dream big
It's awesome when the a colleague/friend reads your novel and says they "...sent it to their guy in Hollywood." Even if that dream doesn't pan out, it's flattering to know another writer believes in your work on that level. Falcons the film? I can see it rotoscoped in the same style of A Scanner Darkly.

Goodreads gold-ness
I'm happy to see the gold stars adding up. I remember literally receiving a gold star sticker when I was in kindergarten for rhyming fire with wire. It had to do with some visual thinking exercise where we had to know a fence was made of wire. What a proud day. Thank you Sister Julian of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Derry NH. If only you were alive to read about young men in Fallujah.
