That’s taboo

I’m off to the Barnes and Noble mega store near my house to pick up the latest guide to getting a literary agent. Almost off that is, because I don’t know the title at present, which just might pose a problem. Never fear, editor person will send me the official title in a few moments. Once the email hits the in box, I’m off to pick it up.

The wife and I went over to my mom’s for dinner last night. My stepfather got a new laptop for Christmas and he was showing it off to me. It looks like a nice piece of equipment, although I prefer a full size keyboard myself, as my fingers feel cramped on a smaller device.

I’m reading this great book this weekend called Shoot Out by Peter Bart and Peter Gruber who have loads of movie industry experience. The more I read about Hollywood the more it seems on the surface at least that the adage is true for writers in that business. Take the money and run.

Sounds good to me. I can live with a check a lot easier than an ulcer. And if I want an ulcer, I can always go back to doing what I was doing before.
