Stole this from Curtis at Can’t See the Forest. Someone alert Gawker: How did my biography get on the web already? Must be a leak somewhere; when in doubt, blame Judith Regan.

Show me the luv at the Bloggie Awards, people!

Oh so true. That made me laugh out loud.
You forgot glazing over when women tell you about their new curtains and them smiling grimly and moving away when you describe your excitement over the imminent delivery of a book on Thomas Jefferson.

I know a guy or two who tell women at clubs that they are currently working on a book. Seems to work every time.

Philipa, given how much I detest banal conversations about curtains, I consider any conversational twist that truncates such unendurable scenes as a godsend. I’m all for sending those women away, shaking their heads and muttering, “She’s just not LIKE us!”
Alas, Stilettogirl, the “writing a book” trick doesn’t work for women. Men are too afraid you’ll be writing down their every move. Tragically, most men don’t actually make good material anyway.

Writing erotica works too for some reason. So much for only us guys want it ;)

Ever since Rowling made her first hundred million, writers have experienced a boost in the sex appeal stakes.

OMG, so true!!! I especially love the small list at the left where it tells you why you shouldn’t. Classic.

Some of us have the dubious honour of living the dream.
