good mail day

Goodness. We got a whole slew of mail this morning. I got a birthday card from the Lees, and what I suspect is a gift from , because I don’t know anybody else who would send me copies of James Marsters’ Civilized Man and “Words and Music” CDs. :) Plus I know she was shopping at that site not long ago. *grin* Thank you! I will listen to it, er, maybe while I’m writing, but I actually don’t think Nook has any CD-playing software. Hm! I also got what I…

good news, bad news

Good news: I’ve written 4300 words today. Bad news: only 1300 of them have been on HEART OF STONE. The rest have been…I struggle with what to call it.

I swear I’ll go watch some LFN after this and stop spamming the flist, but I just got email that the interview I mentioned a month or so back has been posted, so I thought I’d, er, well, spam the flist and let you know. , you’d specifically wanted to know when that was up, so there ya go! Fittingly, there’s an X-Men geek question in that interview. :)
