Maelstrom and Mage rewrite- emailed off
Without even as much fanfare as I emailed the M+M revision, I've just emailed the rewrite to Storm. I had three trusty friends read it, and two of them provided both overwhelming positive responses and a couple of suggestions. The third reader is an absolute love who is a great cheerleader, and those are marvelous to have as well. I had a long conversation with my aunt yesterday morning and as part of that realized that before meddling with it any more, I should go ahead and let the editor read it and get her feedback. I alerted her to the two elements mentioned by my betas, and figured I'd let her do what an editor does, and go from there. Still... yay! :)
In writerly news, I'll hopefully have a new Slave Breakers story by the weekend, and thanks to brumeux77's prompt, I've been doing research on Glastonbury but need to quit that and simply write the Neville/Percy. It's just that research can be so much fun!
I've also done the gauge swatch on my new sweater project. I'll need to take it to a local yarn store to get the contrast color in person, but that's fine- I know in the long run I'll be much happier. The green heather that I did get is a lovely color, so I think I'll make myself a hat! Or maybe I can find a cool vest pattern and use both skeins. Hmmmmmmm
