Since I am going to be away for the forseeable future, I have decided to present my standpoints on the issues clearly here for visitors to the blog. The title was a toss-up between the chosen one and ‘Laurelin 101′. The latter made me sound too much like a mixture between a undergraduate course and the terrifying room from Orwell’s 1984, so I chose the other. After all, if Foucault, Darwin and them lot get their own ‘Readers’ published, why should I not have mine? 
The major difference is, of course, that they didn’t compile their own…
So whether you’re here because you know how great I am, or because one of my detractors has pointed you here to show how evil I am, hello!

They are also dead, you are not.

I’m sorry, but I am not getting your point.

I think she means that once you are a famous writer and dead, other people will compile your collections for you. If you’re still alive (and in my case, distinctly un-famous) you have to do it yourself.

Oh…..of course! I really need to stop posting when I’m severely sleep deprived!
