Anyone else have the Madonna song, Crazy for you, stuck in their head? Just me eh?
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Anyone else have the Madonna song, Crazy for you, stuck in their head?
Well, I didn't.
Eh, it beats the Little Pink and Purple Pills remix I had going.
I'm on the library waiting list for Bet Me. And it's a loooong list.

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse
I was thinking more Crazy for You from Gershwin, myself.

I think I've got a Patsy Cline one going. Is it Patsy Cline? Music not my thing.
There's tied-to-the-couch hot sex in Bet Me.
Here is a nice little reading list.
I don't think I've ever seen the term "novelette" before. Novella, yeah. The list has novella, novelette, and short story. What's the difference?

And this is why I end up getting hooked on reading threads. I read the new stuff, then forget why I came here.
Deb! When's your thing at Book Passage? Is it this weekend? I couldn't find it in Press or Beep Me. It's coming up, right? I'm planning to go and will recruit people to go with me. I think - it depends on when it is.
I'm turning over a new leaf at work, I swear, so I'm signing out and will be back much, much later.

Sorry! I didn't mean to share the misery.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I went to school with a girl called Novelette.
I think it's the same as a novella.

If I only had a brain...
It's a matter of length. There's almost no place you can sell a novelette nowadays.
SFWA says novelette is "between 7,500 and 17,499 words", novella is " between 17,500 and 39,999 words".
