I'm on the phone, with my aunt, with the news.
"That's wonderful, sweetheart!" she says.
"Thanks! It's, um, a little earlier than we had planned. For the first time in our lives we're ahead of schedule. By, y'know, three or four years."
"How's Joanne feeling?"
"A little sick. She's doing pretty good."
"Well, congratulations!"
"Thanks!"
And there's a pause.
"So have you guys figured out what keeps causing this?" she asks.
Hi there! My name's GREG KNAUSS and I like to make things.
Some of those things are software (like Romantimatic), Web sites (like the Webby-nominated Metababy and The American People) and stories (for Web sites like Suck and Fray, print magazines like Worth and Macworld, and books like "Things I Learned About My Dad" and "Rainy Day Fun and Games for Toddler and Total Bastard").
My e-mail address is greg@eod.com. I'd love to hear from you!
