The esteemed Miss Snark, the Literary Agent shut down her blog a few weeks ago, after a couple of years of operation. Mojo guessed it was inevitable given her own experience with online writing communities. For no matter how much information is out there, there will always be those newbie idiots (no, they are not idiots because they are newbies, Mojo explains with a sigh for the umpteenth time. They were idiots to begin with. But now they are idiots who have whimsically decided their career path is to become a Writer (notice in your awe the capital "W" and the special formatting! Ooooh, next will come the business cards with a totally cool title like "Joe Blow: Wordsmith". Yeah, no one's ever thought of THAT before!), probably due to their ownership of a pencil and their staggering ability to hold it with their opposable thumb...oh, great, where was I? Oh, yeah, newbie idiots) who insist on asking the same questions, over and over again without doing the slightest teeniest tiniest bit of research for themselves.  MORE Mojo! »

Mojo's Back!

Yes, after a much-too-long hiatus, due to an unfortunate freak accident and resultant long-term injury, stress and even more laziness than usual, Mojo has returned to bother the good people of eBay! I will not go into my usual complaints about said injury--my nearly daily whinings are all archived on my blog if you want to feel better about your own life--but the past four months are forever suffused in the glow of prescription painkillers and twice-daily dressings performed by Mojo's patient and long-suffering Favorite Husband. And thanks in part to his skillful nursing (as well as Mojo's determination to continue being obnoxious in this world), Mojo is back and better than ever, so long as you consider a totally-cool scar to somehow make her "better".  MORE Mojo! »

As Mojo might have mentioned once or twice in this blog, she was rather severely injured and now has this totally cool scar running down the back of her arm and shoulder blade. It still looks pretty nasty, and Mojo has no idea how it will ultimately look.

Mojo is well aware she will not be winning any bathing suit contests anymore. In fact she has described her scar as something that will give small children nightmares. So she decided, in the interest of child abuse, to put that theory to the test. (Actually it was more of a "whoopsie" sort of thing, but in Mojo's new role as child-scaring horror movie star she prefers to be thought of as an abuser. Sad, huh?)  MORE Mojo! »
