- C42 Chance done: "His voice sounded strange in his own ears; he wasn’t sure whether it was his voice or his ears." #
- Six more chapters… #
- @mknippling Good luck to you and your wonderful wife 🙂 in reply to mknippling #
- Wait…one whole Monday went by with no rejections. That's okay, I just got one this morning. #
- C46 Chance done: "He found himself singing the alphabet song under (obviously) his breath. No, that wasn’t right." #
- Florida Roadkill – Tim Dorsey: Poorly-disorganized, nonlinear plot that was brilliant when all pieces known. Probably better in next book. #
- Also, some brilliant murder weapons. #
- All good citizens show up early to collect their children on the first day of school. #
- Ray and I are not sure about her new teacher. Seems to state obvious things in a triple-underscore tone. #
- Last Chance day! For the first draft, anyway. Then on to Ray book #2 and a murder mystery party game. #
- Done with first draft of A Chance Damnation! "Aloysius squatted down next to Jerome. Damn, that kid was going to be tall, he thought." #
- @maureenjohnson Rhapsody in Blue makes excellent sandwich music. in reply to maureenjohnson #
- @DaphneUn Woot! My experience with boy babies usually involves extreme headbutting, as in them and my glasses… in reply to DaphneUn #
- @DaphneUn But the good news is that KK will not have her clothes stolen, which could be a major deal-breaker. in reply to DaphneUn #
- Feeling lost and unsure of what to do until it's time to pick Ray up. What? Answer e-mails? Pffft. #
- Think I'll make a trade-in run at a used bookstore and drop off the rejects at Goodwill or the ARC. The Bug is PACKED with donations. #
- I find giving things away very satisfying. Not, like, uplifting or noble or anything. A sense of closure with unwanted STUFF. #
- I had a terrible nightmare about not being able to find an unimportant phone number. #
- Ayah, another rejection on Alien Blue; she suggested I send her an urban paranormal. Chance Damnation is a RURAL paranormal… #
- @ianthealy Maybe I'll pitch the post-WWII one with mechs as "historical-urban-fantasy-steampunk" just to confuse the issue. in reply to ianthealy #
- 2:15. Time for your regularly-scheduled rainstorm. #
- @jasummerell Small God of Hangovers! in reply to jasummerell #
- @jasummerell Or was that the Oh God of Hangovers? I forget. in reply to jasummerell #
- @ianthealy Nancy Drew Dieselpunk, that's what it is. in reply to ianthealy #
- @jasummerell I recommend you stay away from Greek temples as a method of birth control, then. Or is that parthenonogenesis? in reply to jasummerell #
- @doycet Um, be careful about the contexts in which you say the word "blow." in reply to doycet #
- @doycet By the way, I just found myself doing a victory lap around the house. "Doyce liiiiked it, Doyce liiiiked it." in reply to doycet #
- Ray: "Whipped cat, now that's weird. Like whipped cream, only cat. Meow! Meow!" #
- Eating pears with hot-cocoa-flavored whipped cream. #
- The cat is safely alive, on the couch. #
- Listening to La Bamba on harp at Three Margaritas. Oddly appropriate. #
- Ray got her orange belt! #
- @inkgypsy I'm thinking about giving them humanoid mech suits, actually. in reply to inkgypsy #
- @Rarnabybudge Hm…The character that springs to mind for that might make it seem like settling for what she can get. I'll think about it. in reply to Rarnabybudge #
- "Vengeance Quilt" done. "Claire, especially, reminded him of himself in seminary; she chased down technicalities like a dog after a rabbit." #
- This is the first short story I've written for a previously-invented world; it's the same world as "Chance Damnation." #
- Why is it that all the supermarket blackberries have especially sucked this year? #
- Author Allegra Gray signing at the Briargate B&N TONIGHT at 7 p.m. Book: Nothing but Deception. #
- Ray's sick…Lee's sick…I abruptly feel like shit. This does not bode well. #
