- 19:41 @nbrooks It is contract time for Kestrel reprints! Needs new title. Boo. We'll think of something. #
- 19:43 @BrianKeene Justin Beaver, er Beiber, is the Flavor of the Week in preteen bubblegum pop. His singing apparently makes my father miss exits. #
- 19:44 @Dev_in_Pink Congo: good book, lousy movie. #
- 19:46 @nbrooks Get your Bettie Page self online, girl. We gotta brainstorm. Fast title and contracts=fast edits=fast release=fast money. #
- 19:47 @Dev_in_Pink the book--and Tim Curry--are the only reasons I saw the movie. You want good Curry, see Colour of Magic. From Redbox. #

Jun. 29th, 2010 08:36 pmWork: not too awful. I'm expecting a rough couple days Wed and Thurs.
Writing: Nothing new. Edited 8 chapters of Privateer's Treasure, formerly Kestrel on the Horizon. Apparently Torquere and Ellora have opposite rules for comma usage. Am embarassed by the sheer number of typos. Also turned in paperwork for Amber Quill. Will mail EC contracts Thurs after Library.
Mudd News: He had to go to work today. Apparently the local Break & Enter gang targeted the school. They had been stashing their stuff at the abandoned jail. They were caught because they vandalized the principal's office. Apparently these idiots never learned that glitter NEVER comes out. They tracked it to another crime scene and were still glittering when the cops caught up. They'd also been tagging their crimes with their initials. I can't make this shit up.
Kids in good shape.
Scent of the day: Mad Hatter. A gentlemen's lavender-citron cologne unhinged by the feral pungence of black musk and a paroxysm of pennyroyal.
Card of the Day: 10 of Swords. It really is as bad as you think, it's probably worse. But check your attitude and make sure you;re not being a martyr.
