Jilli, you just smacked Sam and said, "TAG! YOU'RE IT!"
Hee! Quick, let's fly around London!
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My parents grew up in Chelsea, Massachusetts. I thought Joni Mitchell's song was about that Chelsea when i was little. My mom set me straight, which was kind of depressing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'd totally name a daughter Pipistrelle. I think.
We lived in Chelsea, UK for a heartbeat. It was good.

Oh, that would be so charming!
Nyarg. Revisions on chapter 9, done! Onward to the final chapter, which I suspect is going to take a bit more work. But my goal is to have the second half of the manuscript off to my beta readers by tomorrow, which would give me next week to do the final polishing and tweaking.
Allyson, after I get my manuscript sent off to my editor, I want to read about Sam.

Dang would you look at these two amazing writers in our midst? Seriously, it makes me glad to know that sometimes good things come to good people in this world.

I went to my first fair in ages tonight, and had a blast. Rode the Tilt-a-Whirl and the big Ferris Wheel, listened to some music, ate a super-nummy roasted ear of sweet corn, and brought home a candy apple. Maybe it's just that I'm older and less timid, but the carnies seemed much less like refugees from Something Wicked This Way Comes than I remember...

And we're fortunate enough to have more than those two!
Matt, I love a good fair and haven't been to one since I visited the LA County Fair in 2001 or 2002.
