I’m more than just an unknown indie writer. But not much more.

Me, being rounded up along with everyone else my age by a triumphant DSA: Wait! No! You don't understand! I followed menaker and cushbomb before they even started the podcast! NO! STOP! WE WERE MUTUALS!

He set about doing the dishes with a sort of wild abandon he had never known in his youth, had never imagined possible. One, two! One, two! Plates and glasses, forks and knives, all fell before him. One, two! One, two! "Snicker-snack!" he shouted, startling the cat.

More and more these days, I think about this line from “Bull Durham”: “The world is made for people who aren’t cursed with self-awareness.”

A speed demon at the typewriter, Malzberg wrote quickly and brilliantly in a variety of genres including mystery, thrillers, and erotica, but his core work was in science fiction.

I just can't see buying cashew halves and pieces when it's not that much effort to buy whole cashews and break them up myself.

If I can't get a table at some trendy restaurant, I imperiously say, "Do you know who my father is?" and when they say no, I start crying and say I don't think I'll ever find out, then I start talking about growing up without a father, and by then they usually find me a table.
