Brenda Laurel’s Purple Moon computer games aimed for the tween girl market. Her book Utopian Entrepreneur is excellent — I’ll certainly use it in an upcoming media course at Seton Hill. Here’s a choice quote from the Stanford talk:

2. We took a diary and put some bulletholes in it and labeled it “War Journal”. No go. Diariness overrides warness.

Personally, I did not speak to him for a couple of days. But to think a man would go into debt for the sake of testosterone juices enrages me! Missy just laughs and shakes her head at her brother.
