writing for me has always been hard, and slow

Well, you make it seem effortless on the reader end.

Even Brainpaw ;)

I'm glad you're chipping away and getting back to it.

You're too damn good not to be writing regularly, and I look forward to reading whatever spills out of your head and on to the pages...

Like a paw? from a brain?

really?

Well, it would really be "Brainpa" like "Grandpa," but that isn't wholly accurate.

It wasn't the Brainpaw story (which we call Brainpaw, just 'cause Brainpaw is what Mark and I thought it was before reading anything about it). It was another story entirely, but that doesn't stop Mark and me from talking about "Brainpaw."

But like I said, none of that matters because it's really not Brainpa, Brainpaw, or anything like that.

It was something else entirely, but for the sake of humor (which Deacon probably finds about amusing as Steve saying literature as we know it is dead), it's Brainpaw.

Make sense?

I won't even mention how it all ties into morning radio...

Your brain would explode.

PAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I read Brainpaw. Deacon brought it in a few days after the event.

Even still, your message made no sense, so I'm just pretending it's one of your dreams.

i believe gron is trying to say, when you read Brainpaw, it seems like writing is as natural as breathing to me. almost as if i willed Brainpaw into creation as an afterthought, and Athena like, it sprang from my brain(paw) and onto the page.

its that good.

It's true that few stories leave quite that kind of impact.
