This mark Twain guy, he was a publisher's devil, you say?

First, Lynn Veihl's take on Ambrose Bierce's Devil's Dictionary for the publishing world from an author's perspective.

And Theresa Nielsen Hayden's response.

I loved Bierce's work in the 8th grade, so this was the perfect reading over the weekend as I prepare for classes.

Note to self: Make sure to direct the students to Making Light for their journal project.
