I hope I left enough information in my original prompts for the Yuletide sign-up post, but essentially what I mentioned last year in my Yuletide Author Letter still applies and as long as there is a believable happy ending, I'm fine. I don't mind if the author wants to write a story that is different from the prompts I provided as long as they ( Read more... )

It's been forever and a day and this past year has been an emotional roller-coaster. I've been horrible in regards to social media and my blogging in the past couple of years and I'm working on a revamp of sorts. Gonna starting updating my LJ more often, along with starting a Tumblr and doing more on my professional Twitter account. (No, seriously ( Read more... )

Oh, it's been forever since I last updated, but my RL got really crazy there for a few months and I'm slowly getting back on track ( Read more... )

-June really kicked my ass when it came to work. I've mentioned this before, but while I really have learned a lot by working at the literary agency, I would prefer to work with a bigger company.

I've been feeling very overwhelmed with the responsibility I now have regarding all of the books we are representing.

I'm extremely happy that my recipient liked their yuletide story, especially since this is the first year I've really participated in the holiday challenge. I did sign up for the 2005 New Year Resolutions Challenge, but didn't get a chance to sign up for the main Yuletide challenge that year. The story I wrote can be found here. It's based on the His Dark ( Read more... )

*I'm so happy with the final result of my yuletide story and I've loved that my recipient liked it so much. I'm proud that I was able to write something in a brand-new fandom and it definitely helped boost my confidence in my writing. Can't wait for the reveal, so I can link to the story in my LJ. I also really liked what I was able to write for kradam_holidays and I can ( Read more... )

I love how my RL implodes right around the time when I start getting involved with writing/fandom-related stuff again. Like freaking clockwork, I swear ( Read more... )
