Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Jilli, that's such fabulous news--go you!

erika, yay you, too! Having your stuff read is great. I keep wanting to read podfic for people. Alas, I have no podtech in my house.

Yay, Jilli! I can't wait to read it.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

A belated "Yay!" to Jilli. I am not at all surprised. Now I'm just waiting for it to come out, so that I can give copies to all my friends. They already have copies of Vampire People.

Editor question: "mission-driven" or "mission driven"?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

How's it being used in the sentence? If it's something like "mission-driven goals", then it's hyphenated because it's an adjective.

Because books.

What Dana said. Most hyphenation is placement- and use-dependent.
