    You’re going to have to get them to reschedule.. they should’ve know that overlaps with the 2nd Annual Eat Meat with Pete outing.

  3. Dez says:

    Isn’t that in association with P.E.T.A.? (People who Eat Tasty Animals)

  4. badfun says:

    Congratz?

  5. Shawn Powers says:

    In the words of Bill & Ted, “Excellent!”

  6. JW Johnson says:

    That is too fuckin cool. Yes. I think it deserves an expletive remark.
    *wyldman kneels in subjective awe*

  7. Matt says:

    Awesome! Congratulations!

    I almost got accepted, but they said “The Shades of Beer Spit” isn’t a literary work…

    elitist pompous assholes.

  9. Tania says:

    Yay! W0ot!1! Go Pete! Hurrah Huzzah!!

  10. StAtiC says:

    May your proverbial pen plunge deep into the minds of your sci-fi peers. We all know that you have the “CHOPS!”, go and show them what you are made of!

  11. Foxbat says:

    Hmmm…

    Option 1: Eat Meat with Pete. Guys w/ Guns eating all sorts of animals out in the wilderness…

    OR

    Option 2: Go to Martha’s Vineyard for a Writing Workshop. You sit around with a bunch of intellectuals eating cucumber sandwiches and trying to buff up your writing skills…

  12. Dez says:

    Ah, but Foxbat, remember… the pen is mightier than the sw– ahem, the M16A2 service rifle… except in combat. At that point even a pointed stick is better than a pen.

    Pete is learning the arts of war in two ways now… his Kung Fu is strong… and getting stronger.

    Congrats, Pete.

  13. durmiun/jason says:

    Wow, man, congrats!!

  14. Pete says:

    Thanks, guys.

    Whew.

    I never, ever dreamed that I would get in. Everything that I’ve read about this workshop tells me that it is the “bee’s knees.”

    On a lighter note, it looks like Eat Meat with Pete will be bumped a couple of weekends (into cooler weather, yay) to accomodate it.
