Not saying I wouldn't want to give my draft to Stephen King's wife to read, but she's not exactly available. I'll probably end up giving it to some freak on the internet.

Once it's done.

In a few months.

Maybe.

That's what they all say. Then they get the manuscript... and then the screaming... the bendy-straw eye-gouging...

Drove up to UCSF for an eye app't for Young Ms. Shake6.5. Left the house at 7:30 am got there at 8:30 for a 8:45 app't. At the desk they say, we were just trying to call you. Dr. X is on jury duty and won't be here to see you. The person that was supposed to call you Friday didn't come in. Sorry 'bout that.

Ha, you're doing how many words? I'm in novella or short novel territory, I think. About 40k, maybe 50k tops, though I won't really know until it's finished. It's just under 12k now. And by the way, my idea of good progress works out to about 600 words a night, it seems.

I will race you if that will make you finish yours faster, so don't tempt me.

Hey man, it's time to expand your vocabulary.

Filos is the masculine. For striv, and other girls, use fili. With the stroke on the first i. When it's on the second it means kiss.

or maybe he's saying she's a series of puff pastry envelopes

Time for Bravus to expand his cooking vocabulary. Granted, the two pastries are similar - ie, fucking hard to make, involving laminating butter between dough.

And, andreas, chicks are fillies in Greek as well?!

I dont think that filo is made with butter. I do think that striv should take some asprin, get some rest and post to us in the morning.

Fine. I just won't spot you the 20k, then. Begin!
