Right?
I've been pondering all day. When I was supposed to working, but pondering was more fun.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

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
It seems like an epic project to edit, though.

You have not seem some of the mansucripts I've edited, especially lately. Believe me, this would be FUN.
Also, it's not like thirty-five people just jumped in here offering epic stories. We should talk about it and see who wants to participate.
And if people don't want me to edit it, I would ... not! No big. I'm just completely willing to do it and very good at organizing as well as editing.

I think with an anthology we wouldn't be looking for epic stories. Hee.
What kind of stories would we be looking for? Generally, anthologies have a theme.

“Not dead yet!”
I would be up for that.
And I've got stuff around that I could definitely expand upon. God, it would be FUN to write just for the fun of writing again. I think that's what I really need right now.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Oh, that is an intriguing idea. I can't promise I'd write something for it (although I would like to), but I would definitely buy it.

I don't think we'd need a theme. It could just be a collection of short fiction. Or, like, "original writing under fifteen thousand words" or something.

I also think it could take us a long time to consense on a theme. And if we did want to use one, it should be extremely broad -- like, "Buffistas Explore Darkness" not vampire stories, or even stories about goats, or what have you.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

For that I might be willing to make an exception ...
