Sneaky Boxes--Steven Harper Piziks

At the high school where I teach, anytime a staff member is moving, they send out a notice via e-mail saying, "Don't toss boxes! I'll come get them!"

I was just about to send out one of these missives when a bit of e-mail arrived. It was a teacher saying she was moving in late April and needed boxes. Hey!

I promptly sent out a response explaining that I was moving, too. Then I added:

"The person who gets me the most boxes will win a short but pivotal role in my next novel."

Mwah ha ha ha!

Sneaky you!

So I take it this means you found a house?

[Steven Harper Piziks]

We think so. It's on Cross Street. The offer on our house has to be finalized before we're willing to make an offer of our own. There's details on my own blog at:

under "House Hunting Without a License."

Cool.

So, did Salon publish your letter to the editor about poor, poor Jane Austin Doe? I didn't read the article because I think it would have made me too angry. (Your letter made it clear enough what she was whinning about.)

[Steven Harper Piziks]

No, they didn't publish it. But they did publish letters from Elizabeth Moon and Jane Yolen.

No scheduled open gym. Probably no chiro. Dr. Hamilton will be in the area, and oerffed to come by. I (Jason) just haven't heard from any takers yet. Rob and I talked about maybe going up on Saturday, and if we do, we will post a comment and/or facebook to announce it.
