That news is made of awesome, deb! I can't wait to read/see the stories!
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Deb, wouldn't be till about October. My seniors will be reading an autobio, "Always Running," by a man who was heavy into the L.A. gangs of the 80's. Then they do their research papers. I wanted them to learn about different ways of writing, reasons, audience, styles, that kind of thing. Also, to just tie it in. And hey! I can offer extra credit if they read one of y'all's books and do a book report before the interview!
BWAHAHAHAHA! FEEL THE POWER OF EXTRA CREDIT! BWAAHAHA --- *cough*
Ok, evil laugh hurts.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I'm seriously considering keeping a blog/diary about this entire project, as a side article later, for publication.
Working title "Yo Mama Don't Dance". Homage to Loggins & Messina and my own history. Could be funny as shit.

Great idea, Deb!

Need to run that by Daymond when we talk today. Maybe a piece for Vibe, pitch it before we even get started?

Excellent, Deb! I think that would be worth the pitch-time.
Oh, I am finding the thought of you, ita and Juliana trolling the clubs for research so entertaining! If you need a free RA who's great at chatting people up and getting them to talk, give me a ring. It would be hours of fun! Dressing slutty for research!
(Dammit, I wish my water would boil already. NEED. TEA.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

ita and I discussed wearing the same outfit - wifebeater, short plaid skirt, fishnets, and our knee-high lace-up boots. THAT's entertainment.
