is up and running. It’s an open community, created largely for my ease in harrassing the Wrimos I know into doing their words in November 2006. Feel free to join. :) has some wise things to say about vanity publishing. (She links to my earlier comments about getting published in general in that post. It all gets very circular!) I’m about a third of the way through the COYOTE revisions. I think I’m slowly improving it. Perhaps tomorrow I’ll manage fewer blog postings and more revising. :) (For some reason…

my friends RULE FROM ORBIT
Oh, thank God, posted so now I can. You know a few weeks ago I sent you to read her chapter in the contest she was participating in? She just won the grand prize.

(Also, it gives me a really *easy* way to ride people about getting their words done!) So: In something that has nothing to do with that, my sister’s just informed me that her eldest has just informed *her* that he’s “so not impressed with her.” *laughs and laughs and laughs* She doesn’t…
I think…
I think the only thing wrong with COYOTE DREAMS is that is not…clear enough. I know what I’m trying to do, and I know what legends I’m drawing on, but I don’t think quite enough of that made it onto the page. I’ve got about a hundred pages left to go through at this point, and I’m pretty sure I still need to write one more chapter between the current penultimate chapter and the final one. I suspect, if I can figure out how to do it, that’ll take care…
