Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

*Now* I need to work out how to tweak my web log reporting to track that usage.

Fun times!

Thanks for the feedback, guys (and Stephanie, there's totally a reason I was testing with that pic--a) I wanted one with a caption and b) I wanted it to be really easy to look at for an hour or so).

Compassionately intolerant

I totally agree with Liese about the button on the bottom.

And, for what it is worth, I don't find those ads intrusive at all.

It is a stunning picture. I just love it.

So, if you were me, and you were hanging out your shingle to do freelance librarian/research work, what would you call yourself? I am going to specialize in 3 areas: visiting local libraries and archives to scan/photograph/transcribe items that are unavailble online or through Interlibrary Loan; teaching research skills and streamlining research workflows through the use of digital tools (Zotero or related software, dropbox, etc.); and organizing and getting online home or institutional (church, etc.) libraries. Sort of want Cincinnati in the name as a lot of the appeal to researchers nationally is I am here and can check stuff for them. I need a formal name and something that can go in the url whatchamacallit.wordpress.com. Ideas?

More seriously "Researcher" slightly less seriously but still might work "Consulting Librarian"

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Me too. And that title draws me in. Like I'd want to hire you just because.

Me three. Consulting Librarian sounds cool.

In Elementary, they defined Consulting Detective to mean he didn't get paid.

Is that from the books?
