I saw this over at League of Reluctant Adults and thought what a great way to procrastinate! I think I’ll do one too!: a summary of my TBR list. I’ve gotten mine down to around 40 books, so this isn’t an entirely impossible meme to play around with. (Mind you, I’ve done that by setting a moratorium on buying new books last *August* until we had at least half the TBR shelf cleared. I’ve bought _no books_ (um, except the 3 I got Trent to buy for me in the…
oops.
I started making icons last night before “The Invisibles” came on tv, and came back upstairs to finish one off before bed after the show, and, er, note to self: I should not start making icons at 10 at night.

They’re goodies for rhienelleth and for zootdingo, mostly. :)
the hard part
I have rewritten the hard part! I– …holy shit, guys. I just got email from my editor. You know how I asked if, y’know, you could try to send THE QUEEN’S BASTARD back to print before the end of May? You did it. It’s going back to press, “based on early good sales.” Thank you. Thank you, thank you, *thank you*, all so very much. I’m genuinely sitting here stunned and teary-eyed and sniffly, because wow. *Thank* you. Um. Jeez. Uh. What was I talking about? Rewriting the hard part!…

I’ve spent the last couple hours doing *work*, but this is “answer craploads of email and go through a million files” kind of work, which is just as wearying and time-consuming as actually writing, but doesn’t end up with more pages piled up on– OH IT’S WEDNESDAY! HOORAY! I *thought* it was Wednesday, but then I got it in my head it was Thursday! I have a whole extra day! Wow, that makes me feel better! Ahem. –anyway.…
100% geek, coming up
I have remembered that making icons was going to be one of my hobbies. I actually really like making them, even though I’m not nearly the artist some people are. That’s okay. Iron Man icons behind the cut.
