Cut 3K from FIREBIRD DECEPTION. I think I can replace 500 word with a new scene, but mostly the stuff that went was meandering cruft and didn’t properly advance the story (it advanced it, but not the way I wanted it to), so despite the fact that I’m back down beneath 50K, I’m happier with it. And I oughta be able to make up the 3K pretty easily. All is well. Had a lovely walk with Dad, and now I’m trying to figure out what to do with myself. miles…
wow. o.o
Wow. Despite being light-headed from the cold medicine (I do not remember cold medicine doing this to me thirty pounds ago. I noticed it did it to me in December and March when I had colds, and I can’t figure out if it’s always done it to me and I’m just now actively noticing it or if it’s because there’s significantly less of me to spread the same amount of drug through), I got chapter one of COYOTE DREAMS finished, and I like it. 1400 words today, which is not…

Between those revision/edity things and the proposal due on June 1 and the book due on July 1, it is *very clear*…
Did I mention…
Did I mention I now have a Wikipedia entry? A splended fellow who found me through Jim Butcher created it a little while back. I thought it was outrageous cool. :) Some way cool news on the publicity front this morning, but I don’t have all the details hammered out yet, so I’m simply going to taunt you by mentioning it thusly and then saying no more. No more!
