Here We Go Again... (I tried to make uselessness' day)

I hope it’s not illegal to try and make more than one person’s day. But I did anyway.

I dug way back into uselessness’ archive, finding what looks to be his first ficlet, entitled One Sip Too Far (http://ficlets.com/stories/303) from well over a year ago. It’s clear to see he’s kept his quirky and, shall we say, odd writing style and subject matter from the very beginning. If I do say so myself, it has served uselessness well.

I decided to take his idea in this ficlet and extend the madness a bit further in Shocking Revenge. (http://ficlets.com/stories/37563) I tried to capture the same quirky-ness (key word: tried).

Hope I made uselessness’ day!

You absolutely did. I secretly always wondered if that particular Ficlet would ever see some love. ;-)

¿Y que vela cargas tu en este entierro?

Off-Fic-Broadway Series

I am extremely honored to be accepted into the legendary League of Awesomeness. In formal occasions I’ll be known as La Pianista Irlandesa: Music Librarian of Randomness.

Ah-ha! MP Challenge! (http://ficlets.com/stories/42742)
Up until Oct. 5th!
Good luck, force be with you, godspeed, feliz navidad, yatta yatta yatta

My life, in the words of Roy Blount Jr.:
“Maybe you had to be there.”

Other than that: I write, read, hablo espanol (speak spanish), listen to NPR, hang with my buds, sing (soprano 1) and let my imagination run wild.

You like my stuff? Or hate my stuff? Leave a comment, let me know! (if you’re in the “hate” catagory, you better give me good rock-solid reasons)
Like a thread or a standalone, and you think it could be longer, sequel! Unless you’re really hesitant and you feel you need my approval, note me. But if not, just go, man, go!

Want to start a series? Send me a note with a link to the beginning. (As someone who’s got a lot of stuff to juggle, I can’t say I can accept all offers. But it never hurts to ask! I love collaboration.)

I may diss-cah-peer for the month of April for Script Frenzy 2009 Interested? Check out www.scriptfrenzy.org.
