Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'll look at it, Raq, if you like.

What is even happening?

deb, as you know, I haven't kept up with the Kincaid Chronicles, since my brain fell out, this winter. How many have you written now? Did you start the one in Boston?

I was prompted to ask, because I was browsing the Museum of Fine Arts website, to see if there's any exhibit the kids would enjoy. I noticed they have collections of instruments, and lutes, guitars, etc. are among the collection. They're completely beautiful and I wanted to give you a link for it, for future reference: [link] (or just for the pretty).

Chiming in with an "I'd love to read it, too, Raq!" Profile addy is good.

move out and draw fire

Beverly and Sail, I'm anticipating another round of rewrites after the current readers comment. Can I run it by you guys after that?

Sounds great! I'm looking forward to it, Raq.

That's fine, Raq. I'll look forward to it.

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

Raq, sitting down with yours even as we speak.

Cindy, I'm 35K into the fourth one. And guitars pretty.

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 for all you said, Connie. Meant a lot.

Question: If it's been a month, and my new agent still hasn't read my manuscript, I can start feeling very frustrated, right?

Cleveland is fourth?

Is R&RNF the first, and WMGGW the second? What's 3rd? When do you get to Boston (or was that third)?

Cindy, you read the first two. You haven't read London Calling. I'm working on Cleveland Rocks, even as we speak. Five (which I can't frickin' wait to write is the big world tour, Book of Days. Six will be a suicide that isn't, Uncle John's Band. Seven, I get to bump off a certain world-class guitar player who is famous for not paying his band members/session people, and who is one of the bigger jerks on the planet (you know who I mean); that one's not titled yet. Boston - probably with an Aerosmith title, Dream On or Walk This Way or Janie's Got A Gun, will be in Boston.
