I found this interesting . . .

One of the front-page stories in the New York Times today was about Grand Theft Auto: San Andrea Fault and the new Adults Only rating because of an Easter Egg that allows the character to have sex.

I am sure there are lots of versions of the story on www.news.google.com.

I was also amused that there was a picture of female wrestlers from Central/South America on the front.

Looking for Pennsic help

I am actually headed out to the Mid for a week before Pennsic.

I am looking for someone in the general vicinity of Waltham, who is going out for the second week, say the middle weekend of war.

I would ask this person to stop at my house in Waltham and pick up a box of mail, then get it to me, in Shark Pit, at Pennsic.

There will be compensation.

Thanks,

Liam

My writing adventures

You might not have noticed this, but I tend to be a bit scattered in my . . . oh, look, a ferret . . .

Um, in my writing.

When I am talking about my teachers-as-writers fellowship, and I mention "the book," I mean the project I am doing for the seminar (a year-long seminar), which is focused on community service projects in middle and high schools and on the issues around "mandatory community service." Let's call it "Premier Service" for now.

The science fiction excerpt I posted last week, basically in an attempt to decide whether to write in the first or third person, is "End of the Line." The longest piece I have written (10,000+ during National Novel Writing Month), is either "Waving at Blind Uncle Johnny" or "Sugarfoot and the Dancing Bear." Excerpts of that may appear at some point.

I hope that helped.

Seeking phone numbers

I am terrible about getting telephone numbers into the memory of my phone.

If you want to be in my phone, and you think you're not, send me your number to billtoscano@comcast.net.

Mine is 978 979-0933.

If you are named Jack, Chrystie or Babs, you are at the top of the list that I need.
