Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

The status is NOT quo.

Insent, P-C. Thanks.

(Officially in nail-biting land now.)

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

I wish I were productive like that, Deb. But for me, I'm doing well. About 1000 words a day.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm listening to this half-hour J.J. Abrams interview right now, so I'll get to it after that. I want to give it my attention.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Kristin, as has been remarked before, I am a fantasy ignoramus. I honestly can't give you any feedback on the trope.

But if you'd like some feedback on the writing itself, fluency setc, my pleasure, ma'am. Send it along; it'll go into the queue right behind the three chapters of Susan's I'm going to try and get to tonight.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Kristin, I'd love to beta if you don't mind another fantasy novice!

The wide universe is the ocean I travel, and the earth is my blue boat home

Kristin, I'd love to take a look, but it might take me a few days to get to it.

Um, erika?

There is no planet on which that isn't beautifully productive.

Think about it. If you play the numbers game? That would give you a 90,000 word manuscript in three months.

OK, well, that's an average...but ok, I'll be proud.
