Well, it’s been a topsy turvy last few weeks for me.
To say that I was surprized and overwhelmed by the response of “Baby on Board” does not quite cover it. There’s a whole bunch of secret baby-ficcers out there just looking for an outlet and BoB sure was popular. In fact, it got more feedback than any of the other (admittedley only three) stories I’ve done. Who’d-a-thought?
So, now I’m down to three stories. To be more accurate, I’ve got one practically complete story (I can hear those snorts from here), one idea for a story with scraps of scenes done and a scene in search of a plot.
In other words…”I got nuthin'”.
And so it goes…
I was very saddened to hear news of the death of Kurt Vonnegut. Vonnegut changed the way I look at things. His books were, and still are, among my favorites. Breakfast of Champions is perhaps one of the funniest and saddest and maddest books I’ve ever read. Everyone seems to get something different out of his books. Galapagus, Blue Beard…oh man, I’m so thing.
What is the purpose of life?
To be the eyes,
the ears
and conscience
of the creator of the universe,
you fool.– Breakfast of Champions
