Memo: Paranoia


Memo: When even the astrologists are picking on you, you have every right to be paranoid!
.
This is a copy of my stars that came through in the Newspaper Magazine this weekend.
.
On the one hand, it's great that someone who writes horoscopes seems to think I have talent (at least as much as the millions of other cancerians who read the same newspaper, lol).
.
On the other hand, yes, I do know that I didn't get through the entire list of things I wanted to do to promote The Gift last week. I didn't have a fantastic week health wise and I'd made a pretty huge list of things and places where I wanted to promote my story. I got quite a lot of it done, but I'm still working on finishing it.
.
I don't believe in astrology, but I'll admit that this one guy is freakily accurate when it comes to my own life. It makes me feel like the guy must be following me around and watching me over my shoulder to get it right so often.
.
So, yes, most of last week when on promting The Gift. This week I'm hoping to do more of the same.
.
On which note, the lovely Bronwyn Green has posted an interview with me on TEB author's blog. You can read that here.
.
Also, very excitingly, someone bought The Gift. And if that's not exciting enough, she liked it too. I recieved a lovely e-mail from a Norwegian m/m writer, and she's also posted her opinion on The Gift on her blog here.
.
I also had new cover art for the Night of the Sense BDSM Anthology which will include my m/f vampire story Whispers. I'll post the cover with the blurb in a seperate post.
What else do I have to update you on?
.
Between Tooth and Paw went to contract for inclusion in the Caught in the Middle MFM Anthology in May 2009. My editor is going to send me the edits on them this week.
.
I've done the big edit that In the Heat of the Moment needed. It will need at least another three go throughs before it's ready to submit. Hopefully that will happen before the end of the week. It's a short-ish story, so it's possible.
.
The story I'm writing at the moment - another short M/m one called Sealing the Deal - is at 9,000 words as of last night. That means I have 3,000 left to go on it, so that should be finished on Tuesday or Wednesday. It will hopefully go off to a publisher in January.
.
Did I forget anything? My head's still spinning in so many different directions, I probably did.
.
That's it from me anyway.
.
New cover art to follow in a seperate post.

I agree with Kavs - You ARE doing the work of ten people by yourself...but since I love your stories, I'm not complaining. :)

Just remember to take care of yourself! :)
