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."

Because books.

Also, that would be an awesome writing workshop: Is There Purpose to Your Purple?

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

It feels less stained glass, more Bedazzler.

Oh, snap!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Besides, there's nothing wrong with this line:

Yeah, I'm going to have to say I find little purpose in her purple. It feels less stained glass, more Bedazzler.

Ha! But very true. And it's not like I'm disdainful toward lurid and overblown writing or anything.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

ooh, Jilli, there was a review in Sunday's paper of a biography of Dr. Polidi - don't know if you'd be interested.

oops - Dr. Polidori (some days I can spell, really!)

move out and draw fire

OK. I just went to Amazon to see if the paperback of World War Z was out yet, and was bemused by the "Customers who bought this book.." suggestions.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Twice a day behind their house the tide boarded the sand. Four times a year the seasons flopped over. Clams live like this, but without so much reading.

Hee! I like that.
