My friend hasn't worked there in years. And I forgot about that jackass guy, who now reports for freaking ABC News! And whose name is currently escaping me.
The Bay City Rollers, now that's music.
Giles ,'Sleeper'
The Great Write Way
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

Patrick left in '99 -- it was a freelance thing, and he got a grown-up job that made laying out personals until 2 a.m. less appealing. Seriously, you should email me who it is, just because I am all curious.

Really? I missed that development.
Well, at least he made the most of his 15 minutes.

I would like to be a cops and court reporter Sister! Alas the hours are so not compatible with disability, it's to laugh.(Bitterly, of course) But I don't blame any attendant I would have for not wanting to work at four because I've gotta follow the fire truck. But I still have a (mental) hard-on for it. So, I'm stuck in the Features ghetto. No, let me amend, I'll have to work my way into the features ghetto. But, see new tag.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Oh, you know, the ineffable desire to Create! and Be! and Make Your Mark Upon the World!. Starving-artist-in-the-garret motivators. I feel like because most of the reasons I want to do this stuff are practical, they count less, somehow.
Ah, yes, the "If it ain't grand it don't count" feeling.
While I'm all for large circulations seeing my funny/trenchant/wise/timeless words the fact of the matter is the big effect is more often the accumulation of increments. Some of them so subtle as to be nearly invisible to the reading eye until they're combined with something else.
You can't build the Great Pyramid without first making the bricks.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Hmmmmm.
Tomorrow night's writers group at my house may well have a neat guest sitting in: my friend Danyel Smith may be coming over. I hope so - Danyel rocks the house.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Speaking of career weirdness:
I'm speaking, and maybe reading, at a Sci-Fi convention at Harvard on Jan. 31st. I read poetry in Worcester the next day.

When worlds collide,Victor. Deb, her book sounds like a winner. I like messy stories like that.(And that sounded nice in my head.)

erika, I once described her to someone as a hot cranky angel. She is all that, and more.
Danyel the dynamo.
