Wow, I haven't blogged in over 2 weeks. How lazy is that? Well I have been anything but lazy lately, so let me fill you in on a tale of heartache and triumph and we'll all be up to date again...
Have no new acceptances to report - not due to rejections but due to the fact that I haven't had time to send anything new out to any open calls. This is because I've been working my curvy butt off on a novella! It's called "Glitter and Trauma" and is part of a collection of four novellas that Jason Barney is putting together. Four writers, four very different superhero stories. Hoping to find a publisher for it in about September, so I shall keep you all posted on that one. It's all I've been working on lately and right now, it's pretty much all I can think about too. Made up a playlist for it on my iPod (the same way I do when I'm working on a novel, or novel idea) and have been blasting it in my ears when I'm out and about and can't write. I won't go into plot details yet, but maybe I'll reveal more next week.
In other news, I'm going to be a teacher. Got accepted onto a teacher training course last week and I start soon. God help the little children. Can you imagine me as a teacher? If I could put Batman on the curriculum I bloody well would.
I know it came out ages ago, but behold, the Dusted link. I got my copy at the end of July and it's such a fantastic book. I see Static Movement are already planning a sequel for it, so as soon as I've got this novella done, I'll get something sent off for this.
I finished Gerald Costlow's The Weaving ages ago and keep meaning to put a review up here. Again, I will add it to the post-novella list.
Better get back to my superladies...
