Welcome to the Tweephole! Trying to keep up with Peat’s tweets as he finishes the edits on The Daylight War? You’ve come to the right place. As always, feel free to check out his tweets in realtime in the sidebar.
- @PVBrett – 95 comments between me and the end of #DaylightWar. Fixed a 50 word sentence with three em dashes that I must have written sleep deprived.
- @PVBrett – Watched Hunger Games. It was no Battle Royale.
- @PVBrett – Torrential rain outside, but I have iced coffee and 91 more comments on #DaylightWar to kick. #editing
- @PVBrett – 75 comments left in #DaylightWar. Running out of easy ones. Much go in search of a bacon, egg & cheese bagel before #editing more.
- @PVBrett – Bit the bullet and added another chapter. Couple thousand words in already. Taking a break for dinner. #DaylightWar #editing
- @PVBrett – Prize for 1st to make this happen MT @the_flamingo from description I pictured him sipping a small sherry wearing a burgundy smoking jacket.
- @PVBrett – To those reminding me the Hunger Games books are better than the movie: Duh. The books are ALWAYS better than the movie.
- @PVBrett – New #DaylightWar chapter (# 25) done. 60 inserted comments to go, but each will need an hour or more of work. Gonna be a long week. #editing
- @PVBrett – Love that my word ‘douchebot’, i.e. a twitter spambot designed to troll people for grammar & usage (often incorrectly) has become a thing.
- @PVBrett – Cornucopia of #DemonCycle fan art: http://t.co/t3glOkeR
- @PVBrett – Germans! Uh… Maybe you can read this. Looks like they’re giving away books I signed: http://bit.ly/QAUEU0
- @PVBrett – What the… I don’t even… RT @SamSykesSwears @PVBrett GET WITH THE TIMES, GRANDPA. http://t.co/rjznTrss
- @PVBrett – Nice thing about facebook, you can verify untruth of nightmares that someone you went to grade school with died without a crazed phone call.
- @PVBrett – The nightmares started with hours tossing and turning as my dream-brain tried to rearrange paragraphs in #DaylightWar. #editing #cracking
- @PVBrett – Last night I was literally passing out from stress. Today I feel like I got this bitch right where I want it. #DaylightWar #editing
- @PVBrett – Holy crap. RT @Planetpinto There must be a rule that all Orbit HQs must have a ridiculous retrofuturist atrium…http://t.co/zeMmXu2n

- @PVBrett – PW depressing as hell today. RT @PublishersWkly Security forces destroy legendary second-hand book stalls in Alexandria http://t.co/bEHJINA9
- @PVBrett – Sick of feeling simultaneously depressed & enraged by the news. Also, there should be one word that means both. Bet the Germans have one.
- @PVBrett – Okay, that’s it. Work time. Turning off the internets for #DaylightWar #editing. Tweet break after lunch, maybe.
- @PVBrett – The last 100 pages of #DaylightWar have over 40 comments. All of them sticky. Also: I have eaten too many Runts. Blargh. #editing
- @PVBrett – Internet, your protestations of disgust just make me want to try the Candy Corn Oreos all the more.
- @PVBrett – 31 editorial comments (mostly mine) left in #DaylightWar. Gonna be a hectic weekend. What’s taurine? Been drinking a lot of it. #editing
- @PVBrett – All this time hunched over the desk has my syrinx acting up. Feels like there is a knife in my ribs. Good times.
- @PVBrett – Literary Agent assaulted by a rejected author last night. Deeply disturbing & a reminder that GPS apps like 4sq have a dark side. Depraged.
- @PVBrett – It’s true. My day is better for having seen that. RT @Nanbits @AnneSowards @MykeCole last one, promise: http://t.co/dQAo67u8

- @PVBrett – Final #DaylightWar push this weekend. 12 comments & some rereads left. Plus I have to write two songs, henceforth called epic lays. #editing
- @PVBrett – I may have accidentally challenged @scalzi to a gangnam dance-off. #whoneedsdignity #punchdrunkfromediting
- @PVBrett – What’s that, ice cream? You want me to eat you? You know I can’t. What if someone sees? Okay, okay. Maybe just a little… #noonewillknow
- @PVBrett – Finished main edits of #DaylightWar around 3am. Today is rereads of new sections & epic lays. Then panic attack. Then I turn it in. #editing
- @PVBrett – I need help checking the math of polyhedral dice geometry. #nerdworldproblems
- @PVBrett – Awesome is: When the Principal of Brooklyn Tech offers to check your math. #DaylightWar #editing
- @PVBrett – More or less how I feel trying to figure out the math on Inevera’s alagai hora: http://t.co/9v6wLPoG
- @PVBrett – More Calvin & Hobbesian math procrastination: http://t.co/8BiWUKDk
- @PVBrett – Me and #GRRM at Aussiecon 2010 looking like Galactus and his herald: http://t.co/yVJxtTtQ
- @PVBrett – Song of Waning: 7 verses with 7 lines, each with 7 syllables and rhymes on lines 5 & 7. WTF was I thinking? #DaylightWar #editing
- @PVBrett – Know what stirs up a helluva racket? Raccoons fucking in your backyard. Don’t speak coon, but I think they were screaming some nasty shit.
- @PVBrett – 2:45am. #DaylightWar is done. HUZZzzzzzz
- @PVBrett – Daylight War is done. Which book should I read first? http://t.co/bggbQtPT
- @PVBrett – Looks like King of Thorns by a landslide, which is good, because I was gonna read that first anyway. 🙂 @Mark__Lawrence
- @PVBrett – I give you a 4 year old riding a metal dragon.
- @PVBrett – Listening to the Dominion audiobook by C.S. Friedman. So much Coldfire goodness I have goosebumps. Gerald Tarrant, I have missed you so.
- @PVBrett – Taught Cassie how to use the mouse on the computer, though I suspect that is like teaching her to use a rotary phone.
- @PVBrett – Happy 75th birthday to The Hobbit. I read that book in 1982 when I was 9 years old and was forever changed.
- @PVBrett – Problem with cleaning is it gets dirty again. We need to think big picture, step outside the box, and come up with a long-term solution.
- @PVBrett – Just started listening to Year Zero by Rob Reid, narrated by John Hodgeman. It is already kind of amazing.
- @PVBrett – If you’re an old school Marvel Comics nerd, this blog is a treasure trove of nostalgic joy: http://t.co/9qGf4xLO
