Two, really.

1. If you don't suggest fandoms, it all stops. Saying "this was lovely" and "thank you" make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and then I feel better about doing this, and that's awesome. But if you do it without suggesting a fandom for tomorrow, we may wind up with a day where there's nothing that I'm willing to write. That ( Read more... )

This is still my fannish journal, inasmuch as I'm allowed to have one. Mentioning it or linking it on my professional journal will eventually cause me to stop posting here at all, which will break my heart a little.

Also, while I appreciate having typos and the like pointed out...this is not where I go for editorial commentary. Please, please ( Read more... )

1. I ain't dead.

2. Okay, maybe I am dead. But I'm still pretty.

3. So I, like, released another book. Which is a little weird, and sort of explains why I seem to have vanished from the face of the planet. Late Eclipses, woo! I am...still not very chill about this whole "book release" thing. Mostly, I'm a big ball of stress ( Read more... )

I try very hard to keep this journal separate from my professional journal, for a lot of things, many of which have to do with my wanting to still have one spot on the Internet where I can pretend my editors aren't watching what I do. I know it's pretense. I know that's not the reality. But I still try ( Read more... )

Since I only do this one a year, and people always have the same questions, here are a few notes on the Fannish Advent process. Because I care! Also because I'd rather not confuse people if I can avoid it.

Those of you who've seen even my rough schedule for the remainder of the year will understand why this is an important announcement. So...

1. I am starting my slow descent into madness.
