I read that as "poops pill" and got confused.
I need to share this because it bugged the hell out of me.
At my family do last weekend, I ran into my cousin, who is assistant director of the screen-writers guild. I had a winge to him about how NZ publishers only want to publish books about NZ.
He informed me that the reason for this was because the publishers can get a government grant for books about nz, and thus make more money.
They don't give a rats ass about books or a good story. They just want their money.
Sorry, that really, pissed me off.
Vent over now.
Which is why I'll probably look at Australian publishers. The market is somewhat larger and (in fantasy anyway) don't make demands about setting.
bcs someone asked:
Hmm...
Beady wee eyes...
Big forehead...

Screw you, dessert sheep.
you know, if you'd said that earlier, we could have avoided the whole unpleasantness with the restraining order
Cuz animals are funny?
I don't know about avoided. At best, delayed.

What's the difference between a dessert sheep and a desert sheep?

Help!
One of you guys must know something about computers!
Where do I find files that my pc has downloaded? It's downloaded HEAPS of data and I can't find what it is! Explorer sucks. When I had firefox I just clicked some button thing and it brough up a list of what files had been downloaded, but I can't even find an answer in the stupid help section on this thing!
Help, please! *sniff sniff*

You could either go to "recent items"
Or search the computer for "downloads"
ETA: That said, that is MY laptop I'm thinking of. Do you have a search bar when you click on "start"?

It's math.
math is EVIL
it destroys your brain.
Trust me.
I did, and I stand by it. Just look what math has done to your brain, for example.
(just teasing there, Race, we all know you're as sane and normal as the rest of us

A problem would be 'my manuscript is in my cat's litter box'. This... Think of it as a fuzzy paperweight.
