Putting Tale of the Body thief on hold to read my NEW RED DWARF BOOKS! WOOT WOOT. Bought omnibus because it has the first two in the same book! :D also bought Primordial Soup, Last Human, Backwards, and the first two that make omnibus (infinity welcomes careful drivers, and better than life) They are realllllly cheap. If I would have known I'd have bought them sooner!

Finished Omnibus last night, and want to share my favorite quote from the book, from Rimmer in a different perspective. He just found out his brother is going to marry his ex-wife, but their actually in a game called Better Than Life anyways. Talking about his brain, while he was getting married for a second time to what he found out later was his mother... O.O

"It strolled down Memory Lane, took a left into Lust Avenue, paused a while on a bench in Misery Park, sat in a bar on Self-Pity Street, kicked a can down Anger Way, took a wrong turning and wound up back in Misery Park again, before heading back home by way of the sickly, seedy, sweetness of Nostalgia Gardens."

I thought it was funny, and true. Page 332 of Omnibus.

Going to pick back up Tale of the Body Thief, and finish reading it since I'm about half way through.

i've been reading my own shite lately. especially, "unrest"... i have writer's block (probably from all the stress of impending surgery and exes who are assholes), sometimes reading my own work helps.

Really? heh My friend wanted me to finish Memnoch so that we could talk about Merrick. Servant of The Bones was really good if you ever have the chance. Would like to continue reading Demogorgon or anything from the necroscope series. I have my father's Mr. Hero comics up to issue 13. Awesome story. You can find alot of the back issue sets on ebay like Dawn for example :|

Sometimes reading a dictionary, something automatic like footnotes, can give you confident
assurance and increase your vocabulary. The best way to become a good is to experiment with many styles, accepting trial and error in the mix. I still hate the things I say sometimes, a lot of the time actually lol but before you know it you'll go back to edit and it will all make sence :|

I've just recently finished reading Mary Shelley's masterpiece Frankenstein. Beautiful and melancholy, I very much enjoyed the story =)

I'm reading The Girl With The Botticelli Eyes by Herbert. Lieberman. currently =) I believe I may have read Unrest, was it in the Novella? =)
