Also relieved that what I turned in was apparently pretty decent. She presents her edits in such a way that is very compatible with how I organize my thoughts, so it was super easy-peasy to jump in. She even goes to the same bird place in Florida that I've been to with my sister, when she visits family in Florida. This also means I finally got to talk to my new editor Tracey for the first time. Once a month.īut this will be short because I have an editorial letter for Dark Metropolis 2! Yay! It came on Monday. Posted at 09:29 pm | Link | Leave a comment | 1 comment | Share | Flag Feb. But a book in two weeks, not the reading I hope for, and all my ALA books are still taunting and tempting! I finished Far From You and The Nightingale's Nest, which were both good.

I've managed to keep from dipping into my savings much at all so as long as everything can hold together, I'm good for a while, enough that I felt confident planning a trip to BEA and not in a really hard-up way: I'm taking Amtrak, not the bus! I'm staying with friends who rented an apartment near the Javits where I will sleep on an actual bed or sofa bed! It's going to be amaaaaaazing!ĭidn't read much. I've really been loving what I do in a way I haven't since the fall of 2012.Īlso a good Ebay month: $1802 in sales. When this year started, I felt as if maybe I was really getting my writing mojo back, but I wasn't sure.however, so far, so good. In fact, from here on out I am referring it to the Magical Mafia book because I'm realizing that even though A&O are the cutest, their romance isn't really the focus, it's really more of a fantasy family drama. I also started an Alfred & Olivia rewrite as a reward for getting the DM2 recount done. I've never had a group of characters where I feel like I could pair them off in so many different ways and it could work. I don't really know why I keep thinking about it like this. And how about Sigi over here with her childhood friend, who doesn't love that? Sometimes I'm like, Nan and Thea's friendship is so cute I almost wish they were the lesbians! Sebastian protecting Freddy-d'aww, they could make out right now and it wouldn't feel wrong! Ooh, now Nan and Freddy are making an awfully good team together. I'm really into writing it, like, truly, love these characters and I feel like in my head I am shipping all of them. I finished revisions on the first part of Dark Metropolis 2 and got a decent jump, 4k or so, on the second part. Despite the worries, March has been amazingly productive.

Trying not to think about all the work still ahead, the days ticking away. I'm just taking the writing one day at a time. This one will be super quick because ack, deadlines!!
