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

Insent, with note about not-sharing; this is the one that gets the big negotiation next week, between St. Martins and my agent.

Off to party.

Have fun, Deb! I received the file, and downloaded it. Thanks so very, very much!

I'm gonna play in the National Novel Writing Month thing, although I bet odds are against my coming up even coherent or finished in a month...my fics take longer and I have short stories I've been sort of writing for a year. Maybe I'm attracted to hopeless causes.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Because I told myself last year I'd do it, I'm NaNoWriMoing this year.

I figure at the very least, it will serve to get the crap out (it's basically going to be 50000 words of my worst work nightmares) so I can focus on other, more interesting, important writing projects.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm NaNoWriMo-ing too -- I figured, I've had an idea floating that I've researched and sketched and outlined and never actually written any of, so this might be the only thing to actually get me moving.

(And, erika, as I understand it, the point isn't so much to have something coherent and finished, but to get those words down. Coherent comes later, with NaNoEdMo....)

If I only had a brain...

I am thoroughly stuck on the WIP. Maybe I should NaNoWriMo something else.

I've got no idea what I'm gonna say, especially for 50,000 words, but it never stopped anybody on talk radio, right?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hmm. But I'm busy in November.
