Yeah, y'all, No is short. I've heard it enough.

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

Maybe we need to a Neurotic Buffista Writer subthread.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I thought that was Minearverse?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Not just you, Bunk.

You are here.

Ms. Grabien is simply here to provide contrast.

On another board I had as a tag, David Simon bitching about "pimping his shit to people that weren't as excited as he wanted them to be." Since he's living my dream right now, I suppose I'm fucked as far as being rid of that. Or in Wire-speak, "it's all in the game." I'm having a slump following a hot streak, personally.

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

Yeah, right. That would be why every single segment of "Cruel Sister" that went out to WIP readers had the subject line "Please don't let this SUCK." Invested in Kinkaids, resented writing more Haunted Ballads, a lot of the shit from the Kinkaids bled into Cruel Sister, and dayum, it's a good read. But I was pretty damned neurotic about it while I was writing it. Until the dark stuff from the Kinkaids got in there, I felt like I was phoning it in. Does that count as neurotic?

I don't know. I can't square it. I mean, I know everyone has their moments, but...
