If I knew everything about myself, I wouldn't want to be my friend! I think the fun in knowing people is constantly being surprised by them and having them challenge your thoughts or impressions of them. Writers of fiction, especially crime fiction are consumate liars, so if I told you the truth would you believe me?
Thanks for the comment, Otis. About the burdens therapists like your wife and me carry, as a debut author I now have TWO careers about which most people say, "Don't give up your day job!" ;) Liz
No cigs these days, Otis. I quit a year and a half ago, just before my first knee surgery. Just as well, really, since the UK goes fag-free in public places on July 1. Luckily for my resolve, my local pub went smoke-free the same day I did.
I still like to hang with the smokers, though -- never an ex-smoker, just a smoker who isn't doing it today. I plan to resume on my 80th birthday, by which time it will probably be on a par with trying to score a wrap of heroin.
Still beset by evil, itchy blisters augmented by evil, pill given to heal said blisters. One can only hope that by "typing away" that you are writing. Say it's so, O!
We must dance the dance of those who have left their caves!
And use many exclamation points!
Ok, you can eschew the exclamation points. That is a lack of sleep typing.

The barmat drink is called a "Fuck You". After drinking the reason becomes very apparent.
Saw the arc for Jennifer's anthology. Your story is great!
