I was hoping for a sestina, but a sonnet will do.

Day one of Stumptown was a total success!

Our table
(JP2 was for Kate Beaton.)


The wookiee book is going well, with a nice mix of AWESOME and OKAY. I tried to coax a little boy into drawing me a wookiee, and he was all sheepish that I was talking to him... His dad just pulled him away and said "JAKE. DOESN'T. DRAW." Jake, I'm sorry daddy's a jerk, okay?

I spent half the day at the table and wrote about thirty limericks without getting too much of a brain cramp. Tomorrow, I'll spend the whole day at the table---we'll see how my brain fairs... Apparently, while I was gone, someone offered to trade me a sonnet for a limerick. This is like trading a Big Mac for some ribeye. Needless to say, I am hoping she'll come back tomorrow.

Yay! I am glad you are having fun, and am extremely jealous of all the cool people who get to draw in your wookie book!

If she doesn't, I will totally write you a sonnet in exchange for a limerick!

Sestinas make me want to hemorrhage, though. Nnh.

Camille was very happy with her naughty limerick. I think she is going to keep it in her wallet until she dies.

I can't help but wonder if Jake suffered some art-related tragedy. "Everything was going fine until the incident...Jake's artwork flew out of his hands. Despite his grappling, he could not retrieve it, and the wind was so heavy that day...they later found the minister, just leaving church, dead from severe paper cuts. And ever since then...Jake doesn't draw."

The rhyme (if you can call it that) scheme in sestinas always messes me up.

If you give me a topic, I'll do my best to write you one.

It was so nice to meet you! I brought JPII home and my roommates burst into joyous laughter and he is proudly on display on top of the microwave. I got really sick and forgot to come back for my limerick! nooooo
