Chloe's first story!

I let my little hamster ([livejournal.com profile] chloe_hamster) run around on the computer table tonight, and she ended up going straight for the laptop keyboard. Being a good daddy, I encouraged her creativity as she tried her hand at writing. Behold! A screenshot of her first short story:


I'm so proud of my baby!

Freakin' hilarious, buddy. Rachel (new roommate) just heard the - soon to be published, certainly - audio form of this :)

Ah, but the question is: How did you pronounce it?

I treated that last part, sugarpie, like a moment of coffeehouse silence with a Beat poetry reading group.

Girl looks forward medatatively, not quite at the floor, but not up either. Her right arm is extended, her palm flat, its face to the crowd, the waiting crowd.

[Wait, beat beat beat]

Her arm drops. The audience, singular figure, snaps her fingers, a hip laudation for the cat "literati"

Cool.

But she's not sure about the whole "cat" thing - Tatsuko looks a little scary to her sometimes.

OH, DEAR GOD! Your icon distracted me, I swear :)

I meant, claro que si, the "HIP HAMSTER LITERATI"!!!!!

One million apologies.
