Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
Okay, so I've decided to polish up the YA novel I wrote at the end of 2010 and stick it up on the Kindle store. Towards that end, I would love to have a few sets of fresh eyes on it, to point out any major holes or lapses. It's 50k and a pretty quick read. Anyone interested?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Gud you are my hero! You went from 0 to 50 with the novel writing!
Um, I'd read it Holli since it's summer and I have time. But I'm not an expert on YA.

I could read it if the time frame is long enough. I've got a bit of a beta-reading queue.
I'm the guest blogger on my agent's blog today :)

I think I have my storylines for Cog and the Copper Dragon. I still need to assemble the story and come up with a more concrete idea of the ending, but I'm liking what I have. I love my character Essy, but I don't think she's going to get a storyline in this book, it's already pretty full. It would be fun to do something with Arla too, but I think she'll have to be content with being an occasional member of Cog's scooby gang when they need some muscle. Cog will have to deal with a dangerous mystery, betrayal, friends at odds with each other, her Papa's scary new girlfriend, turning fourteen, and a boy.
I getting excited about getting up to some more steampunk fun.

Because books.
That's the sequel to Cog, Gud? Nice!
