What was begun as an online journal of the books I read evolved...or maybe it devolved...to also feature behind the scenes goings-on at All About Romance from my perspective (mostly based on my personal feelings - okay, it's a personal pity party); topics I've gone over ad nauseum in commentary at AAR, including the nature of reviews and online behavior; and my non-cyber life (including family and items in pop culture that capture my interest, which is just about everything).

Please do not violate my trust. I restricted certain AAR-related and personal entries for a reason...to keep them as private as possible. Now that my blog is read-only, to access restricted entries you must already have a password; if you do, hold onto it so that you can continue to read restricted entries.

This blog is not part of All About Romance. I ask that you keep comments or questions regarding restricted blog content off of AAR.

Below you'll find the blogs I visit, broken out in my own odd little system of categories.

Hoopla...Part III

posted Sunday, 19 November 2006
Today I write for the third time about the hysteria surrounding what Anne Stuart said :
  • About what Miss Snark said about what Anne Stuart said;
  • About what other bloggers have written about what Miss Snark said about what Anne Stuart said;
  • About Anne Stuart's publisher's writing about her adoration of Anne Stuart;
  • About speculation over said publisher's writing about her adoration of Anne Stuart;
  • About Jennifer Crusie's writing about what Miss Snark said about what Anne Stuart said - and also about what Anne Stuart said;
  • About another blog entry about what Jennifer Crusie said about what Miss Snark said about what Anne Stuart said, and also about what Anne Stuart said;
  • About the 20 36 comments posted thus far about the above blog entry;
  • About a blog entry about a comment made to Jennifer Crusie's blog entry about what Miss Snark said about what Anne Stuart said (for which there are currently thirteen comments);
  • About a blog entry about the blog entry made about a comment made to Jennifer Crusie's blog entry about what Miss Snark said about what Anne Stuart said.
  • Will the madness never end?

    This is getting to be like Days of Our Lives.

    At any moment, I expect Miss Snark to whip off her mask and reveal that she is, in fact, Anne Stuarts' first agent!! At that point it will be further revealed that Anne is actually suffering from amnesia, which is why she doesn't remember that she wrote a Secret Book with Miss Snark's brother (who died tragically while working for the secret service). If Anne gets her memory back, she'll remember that Mysterious Box in the attic, containing the manuscript of the Secret Book. The book, of course, is the Best Book Evah, and if published will go straight to the top of the NYT bestsellers list - at which point, Snark can reveal her Secret Contract with Anne, giving her a 99.9% of Anne's royalties. Jenny Crusie is, of course, desperate to defeat Snark before Anne gets her memory back - because if that happens she'll realize her Lost Lover didn't die after all! He is, in fact, Bob Mayer!! At least, that's how I see it playing out ... :-)

    eggs.

    It has turned into something of a circus hasn't it? I like what Karen wrote about it at her place. And the Smart Bitches were pretty spot on too.
