Things.
- Crackfic / WAKING MAGIC is now 11k and growing. If this turns into another book, I will be disgusted with myself but quite happy. I mean…seriously. Pissed-off warrior-fairy with shark teeth, gender-swapping, combining magic with bioengineering…what the hell was I drinking when I came up with this?
- Agent blogs are not conducive to finishing work. (Neither is this one, but I waited until I was caught up to post. So nyeh.)
- I’m currently dripping from countless orifices (well, okay, only my nose and eyes). It’s like being a baby again. All the little buggers do is sit there and drip all over everything.
- I’m at once amused and disappointed that so many people retweeted this post, but only one commented. Thank you to everyone who retweeted, though. I wasn’t expecting that kind of response.
- I’ve decided that I’m going to enter ABNA 2010. Probably with the crackfic, not SB – assuming I can finish and edit the crackfic in time. SB…I’m still up in the air about what to do with that, pending response from agents with fulls.
- Still haven’t started proofreading the rewrite. Been too busy reading friends’ manuscripts, plus I want a little more distance from it. Okay, I’m scared of it. Just because it’s rewritten doesn’t mean it’s better, and who knows, this version may end up on the scrap heap.
- Kerry is a bloody awesome writer. I’ll be finishing her manuscript today, after work. There are penguins. Quiver in fear.
- Going to Cirque du Soleil tonight. I’m not sure what to expect, but the show previews had a definite Vaudeville feel. Looking forward to a night out, especially when it appeals to both my cultured and baser pleasures: theatre, well-stocked with man-candy.
- Charles de Lint’s THE BLUE GIRL is a gorgeously written book, and I’m enjoying the hell out of it.
- Everyone’s so quiet. Sihaya, Lessa, Indikaze, etc…granted, it might help if I said something worth responding to.
That’s all.

shhhhhhhhhhhhhh… be veeeeeery veeeeeeery quiiiiiiiiiiet… we’re hunting runny babbits!
Sorry – the back pain kinda overshadows all right now. But I could squee at ya about the Pup’s final official times from her swim meet if ya like! she swam 5 events? and got FOUR RIBBONS! Including her very first 1st place ribbon!
(sure, they were the only relay team in her age group, but WHATEVER. *L*)
And I have to admit? I’m dying to read this “crackfic” thing you speak of. *L*
But it’s duck season!
What happened to your back, woman? You going to be okay? And tell the Pup I said congrats. Damn, girl’s gotta be half-fish, the way she goes.
The crackfic is a frightening thing. I’ve had a few people read it; one likes it, the other’s kind of “meh” about the scene construction I’m using, and overall I’m scared to let anyone else read it because it might disappoint them.
I just never can figure out anything meaningful to say…
Go go ANBA
I don’t know what happened to my back. If I knew, I’d be happier, because I could make sure NOT TO DO THAT AGAIN. Alas, all I have is the fact that I fell about a week before it started to hurt, but that doesn’t really make sense, unless I wrenched it again somehow, and I dunno but OH I WISH IT’D STOP HURTING cuz ugh. srsly.
Do you know how many backmuscles you use to sneeze?
ALL OF THEM.
(ow)
And you could never disappoint me. (grabbyhands)
Sihaya: Just poke me and let me know you’re alive and well every once in a while, and I’ll be happy. Also, still wobbling on ABNA. Seriously, they screwed up badly last year.
Lessa: Ohhhhhh the sneeze. Last year I pulled a muscle in my lower back quite badly while being stupid with our home gym, and was laid up for almost a month – I could barely even get up, and standing up straight was out of the question. Trust me, I found out about the sneeze quite intimately. Ouch. OUCH. You poor thing. Please tell me you’re going to the doctor? It really could be the fall. Sometimes the injury takes a while to register after a fall – kind of like a rubber band worn thin and waiting for that last pressure during daily use to make it snap. I hope your rugrats are waiting on you hand and foot so you don’t exacerbate the injury.
~sits on the crackfick and hides it under his copious bottom~
You could finish what you’d submit and wait it out till the deadline to see how they handle it?
Well, all the stuff they screwed up came in the judging and notification stages of the contest, so “wait it out” doesn’t really work. Waiting until that point means skipping the contest.
