I went and jumped into the deep end (the Uncle Jim and PublishAmerica threads) first. Only now am I getting around to introducing myself. That's as good an introductory "about me" tidbit as any, I suppose--I'm the guy who does things in no discernible order.

So, uh...hi.

I used the name "Galoot" as a main character in my novel, and it just so happened that he was a favorite of my agent.

And yes, I got Galoot from Galoot.

What a small world. A number of years back I happened to mention you to my buddy Michael Crichton. I wonder if he ever did anything with that.

Seriously? For real? That is the coolest, nicest thing I've ever heard (from a fully-clothed male, anyway)! I'm deeply honored, not to mention hoping like hell you get it published.

As for the rest of you, I'm sorry but you just can't compete with the whole "I based a character on you" thing. I won't acknowledge the other posts in this thread. ;)

Anyway, tri, let's talk some more about me.

I KNEW HIS MIGHTY PSYCHIC POWERS WOULD NOT LET US DOWN!

:hooray:

C'mere, you. Did you quit that silly job yet and figure out your real priorities? Like Photoshopping Ray Wong Ken dolls?

:e2arms:

I was going to say something arrogant and sexist about finding three quick replies from pretty girls, but that's just what you would expect me to say, so I won't.

Jenna: Priorities? <sigh> Feeding the kids. That means grabbing all the work I can get, even if it means lifting things. You know, with my arms and stuff. Icky. Actually, right now I'm making more not using my brains than I ever did when putting thoughts down on paper, so I'm not going to mess with it.

I figure that by the time I'm too old to labor for a living we'll all have access to "experience-sharing virtual reality," at which point I'll be able to beam my stories directly into the heads of other psychotics without having to worry about little details like spelling and grammar. Think of it. Galoot's Twisted Tales would be completely unlike what you'd get from the boring mainstream Experience Beamers. It'll be a hit, and I'll be a rich egocentrillionaire! w00t

AmyBA: Dead sexy. Same as always. You? Oh, and tired.

Birol: Thanks! And thanks for the... er... "art photos" you sent earlier, too. You wouldn't believe how they've spiced up my walls.
