Why Am I In This Handbasket?

"If you plan on going on an epic quest, there are some things to look out for. The first one is a crazy person with magic powers, who appears out of nowhere and seems to be a nutter." Jacob at Television Without Pity

New Writers (Please)

Or more stuff found by digging around in Neil Gaiman's archives

"Have you ever noticed that your writers have changed? Semi-serious question. You'll spend six months in a romantic comedy, then you turn around one day and you're in a ghost story or a medical thriller, or you spend a year in a kitchen sink, grittily realistic drama and then, without warning, your life turns into a sitcom... It's always sudden. It often happens with a bang. Ah, I think, when that happens to me. New writers... "

This makes a scary amount of sense. In fact it is the one explanation I've found as to why life is so insane that fits all variables.

Now, I'd like to make a formal request to the Publisher that the angst obsessed wacko who has been scripting my life for the last few years be fired immediately and someone like Kat Martin be brought in to fill the position.
