John’s Jottings

How to Read The Farking Manual:

• Visit Noel Jackson.com
• Read How to Go to Australia
• Follow the link to Dean Allen’s 11 month old post Manual
• Print off Manual, A Collection of Writing by…
• Read over dinner in the hotel restaurant, at the end of another long day away from home.
• Be thankful for the find.

In case that wasn’t clear, “Manual” is a compendium of stories written by a strong group of writers who (I believe) are all bloggers. From Dean Allen:

The proposal was to write pieces unified by a central theme, to be gathered up and presented in some fashion. It took awhile to arrive at an idea upon which the majority could agree; eventually the contributors acquiesced to take the concept of “how to” as a starting point, then proceed in any damn way they liked.

I love finding things like this.
