So he rarely makes it into that. Well, these days, anyway.
We were separated at birth? Just curious.
Brilliant damned drabble, too.
Whoa. Good myth.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

The Long Arms of the Dead
They say the dead travel fast.
I'll believe that; what else have they got to do? Oh - wait. There's that thing about haunting the living.
I'm living. I breathe and feel and orgasm and dream, eat too much starch when I'm annoyed, and don't eat anything when I'm heartbroken. I'm animal, not vegetable, yet I reach for sunlight, emotional photosynthesis.
They say the dead travel fast. Maybe they do. Maybe that isn't the point.
What the beloved dead do to me is to block the sun, withhold its light. Fast or slow, the dead cast a long, long shadow.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Those are very powerful.

Mildly cranky, edging on fullscale pissed-off.
Email from my editor this morning; not bad news, but she's being (to be kind) disingenuous, and I don't like it, and have emailed and left a message for my agent.
More later, when ironed out. At the moment, pretty cranky with my publishers.

more shadows
The nights are getting brighter here. Spotlights at the 7-11 on the corner. Stuttering street lights on every other block. Paranoid security lights that flash "How dare you walk here!" as I pass by.
I walk home from the 7-11, wincing at the halogen headlights that morons like to kick to Bright at pedestrians. I gratefully turn my house corner, which blocks all the lights.
My sharp-edged shadow lies on the sidewalk in front of me. I smile, turn, and look up.
"Hello, moon."

connie, that's a charmer.
I'm buried in publishing silliness. At least, not silliness, just surrealism. Will be back to form when things handled.
