Alec: can I interview you? For your blog?
Meghan: yess!!
Alec: ok good. when do you want to start?
Meghan: umm is that the first question?
Alec: Very astute. You passed the first test. When did you start writing?
Meghan: I started writing stories in elementary school and would read them aloud to my parents. My first novel was at 11. 100 handwritten loose leaf page 2222222222222222223
Alec: When did you first write a story that didn’t make the reader want to kill themselves?
Meghan: sorry, Bucket (the kitten) is on the lose. I think high school. I don’t know I might still be waiting for that… mayb1e that ma222222222ns 23. I guess it happened at 23=-
Now lola (the other kitten) is here. she just sat ON the computer
did i tell you she ripped off the “escape” key lasT WEEK?
dddddddddddddddddddds
and bucket is here too thats him
Alec: woooowwww
Meghan: omg. kitties are too much
Alec: i love them
Meghan: one is always too interested in the comp. Lola’s asleep
Alec: aw
Meghan: but Bucket’s all over it
Alec: cutie pie
Meghan: ok next question
Alec: i vomit when I realize I’m going to die alone. Are you a better writer when you are content or when you’re miserable?
Meghan: generally no. Although if i’m feeling crazy and happen to be writing something about going crazy, that certainly helps. But, on the whole, if I’m pretty happy with my life it helps me concentrate.  I don’t think you’ll die alone, sounds like things are going well with ____
Alec: It was a reference to little kittens (a video by Alec’s sketch group “The Outside Joke”)
“im gonna die alone” (and I vomit)
Meghan: oh, which i put on my status update btw
Alec: ow owww!
Meghan: so i’m starting an “interview” tab on my blog. I’ll tell u when to look
Alec: Good, would you ever write porn if they money was good?
Meghan: yes i have a few ideas. Oh also, you have to ask me a question about my childhood so it goes with the theme of the blog
Alec: sure. you write a lot about your childhood – is it hard to remember the way your younger, naive, less world weary self thought? Can you get back into that frame of mind?
Meghan: well if you read the FAQ’s #1 you’ll see the beginning of the answer to that question.. it’s not hard to remember how i felt about things… what’s hard is putting it into a context that’s readable… i don’t think that really answers your question or makes any sense.
Alec: no, it makes sense
Meghan: thanks. Ok look at the page
Alec: k
Meghan: oh i should probably put it in 3rd person cause everthing else is
Alec: nice!
Meghan: see all the other links i did?
Alec: AWWEEESSSOOOMMMEEE
