Congrats, Holli!
I'm still slogging through my experimental new first chapter. Lack of time is slowing me down.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

~ma released. Bah. The submission was out for a lot longer than average turnaround, and I got some helpful feedback and a 'send more,' which was nice. Still? Bah.

Sorry that one didn't work out, some real feedback and a 'send more' is certainly encouraging though.

Because books.
"Send more" is always encouraging.

It is! I'm going to sit on the encouraged bench.
I'm getting ready to send a couple back out into the wild by the end of the week, in fact. If anyone wants to beta? Or, in one case, gamma or epsilon.

I'll beta. But I probably won't be real quick.
My submission from February is still out there, but they say 6-8 months, so I only starting to get toward the standard reply time.

Yah, those guys have a long lead time.
Thanks Gud!

No problem, I'm happy to beta read. I wish I had the time right now to be really quick on the turn around, but I'll try to get there in the next couple of days.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I'd offer to beta stuff -- next week, though, so this offer might now work.
ION, I am blogging once a day on "Fiction" and it's kicking my ass. But it's like windsprints, except for no running (thank you jesus.)
Yesterday's post was finished at 1:30 am, so it's a little slap-happy, but I am grimly determined to pump out something every day for August. I WILL WRITESERVERE!
