Oh, dear. That's rough, sj
He’s a celebrity to her. He’s one of the first authors whose names she knew because he was in an episode of “Arthur”.
Nothin'. I just wanted you to face me so she could get behind ya.

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."

Kate, I know he was not involved in the filming at all but I don't know about the rewriting. At least, that's what I remember. And I also want to see season 3, but not as rabidly as season 1 had me.

Random thing I will miss as book-centered groups migrate off of FB: I came across a tea-centric post in the Parasol Protectorate Group and almost commented on the felicity of the pictured teacup featuring a magpie but remembered in time that that's KJ Charles. I just don't think I'm going to get that kind of juxtaposition with separate discords or blogs or whatever, assuming I manage to remember to visit them frequently which is not at all guaranteed.

Dang, sj. That's not going to be fun to navigate.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I feel about Good Omens (TV) the way I do about Buffy -- Joss Whedon is a garbage human being and abusive piece of shit, but BTVS is not solely Joss. It's so much more than him, and I won't let Joss ruin how much the show means to me. Same with Good Omens.

I explained the JK Rowlings thing to her easy enough, and she totally got it. But this one, ick. She’s only 9.

Yeah. Give yourself some time to work out what is enough of an explanation. And to have your own feelings about it.

Our wings are not tired.
Yes, you need to work through your feelings. There is no rush. It is hard enough on us as adults. My Gaiman-loving son is 33! That's a different feeling for sure to be able to discuss as adults.

Not *totally* shallow. You could be shallower.
Oh, believe me, I know. It was just something that blurted out of my fingers.
I’m clinging to the hope that this will have an impact on his career and life. I fear that it won’t.
