Buffistas

Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

Thanks! Back to the grind. Champagne is chilling, I have coffee and cigarettes and some hearty determination.

I'm unsure, deb, and my agent hasn't replied yet to the question, when it's complete, do i add my table of contents with page numbers to it, or just the title page? I'm unsure what to do on that front.

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

Damn - that's one I honestly can't answer with any certainty, because, again, fiction is different. My take would be to make one up, and include it, up front with the acknowledgements, etc; if your agent/editor decides it doesn't need to be there, they can always take it out, yes?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Allyson, if you're around, I would love to read Munchasen's by Internet.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I bet this means you've finished, Allyson. If so, congrats!

And another tall glass of congratahol for the young lady slumped over at the end of the bar, courtesy of the house.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Whee!
