Teh sex, of course.
You said novel-length, but is it a novel or just personal philosophy, Gus?
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Crap, I'm going to have to get my act together and put together a presentable novel.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
It is a novel, SA. It has all that story stuff. It starts out with a dude who cannot differentiate his ass from his elbow. A girl occurs. The dude discovers the difference.
If I ever get a publicist, he or she is going to hate me.

Go for it, connie. All your alternate reality fanfic is just novels with familiar names to them. Write one and slap something other than a Buffyverse name in it.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Connie actually has a perfectly good novel in good-sized chunks; I know, because I've read some of it. She avoids quite a few common traps, right out the gate, and some of the few traps she did fall into are extremely shallow and easy for anyone with an instinct to climb right out of. So yes, she should do that thing.
Gus, you sly dog, you! What's it called?

Congratulations, Gus!

Because books.
Congratulations, Gus! But we need more details -- when does it come out? What's the title?

If I only had a brain...

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Congrats, Gus.
I need to get back to my own novel. I have the free time again, but my rampant insomnia the last few weeks has left me feeling too tired to do anything that requires brain power.
