The end is near.
Amazon continues to be a pain in the ass. I spent a lot of time looking for a link to share on Facebook so people could buy it there. The trick is, we get more of the money off Vimeo than we do off Amazon. I'm putting it on Amazon because more people will see it there.
But yesterday, I noticed that Amazon did not accept my file for the film. After reading the fine print again, I realized they were serious about wanting the film in a certain codec. This new codec expands the file size from about 10 gigabytes to 119 gigabytes. I started uploading about 10am and it still wasn't done by the time I went to bed. When I woke at 4 this morning I got the oh so popular failed to upload notice. That was completely expected after the length of time it took to upload. So, I'm back uploading it now. It seems to be going a tad faster today. I'm also staying off that computer and working from the laptop so nothing interferes with the stream.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
