That's lovely, deb.
Erin, if you want another beta reader I'd be happy to volunteer with the caveat that I don't really know anything about anything.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
SO, I'm pitching the idea of a book of drabbles - an anthology - to my agent. BenBella does great anthologies, and I'm thinking they might be interested.
If she wants to pitch it, and says it's doable, would people be interested?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I would!

If Marlene would handle it, it would be dead simple to do. Hell, we wouldn't even have to write specific drabbles, there are already so many superb ones done.
But right now, I'm in the cautious feeler-putting-out stage.
Oh, and BenBella would love me to contribute a short story or three to a Veronica Mars anthology. Shame I've never seen the show.

Heh. Cindy, I know. I'm just trying to figure out if I have any time at all to wedge immersion in what looks to be a complex list of characters.
Speaking of total immersion, here's me back into the pass pages for Cruel Sister. No post-it notes, yay!

Because books.
Deb, I would love a drabble anthology. Good idea.

Deb I would love one. After what you said could you use the ones from this board - previously published and all that? (I don't think permissions would be a problem; I can't imagine many of us refusing giving permissions.)

I'd have to check on that - about the previous pub thing - but I'm hoping a multi-author anthology will have slightly different status than a single full-form manuscript.
This may not even be something that gets off the ground, guys. But if it does, I'm on it.
