highlyeccentricI was wondering why i was stumbling over references to 9/11 all over the internet. And it wasn't until just now that i realised it was yesterday.
I won't go into details of a horror which wasn't really mine. But I will say this: people who normally write chicklit should not turn their considerable emotive writing talents to writing about things like this. God, that was awful. I don't think read anything as moving, even at the time, as Meg Cabot's entry there. And there's something seriously distressing about the same distinctive writing style which is usually my happy-fluffy-escape books describing mass carnage.

IN OTHER NEWS:
Sydney Uni people- I will be delivering a piece of performance poetry tomorrow (thurs) night, for the Hermes 2007 launch. 5 for 5.30, Holme Withdrawing Room. The invite is open- my copy says rsvp to hermes@usu.usyd.edu.au but as there are posters up around campus i doubt that's much of an issue.
So yeah. Just informing you all.
