"When everyone you need, they all seem to be asleep."

I've taken enough meds tonight to put a very large rhinoceros to sleep...and here I am awake, hoping I can sleep a little before noon. But also knowing I'm not sleeping for fear of dreams

someone who posted a five-star review on Amazon.com, but found 7/7/7 annoying, which, very sadly, means they missed the point completely, as 7/7/7 is the heart of the novel

And one of the strongest chapters on its own. It has to be one of my favorite parts, now that I have finished.

memories of the nightmare of high school that come rising back as if they occurred yesterday
As we are the same age (more or less), I find myself undergoing a variation of the same experience and I wonder if that is a factor of our chronology. I have recurring dreams of high school which are so vivid and intense they could be considered nightmare, save that they're merely tedious.

I ponder analogous things usually at what should be a relatively delightful time, when I have awakened on a morning that I can stay home and am trying but failing to fall back to sleep.

Yeah, You are Right

Established authors can melt down in public. We tadpoles can't, but if we do, we suffer.

Go ahead, kick me in the fucking jaw for saying so. And melt down if you need to. We all need to even in public.

I just finished "Drowning Girl." Your words fucked me up for days. Yeah, your book was one of those "need to read" books.

There was one item on page 274 that freaked me out. I fear I don't understand or I do but I might be wrong which might not matter.

No matter what, you supplied a brilliant read.
