books, mountains, vince vaughn

Christ, dear internet, how are we going to get past this great mountain in our relationship? We have travelled far, internet, every stain on the car seats a treasured memory, every scratch on the paint a point where I got a little upset and apologized later. But this isn't something we can get by, internet, this mountain in the middle of the road.

O_o so I'm reading along and then Marina and I'm all like o_O O HAI. I'll... check our your commie pamphlet.

אגב. ייתכן שמישהי מהיומן שלי גרה ונמצאת במערכת יחסים עם מישהי מהיומן שלך. ייתכן.

You are making me all asheamed. All I ever read these days are articles on Psychopharmacology and the represntation of The Other in 16th century Chinese literature. :(

Also I have a question (which you will probably evade because you're an evader), say you've written a short sotry (and I know you have) and you wanna shop it around to places. How... would you go about that?

Yes. I'm certain that reading about the representation of the Other in 16th century chinese literature makes you feel so very stupid. It's a low class genre.

מה, סולטה? שום דבר לא יפתיע אותי.

Is it in hebrew or english this short story? If in English, I think the best place to start is Duotrope, which is a big ol' datebase of magazines, papers, anthologies which would like to buy stories(herein; "markets"). On LJ two useful communities are Specific Markets and Market Finder. So just find the magazine which seems to fit, and send it off. Feel free to email or whatever if you're confused. I am a Wise Old Mentor, right, sure, ok. Someone get me a pin.

It's not about stupidity it's about choice. I only read what's assigned is my point, unlike you, free spirit that you are.

אכן. זה היה מאוד... פריקי. כאילו שהחברה של מישהי ממרילנד שהיכרתי באינטרנט בטעות למעשה מכירה אותך וכל זה.

duuuuuuuuude, y'know?

It is English of course, and um, thankee. I'm gonna check those out tonight and see what/how/if. It's um. Less climactic than I expected it to be, this knowledge. I somehow imagined pearly gates and lute music.

Ok ok wait, final edit, *checks out Duotrope* you mean I can make money for WRITING PORN? O_O Why am I in Uni again?
