Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Let us know which issue it'll be in - I know I'll be buying a copy and I'm sure I won't be the only one.

Oh, yeah, especially on b.org...I couldn't have done it without y'all. You can't tell me it doesn't matter when editors are women, because I sent this around and some of the more guy-ish crime magazines did not care for it. Of course, there was not one moment at a strip club or where anyone snorts coke off a shapely female ass.(Although sometimes that makes me laugh if the chicks are models, because he'd probably do better with a straw, like a normal junkie. But I digress.)

I'm at chapter 48 out of 57 in my current wordcount-killing revision. I'm at 128,000 words and it looks like I'll be able to land this at 125,000-126,000 words. I'll need to tighten down about 2,000 - 3,000 words and I think I'll be at a reasonable wordcount for a fantasy novel.

What is even happening?
Gud, knowing from experience how small 3K words are, yet how much they can contain, do you really think you have to cut it that much more before submission.
I'm just thinking...Twilight went on for fricking ever, you know?
