(The Zune actually counts for my early birthday present for myself, really, because if
I don't buy myself something for my birthday, no one will. Sad but true. Anyway.)
So, by project:
-- Did not get to finish or even start my
vampirebigbang story. Which sort of sucks but considering my work schedule the last month or two is entirely unsurprising.
-- Did not get to finish editing GPW by the first like I wanted. What I really think I need with that is to print the whole damn thing out and start mapping out the story by taping scenes up on the wall and figuring out what's missing. I'm a lot better at this sort of story organization when I get a bit tactile with the whole thing.
-- Heroine Addiction is still in editing limbo right now (have personally whacked it with a stick, am waiting for agent to be able to whack it with a stick), but what with the lack of free time I've had lately I'm not angsting over it or anything.
-- A Lousy Pun About Death, Or Possibly The Weather is actually a file in my WIPs folder. And it has words in it. They will probably not be staying, but they're in there. I need to pick up some printer ink because I want to print out a character chart to work on Opal, my main character, because I don't have the precise and definite picture of her that I want.
-- This Way To The Egress is on hold, but that's just because everything is on hold.
-- I need to rifle through my WIPs because I honestly can't remember what half of them are. I have complete and total brain fry ... have I mentioned that?
So basically, there is not enough free time in the world. Blaaaaaaaargh.
On the bright side, there is
criticalfandom, which you should all go join. I read the userinfo and spent a giddy moment petting the screen. :D
