• 02:15:18: @MissMallory2u this one's called "My Favourite Angel" and it's a lovesong from God to fallen Lucifer. Much more interesting than the Stones

• 02:54:40: @lxnmlepapa Penelope Houston's TONGUE Thea Gilmore's HOLDING YOUR HAND and Elvis Costello's astounding I WANT YOU.

• 03:09:10: I'm hesitant to point to this award nomination for fear of bleary looks and justified mutters of "not another". Sorry. http://bit.ly/11r837
  
• 03:11:35: No, I'm not really sure what we'd do with Detroit either. Probably best nobly to end this war before it begins. (We SO coulda taken them.)

• 03:36:58: @SoCalRamen they're both in SMOKE AND MIRRORS. (And in a small press volume called Angels & Visitations.)
  
• 03:40:21: Just learned that the post-event Edinburgh Book Festival signings are open to everyone, ticketed or not.

• 12:05:33: @amandapalmer did I just wake up to find you discussing my hair & whether you can get me into a lycra bodysuit on Twitter? I'm asleep, yes?

• 12:28:02: @amandapalmer My old grandmother used to say, "People who love people don't ask people to wear lycra bodystockings."
  
• 13:40:28: Just spent an hour talking to @amandapalmer on Skype. I may have been talked into things I will regret forever. She's a force of nature.

• 19:05:38: @erikthedane well, being in love with @amandapalmer's definitely no walk in the park. Except when we actually walk in the park, of course.
