Got it, -t. I'm probably going to read later this afternoon, early evening, after errandage.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sweet. Thanks, again!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I suspect I'd be terrible at writing smut. I blush too easily.

Because books.
When we started the erotic romance line at the publisher where I used to work, we all gaped at the first round of submissions. But then we sort of got used to it. And read the really funny, purple bits out loud to each other.

My wife read my scene and said it was more tender than hot. That fits the story so I was happy.

“Not dead yet!”
I managed to completely embarass two young adult editors with my love scenes. If only they read the stuff I write for my adult work.

“Not dead yet!”
I got another agent rejection today. Another very nice one-- probably the nicest yet, with a lot of "Wow, you're a wonderful writer, but I don't even know where I'd try to place your stuff which suggests to me that I'm really not the right agent for you."
Oddly, I'm not crushed or even mildly upset. I've just got this whole mellow sort of attitude going on. I wonder if I should be worried. It's so unlike me.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I say ride the mellow out while you've got it. Hee.

Ugh Barb, I'm sorry to hear about the rejection, but I agree with Liese. Ride the mellow. The right match will come.

Coding and Sleeping
Finished chapter 17 last night. It was a shorty. After reading my wife's comments, it will need work but nothing drastic. She also had an idea for a little change that I really like.
