I can't wait to see if he scraps his Beast piece or not. I'm sure it's already written (he mentioned a deadline Sunday or Monday); he just wanted to know if I'd be fool enough to play the fool for him.

Instead, I threw his poisoned chalice back in his face.

Next time, they will try a more subtle approach, and not send this dork with his bull-in-a-china-shop approach.

Possibly, but I'd be more concerned about "bull." It has a conceivably negative association with certain womyn -- the kind who chomp on stogies and ride big Harleys with lavender trim.

That is still OK as far as I know. However, "chink in the armor" has recently been thrown out for a lack of diversity.

Apparently the #EFAD campaign worked. Congrats Matt. Hope the entire trilogy is on the million seller list by June.
