Heroes
I'm too disillusioned with the world to have any heroes
About me: I'm a writer/archivist, or is that archivist/writer? The archivist is the boring part and unfortunately doesn't involve doing anything particularly interesting, so the less said about that the better (and I've already wasted too many words on why I'm not going to be wasting any more words).
On the writing side, I've had a story published in Mam Tor's Event Horizon - have one lined up for a future edition, if we ever see it again. I also have two comic book projects on the boil with King Tractor Press. And I'm working on a children's novel at the moment, although that one doesn't have a home to go to.
Oh, your page isn't accepting big fat glitter Mickey Mouse's with HAPPY BIRTHDAY screaming in neon blue . . .
Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY, dearest. We love and miss you, but don't feel guilty. Really. Don't :-)
Oh, Jacob wants to come and visit you. You won't mind if we bring the dogs and the chicken, too? Almost everyone is housebroken. I'm the only slacker :-)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We love you loads and loads!
How kind of Mel to post a pic of my Mona Lisa impression. : ) How r u? I may jump the pond again soon and visit. Hope u r done with construction, ha! : )
Now that I'm one of your friends, does that mean I can say rude and vulgar things on your site? Get to hear how your are between visits to the US? (Would you come and kick the dogs, they're barking and driving me crazy.) Oh, and Jacob says, "Hi." He wants to talk to you about Resident Evil. :-)
