Mona Lisa - Seal
Thanks to Rachel for this tip. John Scalzi (a far more successful writer than I) has an excellent blog post here about why most new novelists are thirtysomethings like me instead of twentysomethings like in most other artistic fields. Go read it now, and then come back soon for more of my irregularly-scheduled blogging (and, quite possibly, more excerpts from Blackout (still hating the title, but whatcha gonna do? (hey look, nested parentheses! It's like I'm using OpenOffice Calc.!))).

That was an interesting read, which kind of means that there is still hope!! :)

This means, for me, that I have 5 to 7 years to get my ass in gear for a book-release date at the age of 37 or 39.
Campbell award, here I come!
