chris_gerribThree random items, related only by being things I found:
1) The Bookshelf Cafe News interviewed me. My favorite quote from the interview? On being asked, "What advice would you give to a writer working on their first book?" I said, "Finish the book! Many writers start a book and abandon it or get stuck in a revision loop."
2) Here's a miserable dude who seems to want to inflict his misery on others: Meet Matthew from Knoxville! - Matthew, meet the internet!
3) On Syria: Personally I think Assad would look good hanging from a streetlight by a meat hook. Alas, he's now in Russia, hoping that Putin doesn't decide he would look better after being thrown out of a window. I do think his government's collapse in Syria points out to a "feature" of dictatorships - their collapse is gradually, then all at once.
