Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I haven't decided.

“Not dead yet!”

I'm still deciding too. I have a YA I want to be working on, but I also have to be doing a lot of promo this month. ::spits three times and throws holy water::

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm half-assedly doing one(basically just stealing the deadline, because I've made no secret of not fitting in with the NaNo ethic.)

I'm trying to finishing editing my novel this month. It would be impossible for me to write one in a month anyhow even if I used every minute of free time I get.

I'm getting kind of backlogged. I've got the novel I'm editing, I need to work on my short story 'Sarah' to get it into shape for submitting and I think I'll turn that little 250 word piece into a little longer flash piece for submission, though it will sit on the shelf until next year since it's Halloween themed.

Oh yes, and congrats Typo Boy! I said it on Facebook, but no reason not to say it here too.

What is the protocol for Beta-ing? I mean of course expectations can be anything if mutually agreed, but is normal beta-ing one-read-and-comment? Or is normal beta-ing, beta, give feedback, and then beta the modified results?

I think it's pretty much whatever people are willing to do for you.
