I remember that episode, unfortunately

Here's some fuel on the fire...

I'm arguing with an editor who says I can't say:

The editor said it would have to be "newspapers". Me, foolishly thinking that newspaper could be a count noun or a non-count noun looked it up. Most people agree with me. But here

you can see answer two, perhaps "They had newsprint for seating" would actually be more correct.

Interesting. time to bump them higher up on the dance card

Excel might be the better choice. Sort 655535 rows by any number of columns.

Ya know... a good editor is worth his weight in gold. But they're so hard to find. It's a kind of relationship - it's a person you're 'dating' because you'll need to trust them with something close to your heart (btw I'm referring to a good substantive editor). In the original VQ, I had one and he was like there's no way this can be one book, and I hated him, and he was right. He billed me 3k and I was so mad but I'd get him again if I could find him.

From here, on the outside, we're all wandering around in a daze

Hey Sol...

You need the ability to move threads so you can transplant contentious debates rather than having to end them.

Sure fire way to have to fill out post-mortem paperwork in the afterlife

William, thank you.

It sounds like you're trying to squeeze the story into a certain demographic rather than just tell the tale. There may be some merit in doing just that, but when you say it that way, I wonder a little.

Not so! I've guaranteed that Firestarter will survive to the end. And by survive, I mean be "animate" but not necessarily having a pulse or sanity. Plenty of people wake up with neither of these until their morning coffee, so it still counts as alive

get this onto the page before the sharpness of the experience dulls

"Dire" is always fun
