What You Interrupted

When you called me the other night and we were screaming about why someone would be CRAZY enough to bother trying to write POETRY or why someone else would be CRAZY enough to bother trying to write FICTION, I was watching my alltime favoritest thing in the whole world, something that is like getting a hit of some serious literary-estrogen girl drug, namely, Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, the original and most important document of all time about alpha males (I mean, do I even have to say the two words, COLIN FIRTH??!!??) and you have no idea how hard it was for me to actually turn it off and talk to you. Which is to say, yes, I'm serious about this project.
