So it looks like I'm going here in October - [link] - which is very cool, and I'm excited, but now my brain is doing the OMGNooo!NewPeople dance. I'm sure I'll calm down before then right? Also, I'm starting to doubt that that story I sold is ever going to come out (been a few months, haven't heard about edits), and I'm thinking it was all a cruel joke plotted by monkeys, or the trees. It is possible that I am still jittery from all the allergy steroids and could just chill. A lot.

Oh cool, Sox!
I refer to their Evil Overlord lists a lot.

I'm four chapters away from the first draft of Cog. Maybe I'll have time this long weekend to do a chapter or (dare I dream) two.

Sox, are you planning to attend The Girl Cooties Theory of Literature?

See, I'm more likely to throw down the Bechdel Test when this subject comes up. Which, I am sure, will make me insanely popular.

eee! I was visiting the Smart Bitches Trashy Books and they had a video at the RWA literacy signing and GUESS WHO shows up! (for those who can't stand the suspense, it's our own Barb - with a shot of her lovely book cover)

I'm now in chapter 28 of Cog. The ending is getting ever so close.

Coding and Sleeping
I'm still slogging through chapter 28. Not really stuck, just haven't had that much time and last night I decided to fix some of the known typos in the first 27 chapters. I wouldn't call it revision, just fixing really bad typos. Still very much a rough draft.

I finished a section in chapter 28. I'm a good writing session from being done with it. Then the final two chapters. I'll overshoot my wordcount goal, but that's good as I'm sure to lose words in editing.

Because books.
Gud, you're awesome. Also, would you like to finish my book for me? ::weak smile::
In other news, I had a really crappy day, and a blogger posted a review of Cold Kiss that actually made me cry. She really got it! I'm stunned and so pleased.
