Hell yes. Re-link me when it's all the way up, please.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Can I make great strides, as in, three more series books sold, and the paperback rights, and the foreign rights (at least UK rights), and the Very Important Person who is looking at "Still Life" buytng it? Some or all of the above?
I am deeming myself the voice of optimism--your work with flourish this year. So it is written, so shall it be.

Thank you. Will do. I would say by the end of January it will be up and running. I'm so excited!

I'll link it from a few places, as well.
Victor, from your lips to whatever ears may be listening.

Hmm, Victor...although we'd be in bigger "We're gonna need a bigger boat!" trouble if I was the voice of optimism. No, I think we'd be completely fucked. But I am positive about that. Actually, I feel good about finishing Eva Braun's edit from hell. And I second the good wishes for Books of Deb.

Basically I've decided that my dream job is to write somewhere between David Sedaris and Dave Barry. Humor, but humor with a purpose. More of the "everyman" than Sedaris, more poignant than Barry. Of course, I aspire to someone like Fadiman, who is my favorite essayist.
It's in the air. 2005 is going to be a hell of a year, and I can't wait.

Kristin, that's some damned good company you're talking about keeping, there. Don't forget some Garrison Keillor, too.

Wrod. Keillor rocks. Makes it look easy, too. All the great ones do.ETA: And I'm quite proud of having made him laugh once, as evidenced by taking every opportunity to talk about it.

Because books.
Deb, you're not hogging. I love your drabbles. I'm not getting anything for this one, other than falling in love, and that was more of a sharp smack in the forehead for me. And I've got all fingers crossed for you this year -- I'm about three chapters away from done with Weaver, which rocks so very hard. I looove Penny and Ringan, and Penny and Ringan together, and all of it. The way you describe their encounters with Will and Betsy give me goosebumps.
Kristin, that sounds wonderful! I have a blog on blogspot which I just started updating again, and I will gladly link to your site when it's ready, not that I imagine too many people will be reading my blog. But I do have books coming out in March and May and next January, so hopefully some of those readers will check in. (And they told two friends, and they told two friends...)

I'll let y'all know when mine is up, but I think I'm going to see how well I can sustain it before I make much of an effort to spread the word. I'm afraid that life will, once again, get in the way, and it will turn into one of the thousands of orphan websites that no one has swept or dusted for years.
