Tuesday evening, feeling like Monday, time for dinner

Got a good bit of writing done today--by hand, no less; about six pages on plain white paper--but of course it wasn't anything I'm actually supposed to be working on. Still, any writing is good writing, I figure, and (slight TMI!) I'm at that point in my cycle when I'm generally more creative. I try to make hay while the sun is shining, is what I'm saying.

To clarify from yesterday: Amazon UK seems to be pairing the hardback M15M with the paperback M15M as a "great deal," and since the paperback has a slightly different title, it's confusing people. I can't tell if they're doing this intentionally or if someone's asleep at the switch over there, but don't fall for this. I mean, unless you just really want a hardback and a paperback.

I'm not commenting on the actual controversy here, except to say that "(Blah) is more important than free speech" always sets off bells with me, but just as an FYI: Warriors for Innocence protesting certain kinds of fanfic on LJ. Communities and personal journals have been suspended. Again, I'm not really interested in holding a referendum on whether you're okay with fanfictional underage/incest/whatever stories; I'm just saying, if you're wondering what happened to certain LJs, or you have controversial material on your own, well... now you know.

(Which reminds me of something my sociology professor wrote on the board one afternoon: "ALCOHOL AWARENESS WEEK. 6-PACK BEER IS 2.99 AT THE GAS STATION ACROSS THE STREET. NOW YOU'RE AWARE.")

scornedsaint: "I was wondering if you could mention the Adrienne Shelly foundation in your next linkspam? Adrienne Shelly was one of the few female directors out there, and if Waitress is any indication, she would have had an amazing future ahead of her had she not been murdered. For any woman who wants to enter the film industry or is just sick of seeing the Best Director nominations read like the membership of Get Rid of Slimy Girls, they should check the foundation's website out."

Whee, I can has spaghetti now! Oh, but one more thing: I have a MySpace that I totally don't use because I loathe the way the site looks, and since author/musician/actor MySpaces are the big thing these days--particularly for people just starting out--I should probably do something with it. What are some good MySpaces in that vein? What kind of things should be on an author's MySpace?
