I cleared up the five bajillion files story files cluttering up my desktop and documents folder and put the ones I actually need to work on into one folder titled "Shite What Needs Fixin'":

1. The Books of Boggs, aka The Ten-Book Scranton-Based Snarkfest Nobody But Me And The Agent-Shaped Person Loves, Damn It And Hmph, It's Okay, Sean Boggs, Have A Cookie And Some Porn.

2. Dead Men In Dark Suits, aka The Twilight For Grown-Ups I Started Writing In College Before I Wrote A Bajillion Fanfics And It Reads Like I Started Writing It In College Before I Wrote A Bajillion Fanfics, My God, This Thing Needs To Be Beaten With Sticks, Oh, Sweet Chocolatey Jesus.

3. Heroine Addiction, aka The Great Big Pile of Yeah, Right, A Plus-Sized Bisexual Biracial Ex-Superheroine, WTF Have You Been Smoking, And See, I Told You Fuckers I Hit 50K And Then Crack Like An Egg Under An Elephant.

4. The Hollow Girl, aka I Read Twilight And Made A List Of Shit That Made Me Want To Throw Rotten Vegetables In The General Direction Of Stephenie Meyer's House And Then I Started A Book That Didn't Have Enough Magical Game Shows Or Gay Superhero Scandals So I Wandered Off The First Time Someone Dangled Shiny Keys In My Direction.

5. Moonlight Hall, aka This One Time Someone Made A Moronic Comment On One Of My Fics About No Books Ever Having Been Written In Present Tense EVER EVER EVER So I Said HA! And Promptly Dashed Off Eighty Thousand Words Of Present-Tense College-Dorm-For-Magic-Folks Bullshit Where Every Chapter Is From A Different Character's First-Person POV And Therefore No One Can Ever Read It But Me, KTHXBI.

6. The Grand Prize Winner, aka I Thought Hey, I Like Game Shows And I Like Wizards, Two Great Tastes Taste Great Together, And Then I Wrote The Whole Thing But Admittedly Fucked Up The Ending And Now It Laughs At Me When I Sleep.

7. Blood Red Carpet, aka Oh, Right, I Started Writing A Story About Meryl Streep Fighting Evil Monsters And Never Finished, I Should Probably Do That One Of These Days.

8. Chapter And Curse, aka I Fell In Love With The Kickass Middle-Aged Hardcase From Nearly Departed But Hated The Story And Oh, Hey, I Liked The Little Girl From Up, She Should Grow Up To Fight Monsters, Too, And There Should Also Be A Bookworm/Sidekick Because I Would Like To Apply For That Position, Now I Just Need To Write The Fucker.

... it's possible I need mental help.

I love, and wish to steal, your ability to cleverly title your stories.

I liked the first few chapters of the Book of Boggs that I read. I actually wondered how that was going a few times.

Also the word Snarkfest makes me do a doubletake because that's my forum home, yo.

Not fair!

Dangling stories that fall exactly into the genre I love best and then not handing over the goods. Its like that stupid dream, Im at the library and get a massive stack of shiny new from all my favorite authors and then I wake the fuck up with NOTHING!
I want to read them all. Even if you are kicking them to the curb, I want them so much!
Most especially Dead Men in Dark Suits.
Please.
