Viable Paradise

We interrupt our dissection of bad movies to bring you this announcement: I've been accepted to Viable Paradise! This is a fantastic opportunity to tap into the wisdom of some awesome, well-respected writers and editors in the SF field, and meet 23 other fresh new faces. So I am totally stoked. According to my careful study of the traffic on the Viable Paradise mailing list, the accepted exclamation of excitement over one's acceptance is apparently, "squee!" However, cautious little ol' me, I'm going to stick with the traditional exclamation of my people,[1] "w00t!" That's just how I roll.

1. By which I mean "video gamers" rather than "Jews", of course. Are Ashkenazic Jews even allowed to have happy exclamations?

  3. Oh, sure... just sayin', "mazel tov" would probably be greatly outnumbered by "oy veh", wouldn't it?

Are you a spammer? (REQUIRED — you must select "No" to post.)

NOTE: For mysterious reasons, comment posting is extremely slow right now. It can take from 30-60 seconds after you hit "Submit" for your comment to post. However, your comment will go through; you shouldn't need to click the button again.

Comment Syntax

The basics:

  • For a new paragraph, enter two carriage returns.
  • Plain URLs such as http://www.yahoo.com automatically become links.
  • The system encodes all angle brackets and ampersands. For example, if you try to enter a HTML paragraph, the system displays the open tag literally as "<p>".
