NancySpringer #blort Censorship can affect you as a writer, causing you to pull your punches. Please don’t let this happen. Don’t internalize stupidity
Thx for helping me work on the gallery @NoddlaNocdar. The word SPAM is moderator script boilerplate I can’t edit yet. Nothing personal! :-)
Halloween Haiku Caption Contest still going strong: http://bit.ly/b8waDJ
@NoodlaNocdar Got the new haiku entry (will fix)… I’ll make some changes to ease entry blockade, but I’ll keep the moderating function on.
@horrorbooks I share your feeling…the preview shots I’ve seen have some pretty sharp zombie effects lined up for #TheWalkingDead.
@NicolePeeler Every day is Halloween! :-) I have a similar agenda today…writing, working, grading papers…then scary movie time.
Holy Moly! Get a Gig of ‘The 99 Darkest Pieces of Classical Music’ for just $1.99 today @amazon http://amzn.to/9RxK1Z [Thx @johnrplatt!]
@NickCato — Two scary movies already this morning? That is impressive. Happy Halloween!
I’m totally with you, @WrathJW. I’m so tired of being disappointed by recent horror remakes and adaptation. #TheWalkingDead has potential!
@NoddlaNocdar Check it now…the site puts the entries on hold till I review and clear them as R-rated or below. :-) NICE HAIKU, btw! Thx!
Q. Who will you be on Halloween? A: I’m going as the Naked Invisible Man…bandage-free. You won’t see me after you open your door.
