Nineteen glass onions might not be the hoard of diamonds, rubies, and gold of his dreams. Yet in this age of Apache helicopters and rocket launchers, a dragon had to take what a dragon could get. And like all dragons, he would rather die before giving up his hoard.   des lewis Posted on Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - 12:32 am:    The glass onion thanks you, Byron, for taking part. Nemo 4 is being sent to you following our off-list exchange. Good luck to others in the future on this thread.   des lewis Posted on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 12:29 am:    This is an on-going thread, btw. Plenty of Nemo 4 gagging to be read. And if that's not a blatant bump, then I am a bosomless bosun.   Fred E. Killinger Jr. Posted on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 10:44 am:    I am here and really want Nemo 4. Now who is cruel enough to deny me this pleasure?   des lewis Posted on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 11:27 am:    Well done, Fred, & please claim your prize from bfitzworth@yahoo.co.uk And good luck to others who want to bump for this book in accordance with this thread's rules. des PS Fred (or anyone else), do you want to have a go at the Weirdmonger thread below? You may have to do it in the next few hours, if so! Don't tell Byron I tipped you off. ;-)   Byron Bailey Posted on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 11:38 am:    Nice try des, but no one has the guts to challenge me. No one! Mwahahahahahahaha!   Charles Black Posted on Sunday, July 22, 2007 - 11:35 am:    Des, thought you'd be interested to know I've had some feedback on one of your stories in The Black Book of Horror: "...that pie one made me retch, bloody hell."   des lewis Posted on Sunday, July 22, 2007 - 11:42 am:    Hey, that's good stuff!   des lewis Posted on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 08:09 am:    Bump   Byron Bailey Posted on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 09:51 am:    My _Nemonymous 4_ came in the mail today. Seems unusually fast, less than a week. Looks good to say the least.   Byron Bailey Posted on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 09:56 am:    Okay, a week.   des lewis Posted on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 10:03 am:    And it was sent surface mail! They must have mistaken it for air mail!! :-) I've had a few problems with one or two of my 'surface mail' packages being returned to me saying they have not enough postage for *air* mail (including Byron's Nemo 5) - but I've now cleared that up with the local sorting office. Surface mail usually takes 6 - 8 weeks to USA from UK.   Fred E. Killinger Jr. Posted on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 03:21 pm:    If there is still bumping going on here, then I bump and bump again! Fred   des lewis Posted on Sunday, August 05, 2007 - 08:03 am:    And bump again.   des lewis Posted on Sunday, August 12, 2007 - 03:57 am:    Bump from above. See first post on thread.

I'll have to let a friend know about this thread. He he he.   des lewis Posted on Tuesday, August 14, 2007 - 03:34 am:    Woof woof.   Colleen Andrews Posted on Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - 05:21 am:    bump bump!! Is this like going bump in the night!! Hehehehe   des lewis Posted on Wednesday, August 15, 2007 - 06:16 am:    Well done, Candy. Please claim at the usual email. hohoho!!!   Blue Tyson Posted on Thursday, August 16, 2007 - 06:52 pm:    http://weirdmonger.mindsay.com/slaughtergirl.mws Chrono tours should preferably have peaceful guides of your own species. Or, signing up to be led like messiahs to the cross by an alien shapeshifting nymphette analogue isn't the world's best idea, unless you are seriously masochistic. Said being isn't even particularly good at this, so the whole thing is somewhat amusing. 3.5 out of 5   des lewis Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 01:51 am:    Well done, Blue, but on this thread you need not have done a critique, welcome though it was. :-) Please claim. des   Blue Tyson Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 02:05 am:    Ok, will do. It said you could up the top though, and you have some mindboggling number of them there, so didn't think I would run out!   des lewis Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 02:35 am:    Thanks, Blue. I'd forgotten that! You need not wait 24 hours if one does a critique. But you did a critique *and* waited 24 hours. Very kind of you. des   Blue Tyson Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 02:46 am:    Yep, well 2 for 2 picking stories at random so far. How many of them are long?   des lewis Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 03:23 am:    Some of my stories are long, but most are short ... because I ran out of ink. des   Phillip Stecco Posted on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 05:04 pm:    Mr. Tyson, read carefully. I've discovered Mr. Lewis' exhaustion of visible ink from time to time. And just in the nick of the quill, too! Be advised that Mr. Lewis sometimes continues writing the story at hand in lemon juice...   Grant Wamack Posted on Tuesday, August 21, 2007 - 05:26 pm:    I guess the night wouldn't be the same without a bump.So bump   Ron Breznay Posted on Wednesday, August 22, 2007 - 06:58 pm:    I'm not sure how my time compares to yours, so this may or may be not at least 24 hours since the last post. Ron   des lewis Posted on Thursday, August 23, 2007 - 12:21 am:    Yes, that post counts, Ron!   des lewis Posted on Saturday, August 25, 2007 - 01:21 pm:    Ron's got it coming!   Phillip Stecco Posted on Wednesday, August 29, 2007 - 05:03 pm:    Nemo 4 arrived today in the mail! This is Nemo's "White Album." And a Fab 4 it is! I suspect that the second Nemo up the line will be nicknamed "Number Nine Number Nine Number Nine." I would continue, but I should let it be... Thank you, des! Best wishes, Phil   des lewis Posted on Thursday, August 30, 2007 - 07:19 am:    Hence the Glass Onion.   des lewis Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 09:12 am:    Bump. Crash!   Phillip Stecco Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 03:26 pm:    A friendly, nostalgic bump (with an "r" from another universe)... Brump!   Dflewis Posted on Thursday, September 13, 2007 - 01:18 am:    Nostalgia is indeed the big force in the bumps-for-book campaign. Without being too self-unaware or precious, it is a nostalgia for simple philanthropy and good manners. Meanwhile, I write fiction as a misanthrope (and for misanthropes)!   des lewis Posted on Sunday, September 16, 2007 - 06:24 am:    Free book, free shipping. See above   des lewis Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 02:35 pm:    Bump
