Or my current mess in progress (Ray is the narrator):
"Fraser?" "Fraser!" "Fraser, Fraser, Fraser." Fraser blinked. "Constable Fraser," Fraser says. Fraser nods. Fraser whispered. "Hey, Fraser!" Fraser sighed. Fraser nodded.
Willow: Happy hunting. Buffy: Wish me monsters.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Huh, mine was something like, Jane, Jane, Jane, Sara, fuck, fuck, Fuck. There's a lot of frustrated swearing in mine.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
OK, this feature sounds like way too much fun...

What is this NAno thing y'all are talking about? I prolly don't have time, but it sounds interesting.

OK, this is interesting. It's the current column of Murder at the Flatiron, from my publisher's website. It's written by my editor, Ruth Cavin.
I'd love to think the "manuscript we are publishing next year" is "Famous Flower." But that's probably reaching.

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

I just called my sister at Waldenbooks, and asked her about WaFM. It's in their warehouses, and Suzy ordered some copies for their store, and she's going to display it face-out and talk it up to Xmas customers.
She's also going to gie it to her district manager, who loves mystery/suspense and if DM likes it, she'll talk it up to the managers of all the KC and St. Louis stores.
EDIT:
COOL! Thanks, ita!

Always Anti-fascist!
I broke 10,000 words. Without the Munchkin and his dick jokes. This is huge(Not that that didn't sound entendrish.) Taking a moment. And I'm done. But there is no way that I'll have 50k by 12/1 without heavy drugs, and even then, eh. But I'm proud.

If I only had a brain...
Erika, I just got to 2K two days running. I think it's just taking me longer to learn how to write extended stuff. There's time for both of us to catch up.
But, candidly, winning is not necessarily the point of the exercise. I got the glimmer of a novel I want to write, and write for as long as it takes in the real world. That means I've already won.
