“I might agree to the bailout if there were a porn shortage, if maybe Grils Gone Wild had gone bankrupt because girls were no longer going wild. If they bail anyone out, it should be the girls dancing naked on the net to ‘put themselves through college’... a $5 billion scholarship for wayward girls.”

Ned Vizzini sent out an mass update about his life, progress, etc. He notes:

“Sixth, in 2008, I finished the first draft of my new book. It was 584 pages long and cost a lot of money to print at Staples. (The first time I printed it, I forgot to put in page numbers. Do not try and edit a 584-page manuscript without page numbers.) It is being polished like a diamond and I will turn it in to my agent by my birthday, April 4th, 2008.”

Well, I’m looking forward to reading all….584….584?? pages of it. Ned’s other books were fabulous, straddling the line between adult and young adult fiction. You can read about him at www.nedvizzini.com.

That's all, folks!
