Always, always, always, pay it forward. Strangers have been kind to me and I am happy to help.

Payment sent, and story enjoyed. Especially as I play a lot of villains on City of Heroes/Villains.
Maybe get Uncle Wil to read this and sell it on iTunes for $0.99?

But … and this is a good thing … the whole time I was reading, I was hearing Wil Wheaton’s voice, and what I imagine to be your voice. But it definitely sounded like the conversations WW posts at his blog! Also, I think this means you have to please, please, please do another Cliché edition of Subterranean!

The story feels like something out of an episode of “No Heroics.” :-)

Only you could make me laugh at our impending Doom.

Only problem is they’re not actually FUNNY even when they’re supposed to be…

I sent in a donation. Her “Tales of the Compass Rose” is one of my several favorite stories of all time. Sorry, John, she beats you out. Of course, so did R. Zelazny, so you’re (or she’s) in good company. You do have a z in your name though, so that should be worth something.

Merry Chrishankwanzadan(TM) to you, yours, and Vera.

Regards,
Jack Tingle

Glad to see that money is still coming in, and will update the pimpage on my LJ.
