Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Revise the book.

Herding cats for fun

That's a whopper of a list over at Locus. I must be way behind because not familiar with so.many.authors.

I thought I'd just breeze through and vote for stuff I've read and remember (I see you, opals and storms) but apparently I have to drop everything and listen to The Mythic Dream

It's such a great list on so many fronts.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

My friend has another short story out. Fetch Us Another Round

This is the same friend who wrote Inks, Jinks.
