and just for Steve:

*to the barely recognizable tune of "Happy Birthday"*

"Congratulations to you.
Congratulations to you.
Congratulations dear I'm so jealous I could carve your intestines out with a spork but you've earned it so let's celebrate anyway SteveJ
Congratulations to you."

What? What's that, oh mistress tiger?

Louder and more verses, you say?

With more enthusiasm, you say?

Your wish is my command, oh Stripedy Tryant

one thing I would like to say--my friend--I've known you for a long while now---I want you to know as your friend what I am willing to do for you...


FMAOD:D

You'll notice the ad photos of those things only show males. Why, you ask? Because women know what a hellacious job it is to clean up sticky, squashed, gooey marshmallows from the walls, floor, rug, clothes, hair. AAUUGGHH!

Steve, for your baby shower I'll just give you a souped-up Tickle Me Elmo. (Annoyance without the cleanup.) Mwahahahaha!

Ze news is: My novel was accepted for publication this morning. I'm now trying to work out contract details, hence my reticence in posting much about this.
Congrats StevenJ! That was fast wasn't it? And I seem to remember you were worried.....


Look forward to hearing the details later so I can live vicariously ;)

Congrats Steven! Is this your second book being accepted or the one that you had been working on before with your publishing company? Either way, great work to get it out there!!

Phew, back at last! :D

Thank you to everyone who's congratulated me. :) I think that luck plays a big part in a writer's life, and I've certainly been fortunate today - anyone who's read my rubbish stories will know just how fortunate. :D

Mr Casey sir, good to see you. :) I left Salvatore Publishing recently, on very amicable terms, I'm still in touch with Guy & he was kind enough to wish me well. Therefore, the company I'm about to sign with is a different one, specialising in horror/supernatural books. :)

I suspect the eyes are where they belong, on the top of it's head. :D

Haven't you people ever seen a ray before?

It's the 'sneezing through his eyes' bit that bothers me, Dad..I mean, Haggis. :D

You know, I'm a parent, and generally I don't address my daughter's mother as "Mom" nor does she call me "Dad" unless we're talking to our daughter. (Though I suspect Mommy calls me other things when she's out of earshot. :D)

So.. I'm wondering... Steve...

Is this the part where Jack Nicholson starts slapping you as you go back and forth between "He's my brother" and "He's my son?" :D

We interrupt this thread to bring you a newsflash: The deadline for the Horror Prompt is March 2nd, folks, so there's still time to dash off a killer story! The link to all the relevant info is in my sig *points downwards* :D

*looks guilty*

I can't seem to find a story in me for this one, and I can't figure out why, since it's such a cool challenge, broad enough for folks to find something that suits them. :(

I did get just over 1k last night, between two different stories. I'm getting all ADD about writing these days. But ya see that, DL? I've already met my goal for this week! :D

Careful, Steve... too many guys around here get in trouble when they start pointing downwards and saying "Check out my sig."

... Ray's one of them. :D

I really liked that excerpt on your blog, Ms C. Pity you couldn't have used that story, chief.

Yeah...it wandered pretty far from the legend, didn't it? :roll: Thanks, though, Steve-O.
