When I lived in Beijing in the bad ol' 80's, a bunch of us Chinese-American women expats called ourselves the M.S.G. or Macho Sino Girls.  When I drink too much gunpowder tea at night, I have an itch to draw cartoons to amuse myself, signing it--what else. . .

When Authors Go Bad

I once saw a superstar children's author in her 80's so exhausted from signing books, she wore a scowl that stretched down to her knee socks.  Her frown intimidated my friend's daughter so much, the poor child was too scared to get her book personalized.
