Writerly Snark

A few things that, while essentially un-rose-coloured in tone, are too amusing not to pass on:

1) Alex Boyd and Jacob Arthur Mooney wrote a Facebook Constitution for Writers, which is pretty funny, and full of good suggestions, though by far the best one (and the summation of the whole constitution is) “Facebook offers you innumerable opportunities to be a passive-aggressive wimp. Don’t overdo it.”

2) Scott sent me this video about crazy people who want to write novels just because they “can write and speak your native language.” Grim, but funny!

Or maybe you’d just like to watch Arcade Fire’s Sprawl II (Mountains beyond Mountains) video? Ok, then.
