I do not have any friends like this. Nor am I a friend like this.

This explains a lot of the holes in my life, I expect.

I bet she’s really nice to all animals, though. Right?

I know a couple of people like this. And one is in roller derby, too! I guess it just takes a certain kind of girl for that…

This post is one of the many reasons why I cannot wait to read your book.

Also, I want to be like Danger when I grow up.

I think I’m in love. With both of you simultaneously.

It’s about time! You WILL mail me a copy on May 2nd as well, won’t you? I remember your promise to let me read your book when it was ready, and for a while it was MY foot in your shapely but skinny (and now undoubtedly beautifully muscular) ass encouraging you on.

I totally like Danger. In fact I may have a girl crush on her.

Funny, I have a friend like this(though she doesn’t roller derby) and her name is Holly. It’s something about those short names that strike fear into the hearts of us all.

Man! Nothing like physical peril to motivate you.

(Also, I’m delighted to see you writing again and I totally meant to comment before now, instead of just pressing up against the glass like some mouthbreathing creep.)

(I think “JoAnne Connor” is available.)

(Not that you’ll be needing a fake name, because YOU ARE DOING THIS.)

(And let the record show that I’m totally ready to back Danger up, because I DID once meet the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (or various actors portraying them), whether or not she believes me (I’M STILL FINDING THAT AUTOGRAPH, DANGER), so I’m no yellow-belly. At least, I’m pretty sure that’s what that means. It could just mean I like turtles that can talk and wield nunchucks.)

(I also like you, and Danger, and books that get published, and puppies and kittens and derby and entire comments comprised of very long parenthetical asides.)
