OK, sounds universal enough that I'm going to leave it for now.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Fuck. Computer just ate a humongous long post.
Susan, both ends of my family use "stitch". My only query is, would have been common in that point in time?
Still in publishing weirdness, on which I still can't elaborate. But I can say that "Cruel Sister" is, at least, approved and going to be offered on. Other bullshit going on that is making me remember why I hate publishing with a passion.
Allyson, Jenn finally ploughed through a month's back emails and says that, if you have any questions about what agents want and submissions and whatnot, to just write her and ask, she'd be pleased to help out. Amy can vouch for Jenn. So e me if you need.
Meanwhile, beginning to work out the flesh for my next series. No ghosts this time, straight mystery, the main man being a member of a superstar rock band, but not the frontman: think John Entwhistle or John Paul Jones or Charlie Watts: a musician who is a sort of accidental superstar. He's got a female bodyguard (thank you, ita, for allowing it!). There's going to be a lot of injokes and insider stuff, but nothing that can get me sued.
Opinions? Is this likely to fly? I am an evil beeyotch and am seriously thinking about having the first victim be a fanboy biographer....

Deb, the new series sounds like it would be hella fun. Start flinging the glitter.

Well, there goes the story I was mulling of a rock star and his female bodyguard. Ah, well, best to know these things now.

I'm actually writing the first bit of it in another window, even as we speak.

Because books.

Amy, Cindy, will either of you read the first bit for me?
Amy - May 18, 2005 4:58:35 pm PDT #2203 of 10001
Because books.
Oh yeah! Send it along!

Amy, insent.
I need - for reasons you will immediately guess - far deeper than the ususal WIP look at this one. I am - unusual for me - scared shitless.
