I are serious blogger

[julesjones]

Most of the time I'm not a serious blogger, and this LJ is random burbling at my friends. Occasionally I think of something I ought to write a serious post about. Usually I forget about it before doing the "writing" bit. I need a To Do list...

Conversation with the genre -- plagiarism, and allusion, and intertextuality. Posted.

Revise the draft of Girls who like boys who do boys (maybe next decade...)

Answer crossthebar    's question in the comments of the above, which is likely to be a post in itself.

Editing is a feature, not a bug.

Your publisher is not your Best Friend Forever.

RTFGuidelines, there's probably a good reason why publishers say they don't want genre X.
(I actually wrote a draft of this while I was offline over Christmas, then found someone else had already posted much the same thing to EREC, so I need to refocus it.)

Prepare this year's militant-liberal-Anglicans-R-Us Easter Sunday post ahead of time, because I'm going to be at Eastercon on posting day.

Welcome to the Panopticon, little author. Posted.

*g* Can I sign up to Militant Liberal Anglicans R Us?

[julesjones]

Certainly. All you have to do is post at least once a year "Actually, I'm a Christian, and I don't believe that" in response to someone claiming that "all Christians believe [bigotry of choice]".

Usually it's a far-right American "Christian" who sets me off, but it varies. I think my most spectacular rant to date was before your time -- you'll find it here:

It's a deal :) I generally do that in comments anyway, so making a post about it shouldn't be too difficult.

Good rant!
