My, oh, my.
Emily Gordon at EMDASHES made my day, my week, my month. I'm being added, along with an excellent contributer, to her site that ties in with The New Yorker on a regular basis.
Every site needs it's EEOC required writer, so, she chose me.
I worry I'll jinx myself if I meme, but, this meme... well, I get to keep the fedora, and, I don't have to buy The New Yorker anymore.
The other side is, I have to really write stuff, and it can't just be six sentences or me going on about missing my dog.
Yeah, right.

other places i write
quotes i love
- "I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman." (Anais Nin)
- May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and everyone of us.
- "Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius, and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous, than absolutely boring."
- Fear need not be a tool of realism. I think I'm going to work with it.
- "...a season of love. it is only found in someone else's heart. right now, some one you know is looking for it, and it's in you."
- "to accomplish great things, we must not only act, but, also dream; not only plan, but, also believe." ~anatole frace
- "at night, when the objective world has slunk back into its cavern and left dreamers to their own, there come inspirations and capabilities impossible at any less magical and quiet hour. no one knows whether or not he is a writer unless he has tried writing at night." ~h.p. lovecraft
these? these are important...

YAY! Congrats'!
But, FYI, posts about missing your dog, etc. is exactly why I keep tuning in.
Soon, you'll be the one passing out fedoras--save one for me!
*Climbs over Peter's trampled carcass*
that's MY fedora!!! tee hee
Quin, I do believe I hear the sound of the universe beginning to applaud you for fully embracing who you were always meant to be....a WRITER
Once again your courage and perserverance has inspired me.
Enough mushy stuff-
Yo Bitch- ya done good!
I'm so happy. You deserve this. Congrats!
i wonder if i can buy fedora's by the gross?
I wonder if the reason I'm not making any headway as a writer is that I don't wear a hat.
Headway. Hat.
I swear, it was an accident.
you lie like a rug.
Rugs lie like rugs. Toupee or not toupee.
Quin you know I champion you and how much I believe you deserve this. You go girl X
I don't know what the New Yorker is.
I don't know what EEOC is.
I don't know what meme is.
I DO know that it seems my secret is out (no, not the one about me not knowing much). The one about you and your wit, intelligence and skill with words.
Bugger.
Now I have to find another secret.
PS
I do know what a Fedora is, but look silly in hats.
Oh, Quin!!!!! I am so utterly ecstatic for you!!!!!! This is an amazing opportunity - seize every glorious moment!!! xoxo
Congratulations, Miss Quin!!!
I am so proud of you!
Can't wait to see where this takes you. I told you that you have a talent :).
Congrats, congrats Quin!
p.s. Loved your piece on Neil... :)
