Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

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."

I know, Amych!

I went, Temeraire's got a geeky girlfriend! ::flails:: so cute!

Also, check Naomi's LJ: she's going on a book tour! She's going to two stores in the Bay Area, in fact: Borderlands and Dark Carnival, in late July.

Heh. That was my reaction as well.

Well, that and, the other day when I saw it on Amazon "Dang it, in HARDBACK??"

Speaking of author tours (NO, not one for me): who can I sweet-talk into going to the Pickerington OH B&N on the 28th of June? My favorite YA author, Ellen Schreiber is going to be there, and I want to get a signed book.

Lovey, I'd drive up there for you, but we won't be back from vacation yet.

BBC news item in which an excerpt from the Harry Potter pre-quel that was recently sold at auction is read. And in August a book is coming out that contains all the stories that were auctioned (includes stories from Neil Gaiman and Doris Lessing.)

Hmmm, did I spell Neil wrong? Does he go by "Neal"?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Nope, Sumi, you got it right -- Gaiman is Neil.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

It's spelled Neil. edit: x-posty

Heh, sumi, for a minute I thought you meant that Neil Gaiman and Doris Lessing had written stories in the Harry Potter universe!
