Argh... "I love the book..."
So I get this fabulous glowing email from a "fan" about my online novel, he's just going on about it. Then he has to ruin the whole thing for me by making reference to the "Zionist controlled media". :eyes:

I need to rethink my demographic, perhaps. :D

2. At least he had the restraint
to say "Zionist controlled media" instead of "Jew-run media."

I know how you feel, though. I used to be in a band with a name that poked fun at tinfoil hatters, and about a quarter of the people who talked to us after we played just wanted to drool on about UFO references in scripture or other rubbish like that.

3. Man, you don't know the half of it...
...Back in 2002 at the peak of my 9/11 tinfoil-hat fame, I turned down $200, $500, then $1000 to speak at an "event" hosted by that guy who did all the "holocaust didn't happen" stuff a few years back. I won't even talk about the militia newsletter folks who were ticked off I didn't want to let them reprint my stuff. :scared:

Mostly I still hear from progressives, but I gotta tell ya... start talking about faulting the government and boy do the compound-oriented folks appear! :D

4. You know what this book could use?
More Zionists. Yeah, that's what it's missing -- a Zionist controlled media.

I just read the first chapter (even though I found two typos, for which I'm certain that you'll burn in hell). And I've always liked the word "eschewed."

Any more to it?

6. When do I get chapter three?
Edited on Wed Jul-14-04 10:56 PM by Argumentus
Chapter two was better than chapter one. Fiction has always been a good way to get facts across to an otherwise apathetic public.

I, for instance, do not particularly follow 9/11 stuff -- too many whackos, too much information, and too much other BushCo schemes to follow. I'd never heard anything about any missing three minutes (probably a stupid question, but is there really a missing three minutes and two independantly verified seismographs of the event?).

Both typos were in Chapter One -- a "they" instead of "the" and a comma dropped into the middle of the sentence. Well written, though. I was just giving you shit. :evilgrin:

7. Sundays. Actually Friday night this week...
...as I'm off for a weekend in the big city, so I'll be putting it up early. Yeah, there really is missing time and seismographs. But, you know, the Zionists. :D
