That's right, I said No Subject.  
I've figured out that the reason I blog less is that it's so easy to post Facebook links about things that are pissing me off that I don't feel the need to vent via blog like I used to. And the conversations over there can get just as amazing, flamey, or random as they do in any blog. Plus, there are FAR less people here than at FB, or even LJ.

Behind on the NaNoWriMo. That's the bad news. The good news is that the book is kicking ass. I don't subscribe to any of that silence your inner editor nonsense. I can't really do that, especially since I have a 2012 publication slot. Mr Publisherman likes where I'm going with it--and it's certainly reasonable to think I can write about hordes of cannibalistic (eventually) undead. This book is a pretty large undertaking for me, another multiple 1st person narrative, but on a much grander scale than I'm used to.
Also, after I leave work today, I am not due back in until Tuesday. If I can't get ahead on the NaNo by that point, I probably suck at what I do.

I wish TV would stop being so good. That would help. I also wish horror people would stop posing fucking spoilers for movies and shows that have only been available for a short time, or are still in theatres. In the last week I've been spoiled for ep 7 of Dexter, sp 2 of Walking Dead, the movie Catfish, and the movie Dead Snow. Okay, Dead Snow is probably not high drama--but that's really not the point. Why can't people just be fucking respectful.
PS: Verbal Kint is Keyser Soze.

My 40th birthday party is shaping up to be a grand affair. November 27th (the Saturday after Thanksgiving) at my place. 8pm until Question Mark. And there will be much rejoicing.

Actually dudes, I posted this on Dreamwidth and am crossposting it here. It doesn't mean I love you any less. Honest. On Dreamwidth? Add me: "Wednes."

Oh, right on!
H has the night off work, and some friends I see far too seldom are making the drive. Plus, I think the guy I had a crush on in college is coming.

PS plz bring a camera, as ours is terrible.

You must not listen to your inner editor, young lady!

I wrote on my blog a little while back about this hilarious article by this author. I can't remember her name, but I remember she had a pretty impressive list of publications. Anyway, she would list a given standard piece of writing advice and then say, "Whatever", and proceed to discuss how she violated this rule while writing. It was really funny.

Nice. There's a lot of that happening in the HWA guide to writing horror. A lot of You may have heard XX. Well, fuck that.

The idea that it's best to write with no regard for consistency or even quality is kind of bunk.

You are one of the very few people I know who actually post anything of substance to Facebook, actually.

No way!
Thanks, man. I'm smiling right now.

If you ever know what I had for dinner though, just ask. ;-]
