Writer of "extraordinarily wonderful filth... evocative, literary, and playfully subversive from start to finish." Apparently.
"A good enough writer to sell you on things you wouldn't normally be into."
18+ only. Definitely.

Hi, I'm Paragonas Vaunt. You may remember me from such erotic ebooks as Xenofestation, The Oviposition Chronicles and Gothic Follies, smut blended with action, adventure and twisty intrigue. Some are dark, some are humorous, some are darkly humorous, but all are utterly filthy...

The gauntlet has been laid down, billionaires. Get this done.
Rideable miniature railway in the middle of Hyde Park where all the trains are tube trains and it models the tube map exactly.
You have been cursed. You somehow acquired vast wealth and in order to stave off the madness associated with it (and thus use it for good), you have to fund eccentric and ridiculous art prizes.
What kind of thing are you commissioning?

How's my work on the next episode of Xenofestation going? Well, I've just done a 17th draft of The Wrong Bus *and* a 14th revision of Goblin Run instead of getting on with what I'm supposed to be doing.

*Tears up first draft of Xenofestation 5-04*

1975: Harlan Ellison visits Michael Moorcock in London. The Englishman sits Ellison in front of the TV when Dr Who comes on & insists Ellison “be quiet & just watch”. By the late 1970s,Ellison is such a fan of Dr Who that he’s taunting US scifi fans with declarations of its superiority over US fare.

Fun music game.
Take two songs with the same name and post your combined score out of 10. How high can you get?
No covers/no triples (e.g. Power of Love)
My first effort, which i think is hard to beat...
Zombie (Fela Kuti) 10/10
Zombie (The Cranberries) 7/10
Total score: 17

On a related topic, I received a marketing email from an audio-visual company called AVAG the other day, who had unaccountably bought the domain www.useavag.com. This probably made sense to the marketing department at some point.
