...at least it feels like that. I'm getting excited.
Green Man Review will launch their Orphan's Tales edition on December 30 (Sunday), which will include reviews of Cat's work and mine. This will be the first 'press' review of Solace & Sorrow. Because I am only slightly lazy when it comes to seeking praise from folks with the power of print. The pen IS mightier.
Jim Freund will air the recording of the New York City Orphan's Tales Roadshow, taped on December 4 2007, on his radio show Hour of the Wolf, on December 29 (Saturday) at ohgod in the morning (5-7am EST). Yes, it will stream at some point if you're not in Manhattan. Yes, we kicked ass and you want to hear that broadcast if at all possible.
Info on the show is here, and a link to listen will be up
on this page sometime after the show airs.
If there's no possible way for you to ever catch the show, online or on the air, K and I have our own recording of it and you may very sweetly ask us to share. Same night, identical recorder.
end PSA.
:D
omnisti and i are successfully holding down the fort (with our lazy butts) at chateau tucker while MJ is away repairing a church in Mexico with her minions--did I mention that I'm the daughter of a damn superhero? who's shorter than me?
today was definitely all about hibernation and the act of nesting. and that is quite all right with me. i will come out of my cave soon to visit friends in Memphis and Hot Springs, really I will! don't give up on me. I'm still recharging for now.
although if I'm gonna go and see our dear friend Sweeney on the big screen, I'm going to have to get in gear. getting restless on that front, definitely. my Depp/Burton/Bonham-Carter low-light is beeping.
by the way, all of you sweet, sneaky people who were in on the LOGIC STUDIO Conspiracy.........
you have my thanks.
I bounced and bounced.
and now we are waiting for it to arrive, and I am flat-out terrified.
The more I learn about recording, the more it eats my life.
then again, it IS my life.
Learning a new program is like learning to swim for me. And I fought that one like hell until I was eight.
At least recording programs don't have creepy swimming pool drains. and digital is so very forgiving. hardly lethal.
Finding out about Logic is a hard tie for the best moment of yesterday with something equally extraordinary.
My nearly-17-yr-old baby cousin Stacie painted a portrait of me and gave it to me yesterday afternoon.
I have a Stacie Peacock original, and I'm speechless with pride, love, and joy.
The Stace has had a hard life (type one diabetes, among other things), and I've always done my best to tell her how much I love her.
If I ever had a doubt that she loves me back (impossible), now I have a portrait of my own face to demolish it with.
It looks an awful lot like Daria...*smirk*....but I could care less.
and here I sit.
Happiness is spending the day after Crimma doing as little as possible, with only your love (who had waaay too much fun being glued to the MythBusters marathon for nearly the whole day).
