...and she picked three of my characters for me to classify.

Not easy ones, either.

MARRY: Dean, from my upcoming story "God of Wine" in the Other Magical Creatures anthology.

He doesn't shy away from women with unresolved issues from previous relationships. Or relationships that aren't so "previous."

SHAG: Denny Clay, from Oil Change and the ( Read more... )

I hosted the Torquere LJ today, then went to a concert. And then, to top it all off, we went out to a bar and drank absinthe and listened to a really shitty band. But now I'm home again, and it's time to report my progress ( Read more... )

I'm hosting the torquere_social LiveJournal today. I've already written and posted a brand new Angels Come to Visit ficlet that catches up with Keir and Christophe a few months after the novella, on Christophe's Naming Day.

"Ghost Notes": 140 today, 1901 total ( Read more... )

Angels Come to Visit: 20,076. (963 today.) Complete and getting ready to be formatted for submission.

I finished a first round of edits on Angels Come to Visit, which I've been calling "Keir" as a kind of shorthand until I settled on a title. Keir being, of course, the name of the main character. I'm waiting for my lovely writing partner to do a read-through and give me some advice before I look at it again ( Read more... )
