Reading Excuses is one year old
« on: December 08, 2009, 08:18:56 AM »
By the way, I'd meant to mention this earlier, but our first anniversary, if you want to call it that, was about this time last week. (As Karl has just reminded me.)

I'd say that we've built ourselves a pretty successful writing group here.

So thank you.

Wow.  I had no idea I had gotten in so early.  I figured y'all had been around a lot longer.

Awesome. Way to stick in there everyone. It's been fun. :)
I've already conquered the world. This is exactly the way I want it.

Happy birthday. Someone ought to bake a cake.

Well, since we're international and thus can't easily share a cake, I vote that we all bake cakes.

I don't know, Silk, postage isn't that expensive. Besides, we all like stale cake, right?

While this is true, if we all baked cake we'd have something even more awesome than stale cake: MORE cake.

Brownies work too.
