Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

And I see Deena's there too now.

Yippee!!!

I can't wait to read it, Deb.

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

Apparently they're shipping, even as we speak.

I am a happy woman.

Also, going to post something in Press - a sort of contest thing.

Beverly's review is wonderful. How exciting this is. Yay, Deb!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

So, what counts as "verified"?

Deb, when are you going to be in Seattle? I forgot if you posted it in Press or Beep Me.

If I only had a brain...

Guys, be here now. Don't write tomorrow's stuff. Don't edit tomorrow's stuff. Don't worry about tomorrow's wordcount.

Write what you know. After you write that, you may well know something else. Write that.

And don't look back. Something might be gaining on you.

What Betsy said, bigtime.

Sassy, Seattle is first week of January: I have a confirmed event (Q&A, reading, signing, prezzies for questions) scheduled for 7 January. I'm hoping to get up there a few days earlier (say, the previous weekend) and we're trying to arrange a signing at Third Place Books.

edit: Hil, I'll take it on trust, most likely.

Thanks Deb. I'm excited to go! I plan on buying your book for a Christmas present for at least one friend, so maybe she'll want to go, too.

Sassy, it ought to be fun. A nice lively evening.

I'm doing something unusual for me tonight: I'm reading ionstead of writing. I'm up to page 167 (in manuscript format) of the second book in this series, and it's definitely my favourite of the bunch. I hadn't looked at it since the final beta pass I got before sending it off to Ruth, back in March or thereabouts.
