It is sadly a good feeling to have a job in America in 2011 — sad because so many people don’t and their prospects aren’t good; sad that employment is still hovering around double digits yet no one in government or industry is talking about making jobs; sad that I feel kinda bad for actually having a job. What’s worse, or actually better for me, is that I have a job in the top 10 on this list! Ok, that’s not worse, but I still feel kinda guilty that I’m making a ton of money as per my skill set while others, regardless of their skills, dedication and desire to work, found themselves literally ass out of work, many out of their homes, a ton out of thrice-or-more-extended unemployment benefits.

“Dorothy: Locked & Loaded” is the serialized, collaborative novel effort of five writers, each of whom will play a very specific role within the story of the return to Oz of “Dorothy”. Only this time, it is not “Dorothy Gale” of the original; it is “Dot”, her granddaughter, who grew up listening to the wild and hardly believable tales of her grandmother’s adventures in the land of Oz.
