November CRUSHERS (Page 33)

I've written (and published) all sorts of stuff, but finished no books yet.

THE project I'm working on is a blended novel. The basic story is a young girl who loves animals and grows up to be an assassin (but a funny one).

Other books I've started:

An apocalyptic novel
Translating my father's autobiography
My mother's biography
My biography

This dude's chest, it was RIPPED. Beautiful hard muscle striations--the kind gym rats want but don't realize you've got to battle the raging, foamy surf to get--and a tasteful smattering of light-brown, silky hair, just enough to feel smooth and reassuring against my cheek.

What have you published?

Doesn't help if you don't finish them.

I have a friend that is an author. He usually waits until about two weeks before the deadline and then stays up all night cranking out the book.

A few gazillion extremely boring academic articles. One of them is interesting, if you liked the movie The Fifth Element.

I've ghostwritten for Joe Friel and a number of pro cyclists, and several other athletic trainers.

Boatloads of marketing and business materials.

Curriculum for teaching writing (still in use at University of Southern California and parts of it being used with permission at a bunch of other universities across the States).

Yes, because he stuck his tongue out at me and very markedly looked down at my melons.

This wasn't one of those days that you "accidently" went outside naked was it?

Here's something crazy for you. My latest project is to make some changes to a report that was originally converted from a DOS program in 1987.

The last song was Frosty the Snowman by the Jackson 5. Pretty good except for the super low bass part seemed out of place.

It would be, with the Jackson 5!

I *love* Jingle Cats. I have no idea how to explain this.

Fifth element ROCKS.

Shermbelle - 2010-11-12 9:16 PM Dang peeps, having a hard time keeping up with you all this month. Come home from work and another 5 pages.

It is my sister's favorite movie and one of my favorites. Enough that I published a paper on it, and opera. And after watching it, even particularly one scene, a few hundred times I still love it.
