(ok, the scary thing is I’ve learned to spell that without looking) says she’s going to try to back off, relax a little, revise, and use the breathing time I’ve bought myself by working like a bloody lunatic since 2001 to fall in love with some of my new stuff before I have to write it. Shortly before I read that, I was saying to Ted that I hated starting new books, because unless I’d been struck with inspiration and really really really wanted to write it RIGHT NOW it…

major cool.
I am awash with potential colorists. The “I can’t possibly afford you” pro was willing to make a deal. Then he saw the inks: “The work is indeed exemplary. The lead character has a great “Huntress” like feel to her, and the artist is very talented.

small triumph (ww lock)
I’m down a pound, maybe a pound and a half from last week. I’m a combination of pleased and sort of moopful over that; one wishes, after all, to IMMEDIATELY OBLITERATE any weight one has put back on.

Nicked from . A. Pick five films you enjoy. B. Don’t post their titles, just a relatively well-known quote from each. 1. “Okay. If that’s the way you want to play it. But when the gun is in my hand, we’re going to have this conversation again.” 2. “Magnificent, isn’t she? I first saw her in 1949. The land of tolerance. Peace.” “Are you going to kill me?” “Yes.” “Why?” “Because there is no land of tolerance.” 3. “Legano, illegano…is gray area.” 4. “Remember what the Python boys say.” “What,…
