Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

I'm still getting Favorited on FanFic.net for stories that are ten years old. It's kind of sad and sweet that people are putting alerts on them, hoping for sequels.

The problem with having gotten the Harry Potter stamps from the Post Office is deciding which stamp is appropriate for the various pieces of mail.

When I was mailing something to the IRS, I was sad that there was no Voldemort stamp.

I'm longwinded tonight I guess.

Frightening electronic bulletin seen on the freeway on the way home: Nevada flooding. No route open to Las Vegas.

IE, you ain't getting to Sin City from the north.

That's entirely perfect.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's lovely.

Today I learned that I am now one of three candidates for the job I've been doing since mid-November. Dog and Pony interviews to be scheduled, undoubtedly during the next three weeks of tech. Nothing like a little sleep deprivation as interview prep.

Yes, but I am unabashedly pleased. Always brightens my day. And makes me think "I should write more".

What's the upside for spooky lullabies? I just heard [link] and I'm quite perplexed.

I still run into people who've read and loved Kid Dynamo, which I wrote over 25 years ago. One of the most amazing things about being a writer (or creative artist, period) is that you never know what piece is going to hit somebody in ways that you might never have anticipated.
