You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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

Good god, that post uses hock as a verb twice. It's blistering my eyeballs.

My sister bought me this out of nowhere. I didn't even know she knew thinkgeek was a thing. So I'm wearing it today along with these and feeling quite cross-pollinatedly geeky.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Another envelope has a check for a good deal more for a romance. It was one written very much to formula and she cranked it out in a short while and the publisher sent it fairly soon after she submitted the manuscript.

I think I should be aspiring to do this. Writing serious fiction is HARD.

Because books.

Most romance writers are not getting big checks, though, to be clear. Not until they're hitting the Times list, etc.

Okay, Erin, that thing with the arms of the hoodie is really fucking nifty. Who the hell thought of that? They deserve a pat on the back and a brownie cupcake.

I had PopTarts for breakfast and frozen White Castle for lunch. I think I've reached a new nutritional low.

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

Writing serious fiction is HARD.

Writing is hard. For serious. The amount of privilege that dude is snorting should be fatal.
