"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

When I pimp the book, I always say, "It's about community and relationship and the entertainment industry." Which is working well for generating interest, but now that I think about it, once they actually read it, I'll be Buffy-fan outed again.

In other news, the Biscuit & I just had a huge wrestling match wherein he took on me and & the office chair. It was very amusing, but he is now happily conked out. He's upside down, right behind my chair. And he's so happy his tail is wagging, but without any way to brace himself, his whole back half is wagging, including his legs waving in the air.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Also, since you've moved up the release date, does that mean my independent bookstore will get it earlier, too? Do I have to tell them the date's been moved up, or will it just come in?

eta: Hee. Now Seabiscuit is offended that I mocked him on the internets and he's stalked out of the room. He's flounced and flopped just outside of the door, looking at me balefully.

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

does the book mention this website by name?

It's peppered throughout the book, yes.

Maybe there needs to be an edition with code words to hide the Buffy connection. Instead of Buffy the Vampire Slayer it could be Bucky the Van Tire Sailor or something.

I seem to have caught the psycho from shrift.

Sorry. I woke up stupid this morning, and I hope that isn't contagious, too.

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

Thanks, Jesse!

Too late.

smart biscuit! no one wants to be teased on the internets if they aren't participating in the internets.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Heh. He's apparently forgiven me now; dog attention spans, you know. But for all I know he's out there every night all, "Can you believe they tried to feed me kibble? Oh, and I totally almost caught that skunk, if not for that interfering Girl."

I think I need to be quarantined.
