I got a phone call from Kate Duffy *grin*

I’m not sure I was very coherent, at all.  Then technology conspired against me and I got cut off, lol

Anyway, what I can remember and now that I’ve stopped shaking so I can type, is that I was her second choice. (Congrats to Eve Powers for being the Editor’s Choice, btw)  I handled first person well and I seem to remember something about the world building and the spaceship.  She asked to see more stuff and I said Dark Host was already in New York (hopefully).  Her assistant will dig it out.

I’ll have to follow up with an email tomorrow to confirm exactly what I should do.  My mind had too much adrenalin and not even coherent thought rushing through it, lol

A week without a blog post. How bad am I? And how long does a week feel? lol

So news, news, news!

Well, the Brava Novella Contest has opened to voting.

to vote for me! hehe

Seriously, you get the chance to vote for up to three of your fav entries. As a guest, you can read the 20 finalists but you have to sign up (its free and painless…honest) to vote.

In other writing news, I sold Weaving Words to Samhain. *grin*, I have the first edits for The Honourable Lady and the print copies of Past Lies came yesterday. I pulled in my nerve and ran over to the library with a copy of it and a copy of Buying Mackenzie’s Baby. The librarian seemed very happy to take them *grin*

And other things. We have topsoil in the garden and yesterday I saved a frog from a magpie, lol
