I've created a feed for my website and it's  http://syndicated.livejournal.com/erasteswebsite/  I often post different stuff over there, a bit more serious than here, in case you want both sites.

BUGGER!!!!!! My microwave just died. Filling the house with acrid smoke. Very unpleasant.  This is a pain in the arse as I don't cook. I nuke. Looks like healthy kebab tonight, then! 

Happy birthday, [livejournal.com profile] themostepotente [livejournal.com profile] melange1 and [livejournal.com profile] catherineldf!

I just had an email from a Padriag Fleury. *boggles* He is sure he's the only man in the world with his name (I'm sure he is!) and wanted to know how I came up with the name!  Amazing.  I had actually taken the surname from a show called The Irish RM and the first name from a gorgeous man I used to date when I lived in Ireland.

I'm now dreading emails from an Ambrose Standish and a Rafe Goshawk.

It's rather scary, isn't it?

OMG that must have been a totally surreal experience for the both of you. Cool. :)

My condolences on the loss of the microwave. At least yours went out with a bang instead of dying sneakily like mine did. The plate revolved properly, the light were on, it even made the right noises. Just didn't heat anything.

I'm giggling at your microwave being really sneaky

"i'm workin' i'm workin' i'm working!!!"

Isn't that kind of awesome? :D

Bah on your microwave dying, though. :(

It was very awesome!

The house still stinks of the electrical smoke.

I'd be kind of thrilled and scared if anyone with the name of one of my characters ever contacted me.

Sorry to hear of the passing of your microwave.

RIP for your microwave :'(

I'm dreaming of exchanging indecent emails with Rafe...

Off Topic. Have you ever noticed how "erastes" is typed only by left hand?

1. thanks!

2 oh me too!

3. yes. me-lazy writer. Easier to hug a cat and type with one hand.

I wondered if Fleury was at all related (by name) to Mr.Florence McCarthy Knox. I had such a crush on him when I was little :)

*LAUGHS* I wonder that too! Nice to know it's not just me remembers the show!

Fleury relates to wine too. Your subconscious mind knew that tho, ;)

It didn't! *goes to look it up*

Yes, but -- did he like your book, that's the main thing! (I hope he's pleased at having a story to himself, too...)

I don't know! I don't even know if he read it or whether a friend pointed it out to him. Fascinating!

I hope so too. "Thou shalt not write about me" would be a bit worrying.

I'll have to say, Padriag Fleury? That could only happen to you. I name my guys things like Alex Sanchez, and you can't swing a dead... um... You can hardly walk around here without bumping into one of those. I have a Michael Truax. Probably a bunch of those too... See me... see me wind up in court.

I know!! How unlikely was that? And even more unlikely that he found my book - I believe he's from Australia!

Typical. John Smiths only for me from now on!

Sorry about the microwave. Mine works but my kids like to play popcorn 'chicken' (should I wait one more pop, or stop) with the timer and our house always smells like popcorn burning.

You write John Smiths and you'll never clear your inbox.

Unlikely that he found your book? Not really. Come on, everybody googles their own name sometime just to see what's out there.

But then it's also interesting to run the names of your characters through google to see what you come up with. It turns out that my "Ethan Keller" is a rock musician - perhaps not a very famous one, but still.

[livejournal.com profile] violetisblue had to friendslock her smutty online novel after getting a nasty note from a lawyer with the same name as the protagonist.

All I had to deal with was a Dalrymple family genealogy site rather surprisingly pirating Victim/Victorian at one point.
