Part II of Tim's interview with IF Magazine.
It's incredibly annoying that they didn't include the whole thing and want us to wait another week to read the rest. I hate that crap. Just put in the whole interview.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

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

Word. I've never understood why they do that with days between pieces of articles, let alone weeks.
Just a heads up to everyone - there are some spoilers in that.

I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine
Had I printed the interview to read on my subway ride home I might have been annoyed, but since I read it at work the length was just about right. So I had a nice little break plus another installment to look forward to.
Which episode was "Everything Nice"? Just checked imdb: it was the one with the wee psycho, Yvette from Wonderfalls, the DA from Homicide, & Katie in the treehouse. I liked that one.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.
I'm sure this is off topic but John Rogers linked my blog! How cool is that?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Here's a stupid question. Who is John Rogers?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's the guy who executive produced Global Frequency (based on a Warren Ellis comic and starring Michelle Forbes). His blog has been circulating in screenwriting class circles for a while now (it's where I found it), and the GF pilot was leaked onto the web and got him an assload of attention.
And a college friend, but I suppose that has nothing to do with his popularity.

And he's writing the Transformers movie!

That bit I don't get. But it sure beats Catwoman and The Core.
