War Update

I’ve added more blogs to the compatriots list. If you don’t see yourself or have just decided to join, there is still time to e-mail me.
I really need to delegate more duties as I am quite busy (my widescreen TV won’t watch itself, you know). Also, right now, I should be in the middle of writing tomorrow’s In My World™. Anyway, before we can start the full-scale war, we need a really cool banner for the Blogger Alliance. Then, we, Allied bloggers and blog readers can begin our attacks, eventually controlling the growing blogsphere. Soon, our power will rival that of God Himself!
Anyway, one reason I haven’t been busy on the war this weekend is I was trying to finally finish up my novel. I had started the damn thing back in 1997, and it has plagued my mind ever since. I kept stopping, throwing away what I had, and restarting multiple times. This is probably like the 17th version, but I finally finished an entire first draft weighing in at 75,200 words by Microsoft Word’s count. I’ll have to edit it some more, but eventually I’ll try and look for an agent. I think at the same time I’ll see if an agent might be interested in a compilation of my In My World™ posts.
To celebrate finally getting this novel monkey off my back, I’ve decided to be nice to my Enemy and make him a promotional poster for his site:

  1. Congrats!
    As a fellow novelist (unpublished, natch), I know how hard/frustrating/rewarding the accomplishment can be. I’m working on my second book now (or so I tell myself, anyway).
    A word of warning, though: Agents. Suck.
    Don’t let it discourage you, though. If you don’t keep writing, they won’t start buying.

  2. Oh..reread ur post.. umm I think Monkey goes best with a good red, but it really depends on the age..say if you are grilling a young Chimp…a sweet red goes well…a tougher cut of baboon will need to marinate in a white wine,garlic, and rosemary vinergarette.

  3. Join The Allegiance Alliance

    Sorry I got sidetracked… Back to the more pressing matter at hand, the battle against Frank J. Flagg and his forces of evil. More updates and a special IMAO blogroll page will be available this evening. If you’re having trouble…
