We were talking about being out, like at a fair, and seeing someone you know but don't necessarily want to see. You know? 

First person: Why did you wave at ::designated d-bag:: ??

2nd:             Because I know him! It's not a crime to wave at someone you know!

First:            It is if you know him but now hate him! Would you wave at Hitler??

And I said:    Oh, hi Adolph! (waves) Oh, God, he's coming over. Yeah, hi, Ade, how's it going? Yeah, there are a lot of Jews here, aren't there? (Eye roll at friend)  Yes, I know, potato pancakes are really latkes. Uh-huh, oh, someone's calling to me...gotta go....

So no, it is not necessary to wave to Hitler just because you know him. Or any other designated d-bag.

Writing is easy. I just open a vein and bleed.

Thank you Chris Baty for writing the book. It's so helpful. I like guidelines and kooks, and you get plenty of both in No Plot No Problem!

Blurbs R Us!

I changed all the calendars. I have my writing hat on. 

This month I am writing a novel in 30 days.

I have Chris Baty's book in front of me...No Plot, No Problem: A Low Stress, High- Velocity guide to writing a novel in 30 Days.

I am going to eat a banana for pre-novel potassium.

I am telling you because I want you to know. So I can't weasel out.

More soon.

Wish me luck?

On April 20 I posted I was happy about The State coming out in a box set. 

I was happy, and, a bit skeptical. Those of you who are State fans know the feeling.

I am purchasing this set today.

When I have it in my hands, and start watching all the dvd goodness, then I will know. KNOW. Know it is possible.

What is possible?

Anything.
