Sunday Small Talk

I missed last week since it was the beginning of nano and I was in a groove. The nano groove is going great. I'm just over 18K for 7 days so there's that. Hopefully at this rate I'll have two novels to shop around in the next year.

Because I do know now that my vampires in Vegas will have to wait. It's almost finished but with nano and the holidays, it won't get edited through by the end of this year so I have failed in that goal. I'm not going to beat myself up over it. I almost made it and I WILL make the goal of finishing it and that's the important thing since I have a bad habit of not finishing. It'll go out early next year.

Unfortunately my usual first reader is having computer issues and sadly I gave away my older computer this summer or I'd tell her to meet me in Louisville and she could have it.

My Halloween stories did well enough which is cool. I might write a Yule freebie. We'll see.

Other than that I have no publishing news other than I am thinking on my Weird Western short story. I'm reading an ARC for Silver on the Road which is a Weird Western and excellent. Completely different than anything I would ever have considered but it's putting me in the mood to write mine.




Nano Snippet - Kaleo couldn’t breathe. Toy training. The bogeyman every slum parent told their unfortunate offspring. Be good or the Confederation doctors will make you into a Toy. Everyone knew what happened to the Toys. None of the kids believed it was real. When the first man pinned him down, Kaleo realized his bladder had let go.
