Good luck with that; more competent UF is always good. Gotta keep holding up the 10%, right?

I know, and it was a bitch to get an Amazon page up because of that. I wanted to use my maiden name, but that's a can of worms I don't want to open today.
C.J. Texas sounds funny in a "its recognizable but kinda weird" kind of way. Anyway, may your efforts pay off, show off your published work when you get it =D

C.J. Texas huh? XD Sorry, I can't help but find it a bit funny as well. ^^" Anyways, like pretty much everyone else is saying, good luck with your romance novel! Like you yourself said though, you're quite wonderful at writing porn and romance, so hopefully everything should go well for you.

Good Luck Elf, I hope everything goes well
... C.J. Texas? XD Oh lol. I'm sorry I cannot help but laugh there. But hey, here's hoping you can make this one work!
B.J. Texas would be even more perfect, since it's a great porn name. And, of course, good luck, Elf!
There's a reason why C.J. Texas. It has something to do with my father's family name.
Hey, as long as you enjoy writing it then there's nothing stopping you, break a leg Madame Elf. My only beef is your pen name, C.J. Texas sounds more like a beer guzzling redneck than a romance novel writer. But at the end of the day it's your choice.
follows Whedon's advice about "Han-ing" up the new movies. Because every good hero needs a rogue to balance him/her out and keep him/her on the straight and narrow. Oooh, careful, he might just go overboard and make the new sequel all dark and gritty with black spandex and gore and fanservice and obligatory sex scene etc I mean, not that those couldn't work, but most of the time Hollywood does that...it didn't.

LOOOOOOOOOL no. Your nerd rage is fail rage. "A young Jedi named Darth Vader--who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil--helped the Empire hunt down the Jedi Knights." In the Original Trilogy Leia tells Luke she remembers her mother and that she was very sad and beautiful. If Padme died right after giving birth, how the fuck would Leia remember her? "Just images really, feelings." You telling me that doesn't make sense? I still have vague recollections of my birth mother, whom I only would have met in the hospital. Even if they're just facsimiles of my mind, that's how I'd describe it. Images, feelings, nothing concrete, nothing that I couldn't have just made up or could just as easily actually be real. So, anything else you're mistaken on?
George Lucas not obsessed with his own canon!? I am shocked, amazed, speechless trully one of the most unexpected things in the world.
Remember how Yoda was an unparalleled jedi master who didn't need to do anything as crass as swing a lightsaber around because he could just do whatever he wanted with his mind power alone? Remember how the whole point of him was to show that you didn't need to be a great warrior to master the force? How is it that like, 19 years prior he wasn't slow, old, and on death's door... and just preferred to backflip lightsaber spin with the rest of them? :(

Not crying, dunno why that's a direct contradiction (Also she died of strangulation, Polis Massa droids had no experience with human physiology).
