Viva la Grove!

The Tangent reviewer corrected his article, I think, but Lovegrove lives on in me. And in my dogtown story, on which I wrote 400+ words last night. Their names ended up Seth and Sephie, because I know you eagerly awaited that news.

But the call of the novel is strong, even if I don't have a plot yet. I will find something, somewhere... Maybe Isyllt can wander around staring at the setting for a while.

Phone powers, Activate!

This from copperwise:

This is reposted from bisexual and goes out to all of my activist peeps out there:

"If you, reading this, are so inclined to make one phone call, you will nullify a phone call from an anti-gay nutjob. Oh, excuse me, an anti-gay crusader. Kraft Foods is a major sponsor of the 2006 Gay Games. The nutjobs/crusaders have targeted them and are flooding their phone bank. Want to do something about that? Here's their phone # 1-800-323-0768. Toll free. It only takes a couple of minutes to call them and voice your support for their sponsorship. One call to nullify. Please pass the word to your friends, email addy book, relatives, whomever.

Latest word this morning is that the Kraft phone folks are initially wary when told the call is about their sponsorship, then immensely relieved upon hearing the support, and are still asking people to spread the word because the nutjobs are winning. This entire thing is ridiculous on some level, but it's what we're all reduced to."

I called, I spoke with a rep, he was delighted to get my call and thanked me for the support. Please call and feel free to pass on this request, it's a good thing!

So call, if you have a minute. And someone remind me to call when I get out of work.
