Guess I've probably missed some of these.
I really put this up because I have some people I'm going to invite to read my stuff. Most of the Gatherites have seen them - or most of them...
I've taken most of my stuff down. I know I haven't read a lot of this but I'm gonna...
I've read a lot of it and can vouch for its entertainment, excellence, and all around someotherwordthatstartswithE.
You really are one of my absolute favourite writers on Gather, Sarah!
I've missed a lot! That's what I get for not playing catch up when I can't be here for a day or so. This will be a good reference for the next rainy day, when I can't get outside and it's sunny in the rest of the country and nobody else is here to play with and I'm bored and no one is available to text and I don't feel like writing because that happens a lot lately and I've finally done my CEUs and don't have any excuses to keep me from looking for an opportunity to entertain myself.
Also, this is a good idea as a way of directing people to your best stuff. I think I'll do it on my blog.
I will earmark these and while I am away on vacation I will peruse your writings. We are headed to New Jersey for a couple of weeks and I hope to have some free time.
Wow, you've been a busy bee!!!
oh I have to catch up this weekend....
Quite a substantial list.
Substantive as well as substantial, Bill.
Thanks for this handy bibliography, which will be of invaluable assistance to future scholars of your work. I printed out the string theory haiku for my files.
