So let me start off by saying, it’s about three hours after my bedtime, but I couldn’t go to sleep without telling you about Patricia Wrede’s Thirteenth Child. I’d actually planned to post this sometime later today, on release day and all, but I can’t wait. I'm writing this in a bit of fit of passion, so you'll forgive me for that.

Oh, and did you see the Collection of Horrors? You should, I’ve written two bits of it, and you can download one RIGHT NOW. (Or, if you rather, get a subscription and get a whole bunch of Hunter the Vigil goodness, I can’t blame you. There’s some great stuff in there.

What have I been doing? (Like you even care WHY DON'T YOU CALL?! /endmotherlyrant)

I wrapped up my latest freelancing work for Matt. It was a blast to write, and so I hope it doesn't blow entirely.
Im still in my creative writing class, which is interesting or at least something like it. I'm going to give poetry another chance. (You know, as an ( Read more... )

I'm blogging to day in crappy stick figure drawings to make my emotions perfectly clear.

Sometimes I write fanfiction about people who really exist and who are in my life. The are not fictitious people, and while I fabricate the events-- mostly-- I rarely write anything that I don't think COULD have happened.

That said, today, I wrote such a peace in response to a contest about geektatude. You can read it here, and see the photo that ( Read more... )
