44. Checking Inn

They screwed up the rooms at the hotel. I had said three rooms with single beds, but they gave us one room with three single beds. Must be my American accent that caught them up. So, tonight after the signing, we’ll have our own little party back at the room. It shall be grand.

I feel very at home in hotels. I think it’s because I was born in one on the bathroom floor. No time for an ambulance or a midwife. I was delivered by a bellhop. Why did you think my middle name was Hilton?

  1. Dear Burbank,

    I was born where? You can’t take something like a middle name (which is Milton, by the way—the H is part of the penname) and assemble a back story. Blogs are supposed to be truth, not conjecture.

    Thers's a rumor that Milo is ANOTHER pen name of Stephen King and this is all made up.

  4. Dear Tabatha,

    In a sense, you're right--a lot of this is made up because Burbank can't keep focused on what's actually happening when he's so much more excited about what he wants to have happened. Stephen King, though? I wish.
