It's been mentioned that I don't update this thing enough. So here goes!
Right now I am mourning the loss of our excellent house guests
meronine and
bonhwa_seong. I think did more sightseeing with the two of them here than in all my other visits to New York, (too busy writing, haha) and I really had fun playing amateur tour guide alongside
ladyjaida. I miss them already!
This coming week is going to be spent working for the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. I was a national judge for the Sci-Fi/Fantasy category this year, so I'm very much looking forward to (hopefully) chatting with some of the winners. Also, Jaida and I are running two workshops on Friday that apparently filled up quite quickly, so that's exciting! Nerve-wracking. Also exciting, though! I hope we don't disappoint.
The week after that, I whisk Jaida away to Canada for a self-imposed writing retreat/visit to the family.
And then the week after that, er, Havemercy hits shelves.
So in conclusion, I'm currently feeling too busy to live.
BUT VERY VERY EXCITED!
