# I hope you are aware that your constant accusations
of racism are in fact setting back the Black rights movement by years each time?

You must be very proud of yourself.

You racist!

# Bloody Pacific Islanders are all the same.
Got my camera nicked in Fiji and some Solomon islander stole £200 out of my suitcase.

They just misread Fuji probably....

# Fantastic! :D
How's the book coming along?

# The book is on hold, instead I'm releasing short stories as audio books.
I've recorded the first four. One of them will be available for download very soon (hopefully in the next 24 hours, assuming my new shop software goes live). There'll be two free ones and two paid-for ones available by the end of the month :)

My theory is that it'll be a lot easier to get an agent when I can say 'I've already had 5,000 people downloading my stories'. So... All I need now is to get several thousand people downloading my stories!

Got a story brewing there? Working on, working on that for quite some time? Huh? Yea, talking about that 3 years ago. Been working on that the whole time? Nice little narrative? Beginning, middle, and end? Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends? At the end your main character is richer from the experience?

# The book is written
It could do with a bti of polishing, but finding an agent is always the tricky part, so I figured I'd use what I've got experience with to try and tilt the odds in my favour.

# That is not what a yawn is for
that is what breathing is for. And fish do yawn, everything with a backbone does, except for giraffes (special adaptations to their respiratory system).

Nobody knows what yawning is for really (as in primary function), though there is some evidence supporting the notion that yawning improves vigilance. It might do this by cooling blood going to the brain by drawing cooler air over the larynx which is fully aducted during a yawn: greater surface area and cooling. This might be different for fish, but they do yawn, honest.

There is also the social yawn, but I won't bore you with that :-)
