Well, that didn’t suck. That’s pretty much all I’ve got to say. It wasn’t great, but it was pretty good. In other news, Jai and I went for a nice 4 mile walk this afternoon with Chantico, and she (Chantico) was very good, so I’m pleased with her. It was hot out! And we went for ice cream after Buffy, and Keith who’s the great guy who works at Baskin-Robbins, whom we hadn’t seen for several months, noticed and admired my hair. Go Keith. :) miles to Rivendell: 90.7 ytd…
whee
Whee. Package off to the EEA, another letter written to send out next week, and, well, that’s really about all I know. It’s very very nice out. There are birds twittering all over the place. Some of them zoomed by the window, nearly causing Lucy to launch herself off the computer monitor and into the window. She went *TWITCH*! Waiting to hear from Jai whether we’re going walking this afternoon or not. I’ll probably go bike riding if not, but maybe after Buffy I’ll take Chanti out for a walk,…
there. less lame now.
Ok, I feel slightly less lame now. I’ve sent out, er, well, packaged up, anyway, the S&3 for US to send out to the Ethan Ellenberg Agency, and… they claim a 4-6 week turnaround on their site, although that’s under ‘international submissions’, so I don’t know if that’s for everything or, well, not. So theoretically I’ll hear from them around the beginning of July. Theoretically I’ll hear from the Donald Maass agency early next week. God knows when I’ll hear from Tor. This is all very nerve-wracking. :)
a little dead in the brain
A little dead in the brain today. Too many meetings and weird projects coming up. Trying to wrap my mind around them. I feel like I’m trying to grab at warm wriggly eels. Slip slip slip. A second letter-to-an-agent ready to go this morning. I need to get a little more aggressive about this, but if I manage a letter a week, that’s not bad. I … nope, no brain. More later.
fwoosh
Busy evening. Took a 40 minute nap because, well, 5am rising time, blah. Then wrote 2340 words (but who’s counting?) and futzed around, even considered going to bed. However, then I put the dogs out and it was insanely beautiful out, so I got my stuff together and went on a bike ride after all. 13 miles. Cool. :) ytd wordcount: 134,500 miles to Mordor: 214.5
