  Are you like your grandparents?  Or are you very different? I’m quite excited by all the new science that is going on: biological engineering, nanotechnology, the particle collider, and so on.  We seem to be on a cusp of new age of technology.

  zoecarnate — Authority: 534

  Welltun Cares Presents — Authority: 125
  We might go into this at a later date, but shortly after I became ambulatory I went into a local Borders and picked up a new How to Write a Novel thing.  This was a set, with book and little worksheets.  Sort of like the Marshall Plan for Novel Writing without the overpowering reek of formula fiction.

I write the word “pouty” and my spell check red-lines it.  Hell, it just did it again for WordPress. Pouty is a word, damn it.  I’m right ...
