Summary of an e-mail I just received from a customer: "Your software's user-unfriendly and complicated and kinda shite, but your support staff are ace!" Um, thanks?

Had a minor epiphany/plot bunny about the fantasy novel I'm poking at. Quick poll: would you read a fantasy novel with a knitting (mage) hero and plot that centers on (magical) knitting? (This should go in my writing journal, technically, but meh, too lazy.)

considering that i've read a fantasy novel with a major plot point involving weaving, sure!

What a great email! Even if it dissed the software. Maybe because it dissed the software.

Yes.

Because the symbolism, it burns. But in a good way.

Magical Knitting ?

Will he enter a competition trying to beat Mrs Weasley ?

Oh wait, Mrs. Weasley already is a knitting (witch) hero who beat Mrs. Lestrange alongside Harry and the Dark Lord.

The other knitting hero was Sylvester Stallone in that sci-fi movie with Wesley Snipes : Demolition Man (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106697/). But I liked both so please give me a third :)

Btw, I've got plans for Nano too, I stole them from a 7 year old who's mom took me shopping one day and left me babysitting the kids while she was off trying sexy outfits with her boyfriend [/TMI]

At least I know how to write that part saying who I dedicate the book to. Should give me at least 20 words or so :) 49980 to go !
