In the Times
By Sean at 13 March, 2008, 11:35 pm
There is an interview with me in “Under Western Eyes,” an article on English language Russia blogs for the Moscow Times. I especially like this line about myself. “Despite being recognized at parties and quoted in the press, Guillory is a little uncomfortable about his success.” Parties? Quoted in the press? Eek! I know I’m going to catch some shit for that . . .

Congrats on the write up.
Take it easy, Sean
How come I never get invited to these parties?
Chris! Is this “some shit” Sean is talking about?
Nah, I know our resident Roman can do better than than.
These parties weren’t arranged by Gauls, were they?
Anyone who looks through the blog’s archives, which include 563 posts….
And sixty thousand comments by Mike Averko…
Wow, that is not how I pictured Sean as looking at all.
Hmmm, I’m a little surprised they didn’t mention you write for the eXile.
In all honesty, I fucking forgot to. Stupid mistake.

Hence the importance of promoting yourself and tediously listing all those venues your commentary has appeared at – both real and imagined – at every available opportunity.
Averko just pissed you off somewhere, didn’t he, Tim?
We might have to retire Mike’s jersey for his thousands of comments.
Averko just pissed you off somewhere, didn’t he, Tim?
Nah. I pretty much ignore him nowadays. His ability to piss me off disappeared once I realised he is, in all seriousness, a raving lunatic.
Alright, seriously, enough is enough. It’s bad enough that Averko spams me with his updates and corrections to his updates. And now his Kosovo ranting (it’s the tone more than anything that gets me) shows up when I read Counterpunch.
But really, really, do we have to talk about him even when God has granted a respite from the blathering against westmASSmedia?
The dog is sleeping. Let him lie.
On a different note, Sean, I know fending off the paparazzi is difficult, but that’s what you get for going public with your mug.
Congrats on the coverage, at any rate.
Apart from growing a moustache, what do I have to do to get a Fulbright-Hays Scholarship?

Good point. With that ‘tasche, I sure I’ve seen him in a porn flick somewhere. He does live in California, after all.
“Hence the importance of promoting yourself and tediously listing all those venues your commentary has appeared at – both real and imagined – at every available opportunity.”
That would be certainly “dirty” and may be even “venal”, no?
As for the photo. They asked for one, I gave them one. I do have a bit of a porn ’stache in that one.
Congrats!
Nice work, and don’t forget to invite us to a few of these parties…
Congratulations on the write-up Sean:-)Will this new found fame mean freebies for you at Rasputin, etc?:-)
Well-deserved kudos, Sean! Well-deserved, indeed!
