Things I have been called.

People keep trying to define me. This is okay, because it is funny. In the past few months, I have been called...

...the bastard love child of Neil Gaiman and Charles de Lint. (Biologically implausible!)
...Charles Addams crossed with Dorothy Parker. (This would make an awesome alternate-world supernatural romance FROM HELL.)
...a combination of Stephen King, Warren Ellis, and Rainbow Brite. (Angry cartoon horror author attacks city, film at eleven, evacuation at eleven seventeen.)

Have I mentioned recently that I am way too easily amused?

Everything's great in this good old world;
(This is the stuff they can always use.)
God's in his heaven, the hill's dew-pearled;
(This will provide for baby's shoes.)
Hunger and War do not mean a thing;
Everything's rosy where'er we roam;
Hark, how the little birds gaily sing!
(This is what fetches the bacon home.)
-- Dorothy Parker, "The Far Sighted Muse"

I love Dorothy Parker like burning.

Goddess willing and zombies don't rise, there will be a revival of the Black Valentines gathering next year (Feb 13th) and I will break out the Dorothy Parker for readings.

I should still be in the UK/Germany on February 13th, so I shall applaud you from afar.
