That's great, Allyson! That's the kind of buzz that can really help a book. I love your writing and plan to buy copies for all my friends and maybe a few to shove into the hands of passing strangers.
Damn you, Bridget! Damn you to Hades! You broke my heart in a million pieces! You made me love you, and then you-- I SHAVED MY BEARD FOR YOU, DEVIL WOMAN!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I was just spoiled for the end of Six Feet Under (which I am watching on DVD) on Jeopardy. And they did not use the Buffy Finale.
Aw. All I know is what happens to one of the characters because it was hard to escape that on TWoP.
Also, Allyson, that's pretty fantastic news. I really enjoyed what I read of your essays.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Allyson, does the book have a specific release date? (IOW, when should I start asking my local indie bookstores to carry it?)
Just August. I can't breathe!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Allyson--that totally rocks! As do you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Excellent news, Allyson!

You're not really saying you scratch their asses, are you? Someone please translate.

The rump. Not the rectum. Does that clarify?

I'm guessing he's referring to the fact that most cats really like a good scritch on the back at the base of their tail. Of course, it is SF, so....

It clarifies, but I'm tremendously easily pet-skeeved, so my eyebrows may take a while to un-raise.
