I write things in my head and then I don't write them down and then they get lost. It is a bad habit, but I know where it derives from: if you write something down you make it real, and also if you write something down other people will ridicule it! Clearly. I don't know when this habit emerged but I'm guessing "from continually being surrounded by ( Read more... )

So many questions.

1. Why wasn't I invited?

2. Will there be photographic evidence of Doug?

3. Not a question, but a request - pls read something by Cameron, Farage, Trump etc next. It may be hard for you, but you have to take one for the team here!

Also, remind me to tell you what Ray said next time I see you.

i read "book plot/outline" as "book poutine", which doesn't make any sense but does sound kind of tasty. i mean, you know, poutine.

go see legend and report back! i need to know how well tom hardy played against tom hardy. i want to see it anyway but i kind of want to know what i'm getting into (aside from a double dose of mr hardy) before i get into it.

i have missed BOTH issues of the rivers of london comic and am ANNOYED. i just hope it comes out in a trade when it's done, so i can read it. i love that your waitress was all excited by you reading COMICS, and that you seem to have successfully pimped the rivers of london at her.

It is pretty much at the book poutine stage at the moment, a big tasty layered mess with no coherence.

I WILL DO THIS THING. My report may consist of howling, but I will do this thing.

That's fascinating about the ecstatic seizures. I'm really interested in neurological stuff because I have some very minor and harmless weirdness (pretty much permanent visual snow and the kind of closed-eye hallucinations that most people apparently can't achieve without drugs), so I'm always "Ooh, what other tricks can the brain do!" And knowing what's going on means you don't ascribe the wrong meaning to it.

I hope you do more poetry. I love your work.

I get closed-eye hallucinations too! They're apparently more common than we originally believed. I do recommend the book - it's called "Hallucinations", in fact... I have a non-locked Kindle version if you'd like me to email it to you. I'm slightly scared by the persistence of, for example, some people's musical hallucinations, and comforted by the apparent normality of my own experiences - they're categorisable as hallucinogenic TYPES, as well as the ecstatic seizures.

Maybe. I hope. I will have some ... emotional space to write in.

That sounds really cool and interesting! I definitely want to read it.

I hope so too.
