The goat on the cover would be a compromise I could live with, but we would surely hear from the monkey contingent.
I fell down and got confused. Willow fixed me. She's gay.

Hmmm...
So many decisions. I can't please everyone, so I'll have to figure out the right synthesis.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Well, clearly the theme should be "Not Goats". It can be titled This Book Is Not About Goats or Contains No Goats.

I have decided for sure to remove another character. I keep removing the guys. Probably because there were more guys anyway I suppose.
Goodbye Edmund, you weren't a bad guy, you just didn't do anything especially important in the plot.

I figure I'll just tell beta readers, hey, at chapter 16 you might notice this one dude just disappears, it's okay he never existed now. The fact that it won't have any serious effect on the story probably speaks volumes about his necessity.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
No goats were harmed by exclusion from this book.

So basically, every story is set in the world without goats?

Because books.
In all seriousness, I like the idea of "dark" or "darkness," but, you know, I proposed it, so.
There are a million things we could toss out there, though. Anyone want to throw some ideas out here and we can compile a list?

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm not anti-goat...I just couldn't write about one. But one of my favorite books in the world Even Cowgirls Get The Blues has many in it.
