kevin_standlee gets in a good zinger in the Colleen Lindsay wank, and she probably doesn't even get it.

And wank it is. It's no longer the "venom cock" wars, it's the Colleen Lindsay Wank. After going to otf_wank (other-than-fandom wank on journalfen.net) it got migrated to fandom_wank. Comments include luminaries such as Diane Duane.

Oh, and just to get back to the whole thing that started it all, the devil himself, nihilistic_kid, posted a link back to Paperback Writer's blog entry about email exchanges with Jeanine Cross.

The opportunity to have my book promoted by someone who forgets the contents of her own marketing materials ranks on my to-do list somewhere around having said text being translated into Spanish by a first-year student of Russian.

Haven't seen Jim in probably 3-4 years; what with him on the east coast and me in California. He definitely made his mark on Tor parties while he was there, though. Ask him about Madison, squids and a sauna (and that was his first convention outside gaming conventions).

6 months isn't "Quite some time ago" in my book, not when compared with a decade at Tor, or as I said, knowing him since college.

You got a good guy, though. He connects well with pros and fans, and is probably the best liquor-buyer that publisher parties have ever known.

She's got a point, even if it's a nitpicky one. It's not her employer's sampler, it's another company. Still, she says she read the book and initially swore that "venom cock" didn't appear in it.
