It's starting already! You can keep it temporarily at bay by eating Fat Frog ice lollies...
47%Are you biting your nails?
No, I'm biting yours! Look down at your hands.
I looked. you got me, darn it!
I've just looked at what part of the story 47% is. Meh. That bit's "okay."
76% - hey! stop chewing my fingers! I need them to turn the pages...
Ouch! You do realise I have all sorts of fungal foot diseases....
Jim - a small bit of advice. Your profile on Amazon is completely empty. Put something in it - the more the better. People will click on it and try and foind out something about you. It is a good marketing tool as you can put in links to a website or blog and set up a list with your books in it. At least put up a profile picture of some kind...
Fungus adds flavour. Yes, I will do, thanks. I have an Amazon author central profile you can get to from the book page. Didn't realise I'd need yet another stinking profile. Sigh.
I know - I have an author page as well, although there is very little on it, and I don't see any way of linking the two.
You do? Cool. What have you written? "Dungeons & Typos: An Adventure In Pian"
Pian??I only have 1 short story in an anthology and 1 poem in the group book, so I barely qualify as an author.
Cool, give us a read?Pian. Pain. It's a typo. Too subtle, for ya?
Well the anthology is Re Awakenings, an anthology of Speculative Fictionand my story is the last one.The group book is A Goodreads Gallimaufrey. It was put together by Ignite and has some very cool stuff from our group members. And my poem.
Oh and I did get the typo thing. I just like playing dumb.
Oh, and cool - I shall probably pickup that short story collection. £2.99 on Amazon? I can stretch to that, I reckon.
I'm very smart really. Honest... I got all my exams.
You got all your exams...and then went into COBOL programming. Your argument is invalid. Mwwhhahahahahah!
I coded a triple nested if statement today! And it wasn't invalid at all. Well it compiled, anyway...
I sat staring at my Java all day and didn't do a jot of it.
Naughty boy. They'll find you out and kick you out, and you'll have to live on the money you earn writing...
Will you invite all your loyal fans to join you in your celebrations... ** flutters eyelashes beguilingly **
aw man, I'd forgotten about the bikes ;) :D

Dan: I remember you laughing the most at literally the weakest gag in the entire book. Round about the bikes section...
Oh I see - talk big, but can't back it up! I know your kind.... ** flounces off in disgust **
:)I do love a good flounce myself.
Hahrumpf!!!
Thats a nasty cough you have there. Here, have some of this...
Not the bleeping custard again. Nooooooo.
It has some other ingredients in it. Some are alcoholic...
you use alcoholics as ingredients? You sick, twisted, genius.
The recipe is a family secret - handed down for unrold generations...
Do people use the creative writing section here for just showing off whatever random scribbles they fancy, or is is supposed to be for stuff intended for to be released in some manner, at some point?
The what? Sorry I don't know.. and after 3 glasses of wine I think I may wait until tomorrow to go looking...
4 now. Head fuzzy. Going to bed.
If I drink more than 2 now - half a bottle, I wake up in the night feeling hot and I can't get back to sleep. The perils of old age.
Maybe a different type of booze is required. I've always been a lightweight myself. And have such an uncultured palate that most wine tastes like vinegar. And yet I love port.
.. in a storm?At 82% now - another pm follows. Stand by to repel borders!
Takes down less boarders per shot though. But I suppose it's a slightly more tasty way to go.
Whoops, boarders. Well done tht man! ;)Fewer boarders though eh.
Repelling borders is a good idea too. Push back the boundaries.
Oh no a less/fewer travesty. I need to think faster than I type once in a while.
