― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:15 (twenty years ago)

I just honked down on a chunk of Grano Padano. A yuppie snack? :)

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:25 (twenty years ago)

i don't even know what that is

― haitchaeturist (haitch), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:28 (twenty years ago)

My story is the first installment of something larger, in which our protagonist is tapped on the shoulder by a mysterious figure to take a very lonely, very dangerous job. However, job perks include a prolonged lifespan, the chance to meet interesting people from many different cultures and an excellent knowledge of the most happening places in town.

This strays nowhere near the spy/sci-fi genres. I wanna play around a bit with folklore, superhero tropes and horror cliches.

If anybody knows about the legend of the tzadikkim, I'm drawing inspiration from that. I'm aiming to replicate the kinds of worlds Neil Gaiman has a hand in, without the very english/twee patina.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:28 (twenty years ago)

is that an order?

― shine headlights on me (electricsound), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:42 (twenty years ago)

The man has talent, but he is responsible for a lot of awfulness.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:43 (twenty years ago)

I got a lot of love for American Gods and parts of Sandman, but there is some tripe!

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:46 (twenty years ago)

Stardust is fantastic. American Gods, meh. Neverwhere, awesome.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:47 (twenty years ago)

Oh and Good Omens. Best book evar.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:47 (twenty years ago)

He's good friends with Tori Amos I hear.

― Product of Australia / Kate (papa november), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:48 (twenty years ago)

She was good once.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:49 (twenty years ago)

We agree on Good Omens. I've yet to read Stardust. Yeah, Neverwhere was good. I'm going to read Coraline to my kids.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:50 (twenty years ago)

I'm warming to her. Cait loves her.

Yeah, the man can build a world - that's what I'd like to take from him.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:51 (twenty years ago)

Me too. He's got the knack for black comedy in fantasy. More please.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:54 (twenty years ago)

Well, Anansi Boys will be out soon.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:56 (twenty years ago)

Good. It's been too long between feasts.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 05:58 (twenty years ago)

The boy is in town at the moment, but I am disastrously poor at the moment.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:00 (twenty years ago)

The boy is in town at the moment

Euphemism?

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:00 (twenty years ago)

WHY TWO MOMENTS? MY BRANE!

Neil Gaiman's shortly to arrive in Australia, I believe.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:01 (twenty years ago)

He'll be doing a signing at the State Library on the 18th. I've yet to book. If I'm at work, I might get Cait to take along all 10 Sandman books.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:02 (twenty years ago)

I've got a book of Sandman short stories. He didn't write them.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:04 (twenty years ago)

Heh, I wish I was so successful people would write stories about my characters.

One day, one day.

When I'm well famous on the nerd geek comic lit circuit, there will be a FAP in every ILXor's town I pass through.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:08 (twenty years ago)

We should form our own rat pack.

― Hotman Paris Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:08 (twenty years ago)

Well, if you left the safety of your cave...

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 06:10 (twenty years ago)

I went Gem, I just only talked about the first support.

The Grates were good too though, turned out I knew and sort of liked a whole THREE of their songs. then I queued up for 20 minutes to buy their CD and it was only four tracks in a cardsleeve and cost ten bucks and I was peeved.
