YES! This time we've got two new pieces for you -- in addition to another bookstore episode of Dusty Plastic HELL: Hot Flash, we've got (finally) a new article entitled How to write a 50,000 word novel in a month. Whether you participated in or ever plan on participating in NaNoWriMo or not, I think it's worth a read if you're at all interested in writing, as it offers a sort of indirect critique of fiction writing -- and what people think constitutes good writing -- on a larger scale. In any case, I think it's pretty smart work for someone who can't get published to save his life! HA! And despite the numerous excerpts from my own intentionally wacky novel, The Absolute Strangest Christmas Story Ever Told, it's probably the most serious Scary-Crayon piece yet. Enjoy! And do let us know what you think, mmmkay?  😀

Oh yeah, and there are some new links on the page too -- they're noted in the Site Talk block on the content pages. Ja!
