I just realized Monday is the first of February, and therefore the day the second chance to buy “Hot Time” is supposed to launch. I don’t know how to make a Paypal button that hooks up to an instant download. Does one have to be a merchant type on Paypal to do that? (Because if one does, I’m going to have to just set it up as a donate button and manually email everybody who buys a copy of the story their copy, because paying for the merchant services seems…
mighty metrics
Ted and I got a pretty early start today, so we had a wander around the University Cork campus, which is lovely, before we went our separate ways, himself to game and myself to write.

Got the copyedits off a little after noon today, after emailing my editor the typed-in form of them, which really should mean they can work off that email if they so desire. So that’s sorted. Spent the remainder of the afternoon working on the DEMON HUNTS AAs, which I got halfway through. I’ll finish tomorrow, and get them typed in and sent off.
