Thanks to Lisa Mantchev ( www.lisamantchev.com/ ) for alerting me to International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day.
According to its originator and host Jo Walton ("Bluejo"), IPSTD is, "the day when pixel-stained technopeasants everywhere are stretching and smiling and putting down their technotools to celebrate their existence by releasing their works into the wild, or at least the web."
Bluejo hosts IPSTD over at:

and was responding to this post on the SFWA (Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America) page at Live Journal:

Since I already have a couple of stories up on my webpage, I added my link to the growing list.
My sampler (found at home.earthlink.net/~emalcoh...tion.html ) contains two of my 1980s publications. "Cog" appeared in _Tales of the Unanticipated_, Fall/Winter 1988. ("Cog" is the second story down. I list it first here because IPSTD focuses mainly though not exclusively on science fiction and fantasy.) "Variations for Four Hands" appeared in the erotica journal _Yellow Silk_, No. 14, Spring 1985.
