asking us is a very bad sign. you will need to know at least two people who are already members who will write a letter for you. add to that, jobs in media are much prefered. [ Reply | More

He's a writer. Oh well, we aren't joining anyway - funny they should think we have that kind of money (I assume it's very expensive). [ Reply | More

Novelist. The pool sounds great and all, but I can't imagine spending $10-15k a year to be able to use a summer pool. [ Reply | More

:) I will. But right now he's all stressed out that his next book won't sell well and his career will be over. I think this time between proofreading and actual release is such a freaking stressful time. Yesterday, he was all psyched because a very famous author is going to give him a blurb for the back cover. Today he woke up certain the book stinks and he's a hack. He's not a drama queen in general, I just think the waiting gets to him. [ Reply | More
