That was one of the lines that I liked writing. @M-Shel: 1. So much work for tea. 2. Dude. 3. Remarkable. Yes. @Tad: Thanks for the encouragement. It's appreciated. @Erin: If I ever catch up, I'll hopefully start sending them out again. @Tyler: Thanks. That was one of the lines that I liked writing.

Reading the backlog and leaving comments is weird for my time perception. I also look forward to finding out what your novel is about and having a copy in my hands printed on awesomeness.

I've been unemployed with a baby in the house. It DOES all get easier. *You don't suck. I was interested in the Beard Pages, and have no earthly reason to keep reading Life of Riley, and yet I keep coming back. That must mean something to a writer (even if there isn't any coin involved). *Your thoughts on the Internet and Facebook ring both true and false to me. On the one hand, you're right about the trend toward frivolity... but I think you're failing to look PAST that point. There is real utility and real human interaction going on in between all of the plastic cleverness - I would point to this blog as an example of that. I look forward to catching up on the next few "weeks", and even though I have no clue what your novel is about, I look forward to finding out ... preferably when the first copies hit the Nook/Kindle/iPad/shelf nearest me. Rock on, Beard Man. Three things:

Tea, really good tea, is quite good---bag dunkin' is no way to go. Get thee a press. 2. I think 'brownie wizard' would be a better band name (if you know what i mean) 3. Isn't amazing how many decibals worth of noise can come out of such tiny little lungs? 1. Tea, really good tea, is quite good—bag dunkin’ is no way to go. Get thee a press.
