Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

You're misunderstanding me. What I'm saying is that Allyson's not blogging (regardless of software platform) because she's not presenting content directed at people who don't know her. Not that they can't read her, but that this is of little to no value to an editor, unless they're trying to be really nosy and profile the person Allyson. Which will fail because of the whole friendslock thing anyway.

I'm totally not blogging. My entries on LJ are kind of just crap, and the unlocked is meme's, mostly.

It's boring. I think she's thinking I've got a real blog with witty commentary on the world, and mostly it's where I go to take a brain poop. I don't think I've ever written anything clever or funny or not completely whiny and hairpat-like in it.

But I didn't want to refuse any request from a publisher, either.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

In that case, I'd lock down everything you're iffy about, and say "sure, though I really can't imagine why you'd want it."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'd go with the "create a new one and point her there" scenario. Toss in a couple backdated un-revealing entries, but don't let her request be the reason for changing how you normally LJ.

Good advice. My flist who read my LJ might see a change or two.

What is even happening?

What ita said, and post all the entries so that people can't leave comments.

Kristen, was that a text interview?

He's kinda cute, and all the celeb-stalkers out there may be happy to hear his GF picked him up with "aren't you the guy from..."

I'm pretty sure it was via email.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Here's a question: Allyson, does your editor know you have a journal, or was he/she fishing in the dark? Because, you can always come back and say "I don't have one; that's why I am writing the book!" -- unless they already know you have one.

I have no links. I can still play though, right?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You know, I'm sure I could go a whole thread without posting any links other than perfecly harmless. I could.
Keep telling yourself that concussion girl...

ION, When calling in a claim for a vehicularly homocided cell phone, knowing the date of the incident is very Very VERY important. Even when they say it isn't. Because when the dates don't match they think you are trying to pull an insurance scam. Instead of just being very forgetful. It doesn't help that I activated an old handset either. Bother.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You know, I'm sure I could go a whole thread without posting any links other than perfecly harmless. I could.

Because this worked so well with the shopping.
