For once I was actually prepared to post things and was thwarted by WordPress, for some reason, deciding not to let me in to my blog for two days. *shakes a tiny fist* :) One of the things I was going to post was the next chapter of MAGIC & MANNERS, but because I couldn’t let people know here that it was going up, I didn’t, and now I feel that it’s past my appropriate window of opportunity, so the next chapter for Patreons will go up next week. :)…

so close, so far
Well, I was never gonna get 7500 words done today, and in the end I decided to make it a usual not-writing day because I have 3 writing days coming up and trying to kill myself getting it done today just seemed dumb.

mini-retreat
For Mother’s Day (it’s Mother’s Day today on this side of the pond) I got to take a mini writing retreat to Galway, where my sister’s musical was also premiering.

I’m terribly sorry, but I just do not, apparently, have the spoons to do a weekly post. From TIGANA (which is April’s book) onward I’m going to do a monthly post immediately after I finish reading the books, which will probably have no rhyme or reason to it as far as dates are…
Magic & Manners!
Are you a MAGIC & MANNERS Patron patron? Chapter 6 just went live for you! I’ll begin posting chapters on the mizkit website in about six weeks, so Patreon supporters will get to read the story before anyone else, as well as getting a complete copy of the e-book when it’s done! Head on over, pledge a dollar or a dime, get notified by email when a new chapter is posted! :)
