Aaaaaand for my 1500th MT entry, a rejection letter from Luna on HEART OF STONE. Too romancey. Not surprised; that’s what I thought they’d say, but as Angie said, fie on them!

It is not pleasant, but nothing he writes is. It *is* beautiful.…

Talked to my artist about artwork for Chance; she’s going to try to finish up the last 2 pages (of the first 5). I’m going to submit to Image — well. That’ll depend on whether she’s up for doing a piece of cover art, probably, and I’m going to pitch it to Terry Moore because it can’t /hurt/. :) If I had time/money/resources/a brain? I might try to go…
