From an outsider's perspective, he's simply the best.

And people have looking in it for gay subtext pretty much a day after it was written.

I'm imagining PM Ford.
As well as the fact Quebec is much stronger, politically, in EH and they're known for being Alexander Horn-like beings.
The stereotype of Canada is going to change very quickly.

Posted: Sun Nov 17, 2013 11:59 amPosted: Sun Nov 17, 2013 11:59 amI remember when I lived in Ancient Rome.
On the tenth day of my visit to the city (I was only a guest of the Emperor's at the time; my real home was in Ireland), the Emperor allowed me to borrow his horse and chariot. I rode around the city, trampling anything in my way - from fruit stands to beggars - until I had accidentally killed a priest.
The priest was a worshipper of Mars or something - not that I gave a fuck. But all of the other followers seemed to give fucks; I realised this when they broke through the windows of the guest palace and tried to rape me with their gladii. Luckily, I had assembled a harem of Rome's best women that night, so they had trouble finding me. I managed to confiscate a dress and wig, and was let out with the girls. For the next three days, I wandered Rome's poor districts; I would have left sooner, if I hadn't stumbled upon the rare cactus juices in the market.

there is one pretty humbling circumstance I have no choice but to acknowledge: that the biggest existential challenge that I currently face as a novelist comes from a website that started life as a place for people to talk about whether Buffy should really have got together with Spike.

Look at, say, your novel - I'm sure the plot's been told, but has it been told in India?
Those who say that art has nowhere left to go simply can't think of anywhere new.

I cite one of my favourite books - The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. Or, in other words, a massive stash of admitted plagiarism. And it's quite fantastic.
The fifth book has the characters fighting robots with lightsabers - and they flat out call them lightsabers. He also openly admits the plot of that was ripped off The Magnificent Seven.
It works perfectly.

And then, of course, if you feel so inclined, there's always postmodernism.

Posted: Sun Nov 17, 2013 12:13 pmPosted: Sun Nov 17, 2013 12:14 pmReally people, read The Dark Tower series and some of King's tie-in works. It's utterly incredible stuff.
Or, if you want, hold off because I've been gleefully ripping off things from that series for the last two years and I'd like to keep doing it without your knowledge.

Posted: Sun Nov 17, 2013 12:38 pmPosted: Sun Nov 17, 2013 12:48 pmAt a friend's house one night, I played one of the Dragon Age games for fun. Everybody loved it; I was "Cock McPower Hawke", the most dickish rogue in the world.
I've brought Cock McPower Hawke to Skyrim, since the two are close enough.

Which leads me to wonder what Crowley was doing at the time. I then stop wondering so as to prevent emotional damage.
