That's a great looking cover, Sox. Very exciting!

COG news is unfortunately all bad. My agent gave up on COG and we have parted ways. Not sure where to go with COG. I feel like it's good (and I got positive feedback from editors, just not a sale), but it's been shopped.
I still have a load of notes from my ex-agent and her intern on DRAGONFIRE (working title) so I may work on shaping it up and querying it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So, uh, I sold my favorite story to The Book Smugglers, which means I get pro rates and royalties and cover art and an ISBN and a Kindle/Kobo/Smashwords/etc listing and I can't believe this is really happening.

Yay, P-C!

not your mom's socks.
Arg, Gud. I'm really sorry to hear this, as I liked Cog very much. Is it something you might explore for self-publishing? Best of luck with Dragonfire. And finding a great fit with your next agent.
PC, wonderful news! Congratulations!

Because books.
I'm sorry about COG, Gud. Sometimes it's just not the right time for something. But fingers crossed on Dragonfire!
Congratulations, P-C! When does it come out?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Gud, my uncle just this last week sold a novel that he had been trying to sell for over a decade. Not only that, but he sold it to one of the publishing houses he most wanted to work with. As Amy said, it might not be the right time for something. There may, however, come a time that is right.

Congratulations, P-C! When does it come out?
They're shooting for June. I have a small flash piece coming out in March, and I have no idea when Genius Loci is coming out, or when my Fireside story will appear. But I have four stories coming out this year, what the hell.
Gud, wishing you the best of luck with COG.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm sorry to hear about COG, Gud. I hope it's right time does come.
Congrats, P-C! Four stories is most impressive!
