Thanks, JZ. Glad you like them.
Not blowing smoke up your ass, either. I wish that people with more money than us would notice your work and pounce on it, because it's seriously fucking good, tight storytelling.
I like the ruffles.

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."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I wish that, too. I keep thinking I get my big break, when really? Not so much. Homicide rule 5"It's good to be good. It's better to be lucky." I'm not that lucky.(Although I was hoping to get reviewed as a "promising newcomer" or something...I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed about that.)

I feel like I should say that I don't really write FOR the money, and that I don't really give much of a shit about money in and of itself. But artistic pride does not buy vacations or chocolate strawberries, and I wish I had more of those.(And there are far too many talented people in my "community" being steered toward eternal hobbyism, rather than finding out what their talents can be "worth" and I refuse to do that. Again, anyway.) Like it or not, paychecks speak, and since I have to give up on street cred being from the wrong part of Glendale for the hip-hop/Ranchera album, I do what I can.

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

The voice at the other end of the line gave a sigh, like a mighty oak toppling into a great river, or something else that didn’t sound like a sigh if you gave it a moment’s thought.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Renowned author Dan Brown gazed admiringly at the pulchritudinous brunette’s blonde tresses, flowing from her head like a stream but made from hair instead of water and without any fish in.
I want to marry this reviewer.

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

This is the best review ever.
