I've already written a book; its coming out in October on Lulu.com, and it's title And Here's To You. It's about a 42 year old woman and her 21 year old boyfriend. My next project is tentatively titled 'Porters and Fliers, which is about a gangland war style feud between people who can teleport and people who can fly.

I did start a book about my life. Lost the disk and bill didn't have the file anymore from the old hypertales.com. Too lazy to try and start the whole thing over again.

It's actually in the works. I was originally going to have it 49995 words long (1111, 2222,... 9999) but it's only going to be 16665 now (1111, 2222... 5555). I will have to team it with other short stories.

Anyway, back to the question, it's about a man who is not the main character of the story. You can read the first chapter here.

You use Demi Moore and Ashton Kucher as the inspiration. She's 45 and he's 29.

No actually I didn't. I started this project back in 2003, but it wasn't until I found Mur Lafferty's podcast I Should Be Writing & signed up for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) that I finally stopped dicking around and finished it.

If I'd only thought to remember and write down for many years all the hilarious stuff gays say to each other, like at bars, just hanging out, out to eat, etc. -- comedic "put-downs" sorta. Some "queens" are especially good and fast at this (wish I was) and we'd just sit there and listen to 'em -- like maybe one guy sez, "I'm not drinking anymore" and another guy goes, "Well you're not drinkin' any less, either." So if someone'd thought to write all these down it'd make a funny book...

It'd be a memoir; indeed already exists as such. I have quite a few stories to tell. However, in time I hope to write a work of fiction: just writing autobiographical volumes might wear out the patience of my readership...not that I have one to speak of.

It would be about things people shouldn't concern themselves with, and why they shouldn't care.

Hmmm... If I were to write a book, it would be science fiction, a historical piece or an autobiography. Luckily, I'm not much of a writer, so...

Probably about Dark ages. Or I've been thinking of one about society in the future. The Earth has basically gone to hell. The government is corrupt and watches everything. The main character is one of a large group of people who have decided to rebel and are at war with the government. It's kind of Sci-fi.

It would be about...6 inches tall and about 187 pages.

A fiction story, i currently working on a book actually, but i douth it will get publiish it is more for me it about a fictional country where the land is divided in to two by a tall moutain range, everyone living in the west are wealthy sofisticated people wild the east side is all desert and the people are poor and in a state of hunger and drougth , the east people risk their lives to cross the moutains and live in the other side,and once they get their they are treated like crap and the law shows them no justice, sound familiar.

If it were fiction it would be science fiction. If it were non-fiction it would be music.
