You have 1 week to get your Scribe submissions in if you haven't done it yet! So get cracking!
And if you haven't done it yet, head over to Jaime's blog and congratulate her on her shiny new agent! Way to go, Jaime!
Everything Else
So EB's class is studying Shakespeare (specifically, Romeo & Juliet). His teacher challenged the students to come up with the most obscure song/movie/piece of literature that is based on the works of Shakespeare, and the kids who come up with the best ones get some serious extra credit.
Now, I'm not one for doing my kids' homework for them, but I figured with all the writers on my Flist, we ought to be able to come up with some AWESOME stuff those high schoolers would likely never discover on their own and maybe broaden some horizons. If I get a good list, I'll have YB take it in to give to his teacher (after he looks up his OWN obscure reference, of course) so he (the teacher) knows where he should be setting the bar for his kids. Anyone want to play? If so, just leave a response in the comments section. Have fun!
