One of The Knight Agency's super-agents, Nephele Tempest, has moved her blog over to Wordpress.  I may soon follow.  The spam comments I have to continually delete and other LJ issues are chasing me away.  (It amazes me that legitimate commenters have had difficulty, and yet spammers seem to have none at all.)  Anyway, just wanted to help spread ( Read more... )

I’ve been so crazed lately, that the catchphrase, such as it is, on my blog, “Authorial, Agently and Personal Ramblings,” has only been partially correct.  I’ve barely posted the authorial at all, partly because my character Gina has insisted on having a life of her own and started her own blog over here, and partly because I’ve been so busy on ( Read more... )
