I have just turned in HOUSE OF CARDS. That’s the fourth manuscript I’ve turned in this year. I have one more to go, and one more revision (I’ve done two this year). You see that icon there? With the kitty cat with its face all mashed into the floor and its arms all spread out? That is me. That is so totally me. I just need to pull another 50K on THE QUEEN’S BASTARD out of my … mind. I swear to freaking god, I am taking six weeks off…

photo shoot
Posted several photos from this morning’s shoot here. Stupid gallery put a mid-sized version in between the thumbnails and the full-sized, so they’re all clickable for a larger version. Mom thinks that set would make a fine 13-month calendar (and though I’d switch one or two of the pictures out, I think she might be right). That might be fun to do. Oh, hey, I can do a poll.

We haven’t (we don’t even own a VCR anymore), so I thought I’d throw…
better.
Better day so far today, not that I’ve gotten as far as, oh, say, WRITING anything yet. I went down into Cobh with Ted and did a foggy-morning photo shoot before the post office opened. I think I’ve got some nice stuff, and I’m thinking maybe I’ll post a gallery of them instead of putting them up on kitsnaps in slow motion, because I feel like showing off. Heh. Anyway, once the PO opened I paid bills and walked home, which wasn’t a bad way to spend the morning. I’ve…
:p
This has been a suckful day. There was nothing *bad* about it, exactly. I just feel like I spent too much money and too much time to too little end. I got a raincoat which, at €100 because it was half off, sure as shit better be adequate, but it’s not what I wanted. The trivial fact that I doubt they make what I want in a raincoat is beside the point. I spent a long time standing there trying to decide if there was any chance at *all* of…
