the Clifton area of Bristol
Yesterday, we spent the day walking around an area of Bristol called Clifton.. It is for really wealthy people. You can see from this enormously huge photo that there are very pointy and dangerous spikes keeping regular people like us from entering Clifton!!
just kidding, of course. Those spikes are an old iron fence by the Clifton Suspension Bridge. another example of my truly unique gifts as a photographer..
Clifton was just lovely. I really enjoyed walking around there yesterday and exploring it. the four of us -- Daryl, Chris, George and me -- pooled all our money together and made a down payment on a really nice 6 story house there just along the Avon river. I will keep you posted as to our new address and when we will be moving in. if you would like to apply for a position on our downstairs housekeeping staff, please email me posthaste.
I would like to formally announce that I have been cordially invited to join the SomethingDark magazine staff in an editor's position type thing and I joyously accepted! I will be scouring the horizons hither and yon for truly cutting edge American fiction and nonfiction writers starting as of right now, so please feel free to email me with suggestions, etc. As you likely know by now, I check out all tips that come my way.
okay. I am off now to get some more work done for my presentation Friday night in London. If you're planning to attend my stuffy boring lecture (oops! Meant to say my enthusiastic upbeat and entertaining lecture) at The Last Tuesday Society this coming Friday night, please be advised that there is a ticket charge. it is a sliding scale, anywhere between 4 to 12 British Pounds. I have no idea how they determine where along that sliding scale you will land. I think it has something to do with whether or not I actually like you, but I'm not positive. If you show up at the door and see me scowling and shaking my head at some tiny woman who then comes scurrying over to you and in a meek, breathless voice says: "That'll be 12 pounds, please," then you'll know for sure the sliding scale is a thinly veiled popularity contest.
That said, I am really looking forward to seeing you Friday night in London, gang!!! Thanks for visiting. See ya.
