corresp. from pdx to the city so nice they named it twice
2 dec. 2006

Dear L___,

Some months or years or aeons back, ie, in an earlier Email I had told you that we were working on a book project, Sinister Wisdom being the title. The book is a cross-cultural 69+language compendium of insults & invective.....

We had to cut from 170 to around 90 to be able to get the book under 300 pages.

You had offered to include the Shit-In-100 languages songspeil from yr recent U__ play.

Well, a funny thing happened on the way to this letter.

Soft Skull books has said yes to the project, for publication next fall.

Also, I'd like to use yr cartoonys for the book, esp. the one where a person is talking to someone who's turned into a pretzel or toroid by shoving their head up their ass/arse. (I forgot the caption, which was funny, but the image makes people laugh before they even read the caption.)
