Thursday, October 14, 2004Was one of the people who watched the debate last night. Am still not happy.
It all reminds me a great deal of the bit in Jasper Fforde's Something Rotten, where the bad guy and another gent are at a debate, and they each get points based on how well they defelect the question. Extra points for not only completely ignoring the intent of the question, but hijacking it for your own political agenda. Well, maybe not *that* bad, but close.
For those of you who think I'm never going to post *anything* of writerly importance ever again, I give you a link sent to me via my publisher's author group. My editor finds the neatest, most interesting links:

"A First-Time Nonfiction Author Learns That Getting Published Is Not Necessarily the Hard Part" is the tag line, and I think the article, "The Education of Stacey Sullivan" is a must read.
