Sent my book in to the editor.
After a read through I think it is officially not sucky.
Should get one thorough edit before it's off to be typeset. Needs a li'l fixing but not too much. 31,860 words.
That's insane troll logic!

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Always Anti-fascist!
Wrod to the max. SO not dull to me. Trying to find a polite way to say "homophobic war-monger motherfucker" is boring to me. Tracking McCain's flip-flops is masochistic fun, though.ETA: Go, Hecubus! Will it be out by Christmas? Cause I'll buy it for my dad, if so.

The status is NOT quo.
Yay book being done! Congrats, Hec!
You all should check out Fantasy Senate. No idea where the link is anymore, but it's hysterical if you follow politics. It's basically fantasy football with politicians. My friend Jon was totally addicted to it a couple of years ago.

I don't know. After being six months late I have to wait a few days before I can pester my editor about the publishing date and GETTING PAID.
But it would be lovely if it came out before xmas.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
That's a lot of words, Hec. It'll be a while before Annabel can tote that one to school.
Which is to say, YAY for all three of you.
Also, since that picture of the taxi outside Rockefeller turned out to be a pretty apt metaphor for my day, thanks to you all for making me smile.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
A bunch of comic artists did some drawings of David Bowie: [link]

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Everyone remember: tomorrow is Talk Like a Pirate Day.
Correction: today is Talk Like a Pirate Day. Yarr. Oh! Happy birthday, Erikarr!
There is a firre somewhere.
That's what makes it hot in herre, right?

Okay, switching creative gears between Nickelodeon Slime Party, and Universal Halloween Horror Nights just might give me whiplash. This is what I get for editing Haunted House sounds in my hotel room.
