Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

And we will call it... "This Land."

stumbles out of bed realizing she didn't set the midday alarm and has a dozen frantic emails in her box...

I think the Critters (IIRC, isn't Ms. Havisham working with them?) also have market listings, too.

Critters? I'm part of a Yahoo group called OWWW... we do trade tips, of course, but I don't think there's an official market list. One tip I picked up is that you *can* call a publisher and ask which editor worked on a book (which you think is similar to your style of writing) and IF you're nice and polite and not frothy-fanboyish about it you might even get a real name. Haven't tried that one yet.

deb... well, everyone's already said it. If you can get his address, we can make sure this guy gets what's coming. Paging the Minister of Kill Stupid People...

The pornanthology: it's on hold, yup, until we actually have enough material to work with. It's not dead, it's just resting.

I'm mearaing in Great Write Way. What?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Heheheh. Well, the thread's been busy, at least partly due to my ranting.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Just want to say that Fay's P'thology story is lovely and grand. (I was lucky enough to be one of the betas.)

Beaucoup thanks to everyone who beta-read and commented on my bit of flash-fiction. Lifesavers, one and all.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Deb, Ms. Havisham, are y'all still up for critiquing my first attempt at a sex scene? It's about 2800 words, 9 1/2 double-spaced pages. (I'll take other volunteers, too, if anyone is interested.)

I'm leaving for the ice rink in about fifteen minutes, so unless y'all are around right this very minute, I'll be actually sending it later this evening.

Always Anti-fascist!

I'll take a look, if you want.

Susan, I'm here and at home (baking savarin for Steph, in fact), so send to my profile addy whenever you wish, m'dear.
