# of course it's shit.

# I didn't know you were writing a book as well
Although I don't see what having sex with minors has to do with the quality of national hoidays in your plot.

# Indeed
Also Mother's Day is shit because I got nothing worthwhile done at all and by the time I got back I wasn't in the mood for writing.

This is going to be the slowest fucking novel ever.

# oh noes!
well really short of finding out where you live and standing over you with a cricket bat forcing youto work and such, theres not a lot i can do to help.
but i'm sure it' going to be a very nice book and that you will get a burst of energy/inpiratin/whatever and sit down and write tons!

# Nay, I already did that.
To give you a pointlessly detailed description, I orginally thought up what could happen at the end of the very last chapter and thought that was a passable idea (I have ideas all the time and obviously I never actually do them).
Then for some reason I ended up sitting down and writing out the story for 14 hours a day for two weeks, with to prior plot or vague idea of where it was going.

Then I went back and looked at it and realised it was clinically unfunny, so i'm having to think up jokes.
I did put a chapter up somewhere....

# It's not on paper
I write on papyrus, using freshly squeezed squid ink.
Actually fuck that, I carve it by hand in stone tablets.
No bollocks to it, I erode the prose into the surface of cliffs across the land.

# No.
I never know what you mean, you're a jibbering mess of rabid confusion and drivel.
