I wouldn't mind seeing you post your SFWA paragraph at sfwa.

I appreciate the thought, but I know for a fact I'd get drawn into a debate there. :-) It just seems so simple to me. I don't know why no one else is standing up and saying these things. Like I said: It's so in vogue to bash the organzation. We're such a community of socially awkward people; maybe no one wants to not be part of the cool crowd.

No promises. We'll see. I should go over there and see what's been hapening lately. It's on my flist, but I've been woefully behind.

You could always post, then ignore any debate. Or post in a way that disallows comments.

If you post, I'll give you a nice shiny nickel. :-)

a nice shiny nickel

Perhaps pennies rather than nickels. And there should be smashing involved. Either you, her, the nickel, the pennies, or any combination should be smashed for the transaction.

Hey you! With the smashing! Yeah, I'm looking at you! Stop that! Stop the aiding and abbetting! You want I should risk my neck--nay, my sanity--by posting positively at sfwa? That's crazy talk!

But smashed pennies and nickels might almost--almost--be enough incentive, especially the nickels....

I humbly submit that perhaps you should be smashed while writing the post. :)

We'll get to work on those nickels. I understand Disney might do commemoratives.

Well, that idea has possibilities. Hmmm...

And Disney absolutely does nickel smashing. I have a number of smashed nickels in my collection. (Disney has been one of my specialties for several years now.) Nickels are lovely canvasses for smashed art. But if you've got an in...

You do? You did? ::squee:: Thank you! You find 'em, you send 'em or, better yet, next time you're in Seattle, deliver 'em all personal-like. Be cool to see you after all this time.

You got it! It would be grand to see you, too.

I'm toying with going to the SFWA meet'n'greet thing next week (Midwest is having a sale). You going?
