Author signed for The Demon of Petty Disturbances: Doh-da
|
| Bantry, Ireland - Award
winning surrealist poet and on-line author K. Kylyra Ameringer has signed
with the W.L. Agency to represent the novel 'The Demon of Petty Disturbances:
Doh-da'. In this first of a series of planned novels, Ameringer has honed
her rich character development and fantastic imagery with an acerbic wit
to create a devilishly good book. Anticipation for a positive human reaction
to the series is high with both W.L. Agency and Ameringer. "It still
makes me laugh. After writing it, editing it countless time, it still make
me laugh. And that says a lot," Ameringer was overheard commenting.
Hell's reaction to the news was not as positive. The Wrath
Department is currently in an uproar, and reports are in that several underling
demons have already lost their heads when an unnamed 2nd Class Demon went
on a rampage in the offices. Contacts in the Administrative Department
have said inquires were underway as to how this human wrote the story.
Tronaugh, 1st Class Demon of Petty Disturbances, was detained for questioning.
"I have never met this human, been assigned to this
human, nor, to my knowledge, been seen by this human. This is obviously
a case of hyper-link psychosis from prolonged exposure to the ether,"
Tronaugh said. "I'm confident all evidence in the investigation will
confirm this. I have nothing to hide."
While Hell tests the ether for evidence of Ameringer's
presence the decision of whether or not to allow the book to be published
continues to be debated. In the meantime, human reality marches onward.
Human Reality Experts warn that if Hell does not act decisively within
the next few months the probability bend of the book being published will
be too strong to do anything about.

Daily Gets new Editor, New Design |
| Hell - The Demon Daily, eternal official
voice of Hell, has promoted Akira Tsu to Editor-in-Chief. Tsu replaces
outgoing Editor Heinlein after a brief two month stint that saw subscriptions
plummet by 62%.
"We will be taking The Demon Daily to the cutting
edge of publications in Hell," said Tsu. "The Demon Daily will
not only be back in digital form as an automatic uplink in your terminals,
but will also be broadcast on Cranium Wave 6.341 for those of you with
implants."
Tsu's statements mark a dramatic shift for The Demon Daily,
which was reverted purely to a paper publication under the helm of Heinlein.
Heinlein desired to "hook into the kitsch" of the archaic publication
method, but readers were apathetic to his efforts. Claiming "All of
you need a good jyinbetz to the head," Heinlein made his exit from
The Demon Daily today via a side passage.
DNET welcomes the return of our digital brother, The Demon
Daily, under the guidance of new Editor-in-Chief Akira Tsu.

Complex Renovations |
| Hell - Get ready for a new look! After
long deliberation, Administration has finally approved extensive renovation
plans for the majority of our complex.
First on the schedule are the well used and overly shabby
common areas. However much we enjoy the current art-deco look we can all
agree that one thousand years of it is enough! Sources inside Administration
claim the new look is centered in the post-modern-Zyplst era circa Earth
3821 A.D., which should be quite a change.
Second on the schedule (and surprisingly enough) are the
3rd class demon residences for all departments. In a radical shift from
standard protocol, Administration has pushed the 3rd level domiciles to
a priority position, claiming, "Our 3rd Class Demons work extraordinarily
hard and have been undervalued for far too long. Their residences are some
of the oldest in the complex and are badly in need of repairs."
Renovations of department offices and the remaining residence
spaces are also planned. However, despite several student protests, Demon
University is not scheduled for repairs. University group Students Under
Constant Kiptz (S.U.C.K.) responded in formal letter, stating, " The
University is falling apart. Two students were injured last year when the
ceiling of their dorm room collapsed. Staircase X7 has been closed because
it's too dangerous to use. Our terminal uplinks are from the mid-21st century.
... [Administration] will eventually pay for this by having to deal with
the upcoming graduating classes who, in all likelihood, are not ready to
take their place in demon society."
