting and reconnecting small parts -- and the thing actually ran afterwards.   

This is the freebie for the July crowdfunding Creative Jam. It was inspired by a prompt from alexseanchai. It also fills the "Violent Behavior" square in my 6-4-18 card for the Winteriron Bingo Adventure fest.

There will be a half-price sale in Polychrome Heroics from Monday, July 16 through Sunday, July 22.  I have six poems to put up, ranging in price from $28.50 to $305.  Due to the small size and my current backlog, this is a half-price sale only, without the quarter-price discount.
