Iron Man

Not really related to my writing other than this: I think this movie is gonna rock, and when I see things that rock they invigorate me, get my juices flowing and make me want to write really cool shit. Just ask my wife. I made her watch this ad (it aired during the Super Bowl, Go Giants!) and hit rewind on the TiVo so many times that I'll always remember that it aired one-hour-and-fourteen-minutes into the broadcast (1:14, 1:14, 1:14, 1:14, 1:14, 1:14). Now all I can think about is men in metal suits kicking ass, and it makes me want to write about them.

As a side note: big shout out to Jaye Wells for landing a sah-weet(!) three-book-deal (read about it in Publisher's Weekly, second item down). Jaye's a great writer, a better person, and I couldn't be happier for her. The first book comes out in 2009, but I happen to know it's worth the wait.
