That's a good idea. Really anything of about the right vintage would do the trick. And if I try hard enough, I could probably find an email address for some of those British re-enactors and get them to help me with some of those pesky sensory details.

still wanna play with the guns....

Blackpowder rifles have a hell of a kick. I've only fired one once. I don't shoot .45s because I have small hands and all the ones I've tried have been so big, I've been afraid the big-ass kick would throw the thing out of my grip.

Oh, and what I was actually coming over here to post about....

Woohoo!

I sold the Glastonbury article!

I feel like I'm finally back in the swing of things as a writer after my massive strikeouts throughout 2004.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Woo hoo! That's great news, Susan.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Way to go, Susan!

I was going to post the first 6 pages of the new novel here, but I left it on my old hard drive.

Erin (Hi!!!!!), is that the one that I read?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Nope, I have abandoned that idea as more suitable for short stories. I couldn't deal with a whole novel on succubi. Too limiting.

This is a new one. When I find the pages, ya wanna?
