Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

oooh, thanks for the advice.

I sent an e to my agent asking if A) it was a good idea, and B) if including a sample chapter/excerpt is okay.

Also thinking that maybe I should include a photo and fill out my bio by adding that I've done an assload of underground publishing and had my own zine (Suburban Backlash, about punk rock, SM, and Queercore in the suburbs).

Always Anti-fascist!

Oh, Allyson. Love your tag. Marshall was always a hero to me. It makes me sad his spot went to such a lightweight, but that's for another thread.

My unhappiness with the direction of my party drives me to read Marshall and wrap myself up in the ideas and wisdom that were once the hallmark of liberalism. But yeah, another thread...

I look more rad than Lutheranism

if including a sample chapter/excerpt is okay.

Since the Kerry fundraiser chapter was already published on Popgurls, could you put that one up?

I'm trying to figure out what's the best representation of my writing, Steph. I'm perplexed. And having a difficult time with my ego.

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

Definitely a bio, Allyson. And definitely your other publishing stuff.

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

Very nice, Allyson.

I put in some pics that are like LJ icons, keeping with the net communication theme. Thanks so much for the advice.

Because books.

Heh. I like those, Allyson.

Allyson, it all looks great.
