h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A new arts magazine wants me to write an article for them on Surrealist literature. They want my poetry, too. And they want to pay me. How about that.

Not surprising really.

That sounds like fun.

Yeah, I spent a paranoid couple of days thinking, "who'm I trying to kid? I'm a useless writer," but now that I've started the article, I'm really getting into it. I love Surrealism and I know enough about it not to have to do too much research. I'm doing a how-to type thing on producing one's own Surrealist masterpieces.

This morning, I got sidetracked into using a couple of the techniques to produce my own bits of sublime nonsense. I whiled away a happy couple of hours hacking phrases out of newspapers and rearranging them, and other such activities.

P.S. Thanks for the encouragement, Vix.

congrats
now all you need to do is to submit that excellent entry you wrote to Peer Review

Oh. Er... yeah. You have got a point there.

Not that I'll go on and on and on about it if you don't

I'll do it. I will. Soon.

I just got an email from the editor. It said, "Thank you for meeting the deadline, the article is great."

congrats
I know a writer, I know a writer
I hope you'll continue to talk to us lesser mortals

Thanks, B'cat. You don't consider yourself to be a writer, then, despite all your cool h2g2 articles?

But you already know at least one other (talented) published writer. Don't think I've forgotten about the delectable Kevin Higgins.

Thats well cool, well done!

So whats the magazine called, I would love to look out for it.

Huzzah! Congrats m'dear...

Thank you, my people.

Blows raspberries!

I do too
that reminds me
his first collection is supposed to be published now

Great! And I've got some spare cash. What's it called again?

Of course. The Boy With No Face.
