(no subject)

Andrew Vachss' Two Trains Running is sitting on my desk, next to the timesheets I need to turn in today, a stack of magazines to sort through, and umpteen boxes of bound periodicals to process.

How much work do we think I'll get done today?

Dastardly villains

Why can my villains not just villain? Every time I concoct a dastardly scheme, someone's always saying oh, I'd never do that. That's just mean. Can no one just follow the stinking script?

*shows Viridian the line in the contract that says "crazy ghost antagonist"*

*waits for her to concoct a better dastardly scheme*

*plans yet another rewrite*

Who do? You do. Do what?

I would also like to invoke some sub voodoo right now. Which loa is in charge of answer my frickin' query already? And I'm out of rum--think they'll take chartreuse and cloves?

Good things to read

A Hole in the City by Richard Bowes, live at SCIFICTION.

Love and lovelessness, redux

Nolove from Interzone, alas. Poor little story.

But...

Best.

Batman.

EVER.

Ohmygodsogood! Second best comic movie ever.

The answer? Rutger Hauer. Apparently he's some sort of good luck charm for comic book movies. They should get him for X3.

Oh yeah, it had the Firefly trailer too. Squeeeeeeeeee!
