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.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I just need someone to tell me if it sucks, honestly. Want me to send the gdoc to your profile addy?

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 :)

Nice, Gud!

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!

ita posted this in Movies, I think, but it's worth posting here, too: Story rules from Pixar.

Yep, it's the sequel. It's what my agent would like me to work on next (not being pushy about it or anything), and I agree it makes sense. It should be fun to work on, and now that I've got my head wrapped around the storylines, I'm getting anxious to start digging in. I'm going to have a lot of demands on my time for awhile though.

I think it's smart to get to work on the sequel, Gud. Do it!
