i am still sick. while delirious and somewhat high on the little yellow pills, i attended cy's new book launch at booksactually. managed to take a heap of photos for the day, with pretty nice candid shots i must say. (ego ego) so if u know his site, go see.
mental note to self: if sick or delirious, just shut up and look intelligent rather than embarrass self. sigh. i never learn. :(
cy's new book is so different isn't it?
oh, fyi there's another launch on the 18th of aug. at select.

qlrs is back up with the new issue. it is reassuring to know that it is, at least for oct, gonna carry on. it is interesting to note, that while by now everyone has put arthur yap's passing to the back of their minds, and all literary busybodies (me included/esp) were eagerly anticipating t. hsin min's reply to that newpaper writeup about qlrs, i thought it was pretty cool of him to say something about arthur yap's passing first before dealing with the writeup in a quick, short paragraph. in fact, i blush in shame.
i am in this issue of qlrs, and the latest issue of blackmail press, (sweet how they came out a day apart from each other) and i was gonna head down to the office yesterday mid-afternoon to print my latest attempts at submission for snail-mailing out, but somehow decided against it by not bringing my ibook along. procrastination has somehow gotten the best of me today. but did get some real work work done so am pretty proud of self. :) hee.
tell me something: why do you submit?
i am curious.
