abracanabraOog. My aching head. Drank a whole lot last night at the CC with The Mad Scientist, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chadvalentine and opheliac_9. Am somewhat recovered after a BLT and coffee, and am now inhabiting the back room at Cahoots, doing wifi emailey stuff and eventually working on writing. I've got a strong desire to get "A Haunted Kiss" ready to ship out ASAP, because it's a ghost story, and this is the season for selling those. Ideally, I would have had it done and out the door last month, but I got just a leetle bit busy. So I need another editing run-through, and then it's off to play with the big boys (hopefully).
In other news, "Writ in Snowflakes and Sunshine" AKA "Ice Mother" is now up for editing on Critters. I haven't had much feedback on it yet, though, so I'm starting to get worried. Meep.
