It's officially British summer. It's time people of all political flavours unite against the country's biggest threat.

I can't get over these writers complaining when their characters 'take over' and 'do things they didn't expect.' Shit. My characters are all clearly lazy m-fers. I WISH they'd do some of the work for me. I have to plot every damned thing myself.

This one deserves further exploration. The over-burdened colleague of the agent asked me to "show [him] what [I'm] working on." I shared an early draft of The Other Eight. It turns out "show me what you're working on" means something polished and marketable. Not, you know, what you're WORKING on.
