"Captain, iceberg ahead!" "Excellent, I'm in the mood for cocktails on ice!"

When contemplating the AFTER HOURS project, it occurs to me that jpsorrow and my greatest assets are our boundless ignorance and optimism.

A sample exchange from the editorial board:

Joshua: Anthologies are fun, I want to sell more!

Patricia: I've got lots of ideas on how to market this-- let's advertise via beer fans! Let's do signings at microbreweries and wine tastings!

Guardian angel: Um, shouldn't you be thinking about confirming the authors list and making sure everyone writes the best stories they can?

Joshua&Patricia: Pfffft!


In all seriousness, though, I think we make a good team. Joshua is the dreamer, while I'm the OCD-organizing type, so between the two of us, we've got it covered.

Pub crawl! Pub crawl!

My first antho, I did that (two guesses which I was and the first guess doesn't count). Second antho we were both detail-cachers, and it was the simplest project I've ever worked on. So I decded to quit while I was ahead. *grin*

And the only problem with the scavenger hunt pub crawl is that it requires the authors to remain (relatively) sober, and there's just no fun in that!

I second the beer. Hell, if the timing is right, I'd fly out to promote with beer. (Good beer. Not that B*dw**s*r stuff you have over there.)
