FOR BILL - In Appreciation of `GeneratingHype

=salshep:iconsalshep: reports, January 6, 2008
I had started this on the quiet recently, a chain-of-whispers for a surprise to spring on `GeneratingHype, to cheer him up since he's been unwell.

:( But it seems he's had to retire from dA for the moment, so it doesn't make much sense to keep it hush-hush any longer.

What I'm asking people for is to write a poem or bit of prose "For Bill", something to make him laugh (or cry, we all know what a giant softie-heart he has), just something written especially for him. I wanted folks to post me the links, and was going to stick them all in one post on his front page, as a lark.

Anyhow, might as well do it here, hey? Won't get so lost under all the get-well-soon messages and such.

Let's write something for Bill, so he'll have a pile of reading to do when he feels up to it again, and is reminded how very highly he's thought of in this community.

Link your poem or prose "For Bill" here, if you decide to write one.


:heart:
