“Though completely irrelevant to the story, seventeen minutes and thirty-two seconds later, every instance of the word “the” that appeared in this chapter transmogrified into a tiny, blue, pineapple-headed bat that flew away to France to start a brand new life even though they all hated France (except for French fries, guillotines, and that place in France where the naked ladies dance). Regarding the latter, apparently there’s a hole in the wall where tiny, blue, pineapple-headed bats can see it all.”

“King Kranlin became dizzily aware that day was now indiscernible from night, that selfness was essentially the same as otherness, that all things had become nothing, and that nothing had become everything.
“What’s happening to me?” he croaked.
“I shot you with my deconstruction pistol,” King Derridap said. “An invisible différance-bullet has pierced that well-fed belly of yours. You’re deconstructing.”

I just wanted you to know that I get freaky. Like real freaky.
Oh, yes. I DO know a little something about that. But thanks for thinkin' of me, slice.
You likely know all about this. But I figured I'd share this with you, just in case:http://www.kindlepost.com/2013/10/gue...
You and your bronie are making me want to hug something...
Thanks, for the friend-vite. Feel free to browse my shelves (did that sound bad?, Oh, well.) for books ideas or if you just want to be nosy. It's all good. I've got a lendable shelf also. If you see something you'd like to borrow, just let me know.Nikki~
I can now finally join the ebook revolution, as I just acquired a new cell phone that's big enough for me to comfortably read ebooks using the Kindle app.
Cool. My first interview as a writer!And should you have as about as much interest in reading an interview with me as you do in lighting your own genitals on fire, perhaps you might want to check out a picture of the little nub that is all that’s left of the extra finger I was born with on my left hand. Such a picture accompanies the interview (scroll down a little when you're there to see it). Freaky stuff!
