"It is because so much happens. Too much happens. That’s it. Man performs, engenders, so much more than he can or should have to bear. That’s how he finds that he can bear anything. That’s it. That’s what is so terrible. That he can bear anything, anything."
William Faulkner, from Light in August (Vintage, 1991; first published 1932)

"Oh, the comfort — the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person — having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."
Dinah Maria Mulock Craik, A Life for a Life

Borderline Insanity–Coming Summer 2016

jeffmillerwrites:

It’s finally official … Thomas & Mercer is going to release next  Dagny Gray thriller sometime in Summer 2016.  Look for more updates over the next few months.  I’ll be busy working with editors and cover artists, while trying to finish an outline for book 3.  For those who liked The Bubble Gum Thief, thank you for waiting, and I hope you like this one as much.

Yay!

Way to go, Jeff! I can’t wait to read it!

dirtyflamingos asked: I want Loretta
But she won’t have me
She married a loser
And he makes her happy What's this quote from?

It’s from Joe Purdy’s “Eagle Rock Fire”. 

If you aren’t familiar with Joe Purdy, you should remedy that as he’s basically the best thing since sliced bread, and I love him so much I once dreamed about him.

National Screen Service Corporation lobby cards/photographs are my heart and soul. I had a lot of these as a kid, but only 5 now. The 5 i have are Raiders of the Lost Arik and Temple of Doom related, but I think i maybe wanna start collecting them seriously. Movies are amazing.

If you start, I’ll start. I have one, for The African Queen, that was a gift from my dad. I’m so jealous of your Indiana Jones cards!

A text I just sent. And the God’s honest truth.

“Some people think that kids should be allowed to ‘be kids’ wherever they are, and some people think they should be allowed to as long as they’re out of doors. *I* believe that it’s never too early to teach children how to be respectful members of a civilized society, and that means, for example, that screaming at the top of one’s lungs is fine if you’re miles away from other people, but that screaming at the top of one’s lungs when you’re just outside of other people’s living quarters is unacceptable asshole behavior.”
