Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Plus at least one poem title I can think of, "Out, Out" by Robert Frost.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Wow, lots of titles taken from the "Seven Ages of Man" speech in As You Like It.

Dear Book Writers, you may not allude to "All the world's a stage" until people stop using "Halleluah" in movies and TV shows. This should be a natural brake on both of you.

Has anyone read the new Jennifer Crusie book, Maybe This Time? I just started it, and I like it. It feels a little darker than her previous books.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

NEW JENNIFER CRUSIE?!?!? Woohoo!!!
