Gud, you can do it! I'm so proud of your for persevering.
I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

Thanks. I feel much better about this novel than the first. The first one is going back in the shop before sending it out again.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
So in my freakout this morning, I posted in the wrong thread, but I sold a story to Daily Science Fiction.
I have to thank you guys in this thread who mentioned it, because I didn't know it existed.

Because books.
Yay again!
And that's great news about the second book, Gud.

not your mom's socks.
No matter how nice they are, or how encouraging, three rejections and a rewrite request is not what I ordered for this week. When I am queen, things will be different.
I just wrote a blog post about finding (more of) my people at a writers' conference. It was too long and difficult to explain the (more of) without getting into a whole discussion of the board, so I glossed it, hoping that folks here would know what I meant. You do right?
Signed, sending out my stories until hell won't have them.

Three rejections and a rewrite request is actually a decent ration, babe. Get to work.
Or! Watch Misery Bear. I think I'm in love.

Yes'm!
I finished a first swipe at a synopsis today (or, what I think a synopsis is, which could be completely wrong) and a first outline.

Misery Bear is perfect.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ha, adorable and perfect. And props for the use of Dead Space (2, presumably).

Question that has one foot in tech: Has anyone here ever used Scrivener? If so, I'd love to hear if you liked it, didn't like it, and why.
