oh god. i know you'll update so i'll keep checking back.

other people have already said what i feel, especially you, patrick. a sad silence. a gap in the world.

is this the bright lights, big city version of this meme?

oh my god.

yes, very clever of her to mention the "christian allegory" and the homosexuality now. imagine if she had done it two or three years ago. and for some people those things will cancel each other out.

pnh: Sharyn! I like you fine!

Really, I'm a pinhead several times a day. I mean, come on, perspective.

texanne: thank you! summer 2008. in the meantime you can buy the special novellas commissioned for the fifth anniversary. there will be three. the first one is out right now. it is by diana wynne jones, who can use all of the britishisms she wants as far as i am concerned.

so i guess i will rephrase again:

my own personal past experience has gifted me with a truckload of pompous, affected, and/or condescending people who were and are prone to all sorts of linguistic adoption and abuse.

so this is a hot button for me. please still like me!

Sharyn gets the special version of HBO.

i like my version of hbo!

actually, i am at the wedding and i am here, too. and i am patrick and teresa and the bride and groom, and also a martian zombie.

i don't think the world has 50 people, beth. i think patrick and teresa are the center of the universe. we all just orbit.

i want photos!

what i love best about this book is that its acquiring editor was my friend erin, and its author is a friend of one of my authors.

please go to the dentist.

i simply ran it through the regender filter, which has its own ideas about names that can or cannot be changed.
