QE

The Fed is buying more short-term bonds.

“This is not QE,” Mr. Powell said. “In no sense is this QE.”

It’s QE.

Kudos

And thanks to UnicornofAmber for kudos on Sauron Explains it All.

That story was really her/his idea. Book and movie Sauron really doesn’t do or say much other than a few ominous threats, but my Sauron needs to have some personality to him. And his personality is all bad. UnicornofAmber pointed out it would be interesting to see a bit more of Sauron, and I had to agree.

Chapter

That was a hard one. It’s a silent bit of difficulty, but if you’re writing yourself and struggling, don’t think you’re alone. Sometimes they’re difficult because of subject matter and sometimes life, and sometimes for what seems like no reason at all, the words just don’t come.

Good luck. I’m rooting for you.

Sauron Explains It All

The only thing I have for a second chapter is the line, “In the beginning of days, I was better than you.” I really like that line, because it’s got a lot of personality behind it, but I don’t have enough jokes to write a chapter to support it.
