2 killed when intoxicated driver plows car into crowd at SXSW, police say

Two killed at by drunk driver, 23 injured, all in the span of one minute:

So tragic. Hope all our friends are okay. Our condolences to those affected.

Stay safe, everyone, and seriously, it's not just "friends don't let friends drive drunk." It's "no one should ever let anyone drive drunk." If you see someone intoxicated making moves to drive, intervene, whether you know them or not. Be insistent. Be persistent.

A car driven by an intoxicated man plowed into a crowd at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, killing two people, police said.

“I just give myself permission to suck. I delete about 90 percent of my first drafts … so it doesn’t really matter much if on a particular day I write beautiful and brilliant prose that will stick in the minds of my readers forever, because there’s a 90 percent chance I’m just gonna delete whatever I write anyway. I find this hugely liberating.

"I also like to remind myself of something my dad said in [response] to writers’ block: ‘Coal miners don’t get coal miners’ block.’”
