Found Matthew Hughes' profile on Facebook. He's a writer working in the Jack Vance tradition, like me. There aren't exactly many - we're like the freaky kids in one corner of the classroom. Sent him a message.
What made me happy today?
- Thread starter big soft moose
- Start date

Okra Winfrey is a lady.
I like the accordion version, I could be wrong but reminds me of the southern parts of Italy like Sicily, they're a bit more chill I think (due to climate and lifestyle? dunno)I'd love to create some tacos in 59 seconds. Heck, even "Weird Al" took longer than that.
But if you want Italian music, "Weird Al" has you covered too.
(Only kidding, of course! But Al's songs made me happy)
Found GRRM's email, and sent him a message. Not expecting a reply though.
I had few jobs where I had to answer emails on the behalf of the company (not individuals though), if they're around they agree to answer, if they're not the email can be forgotten until later time (or never?). I think calls or showing up in person are more effective but not that much if the person sending the email is far away. In my experience if the person is really successful it's important for them to be humble and accessible for communication. I ocassionally feel relieved that I am not (yet? never will be?)
Keep us posted.
She has six toes, not that that disqualifies her, but since this started with lady fingers, there's some phalange related relevance.
Okay, let's hope he reads his e-mails, in the meantime I hope you post more of your writings.
No one has any obligation to respond to fan e-mails or such, but it does their character and image good, I think, if they at least sometimes respond. It keeps them humble when success has otherwise lifted their spirits above the common plight.
I'm not saying one should be contactable all the time.
When I get famous, in a thousand years, I will make sure to visit my fans with my spirit and move objects in their homes when night strikes.
