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."

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

Clive Barker was in a coma?

It's making me confused about tampons, it is.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Becuase of my neck surgery last year, I'm supposed to pre-medicate with antibiotics before visiting the dentist until 2 years after the surgery. Because the dentist's hands have all sorts of germs on them, and the hands spend a lot of time in the mouth, and so on....

Closer to topic, I'm re-reading Barker's Imajica right now. I shudder to think about his possible dreams while he was out.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That may be the saddest thing I've ever seen.

And it reminds me, I've been meaning to post a link to The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr Morris Lessismore. This is my pick for Best Animated Short this year, by a HUGE margin, and not just because it's about books.

I've been meaning to post a link to The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr Morris Lessismore.

I posted that link last weekend: in Movies, I think. Isn't it WONDERFUL?

It is! Sorry I missed your link in Movies, I would have talked it up.

It's so sad and beautiful and WONDERFUL. If it doesn't win I will be shocked and dismayed.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Thanks for that link, ita--that is sad and wonderful.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

RIP John Christopher.
