- I live in a house people can get lost in. Michael's daughter rambled upstairs this morning, wondering where the guest bathroom was, knowing, at least, there was one upstairs. I could actually be in this house and not know that someone was on the third floor starting a fire or deciding to dig a well. If I were in the garage, aliens could land in the living room, and I'd not know about it ...

- “You now have unlimited storage,” says the message when you check your mail. Does everything not have a limit? I may not have to worry about deleting large files, forwards, links…they can all remain where they are. New ones will come and my space would accommodate all of these.You know something? I don’t like it. Earlier when I’d see that marker saying “You are using 60 per cent of ...

Back then, had someone told me that my first published works would be erotica and erotic romance, I would have scoffed at the thought: Bashful, timid me? Writing sexually explicit scenes? ...

- I just caught Missy chewing one of my favourite bras. Lucky for me and for her I intervened before her deadly razor sharp teeth did any damage. She must have taken it off the bed and carried it downstairs to the privacy of the den. I imagine after tossing it into the air a few times she settled herself down for a nice long chew.

I was asked to do this a little while ago- by a professional astronomer, no less- so, here it is.
Well. Okay. It wasn't a little while ago; it was months. And she didn't so much ask me as she did inspire me to promise, proactively, that I would. She really is an astronomer, though, and that is the crux. She is one of those people who actually does the thing that scribblers like me only ...

- May 31 SPACE I stand behind the podium and talk about the event horizon, which brought me into these rooms. My audience: other unwitting astronauts whose lives, like mine, were deconstructed by the Black Hole of addiction. Though the time and place may be different, the physics of compulsion and allergy are precise and repetitive. Nodding heads affirm my calculations to be accurate ...
