Writing Update

I’ve been meaning to write up this blog post, but life has gotten in the way. Per usual.

I had a short story accepted for publication, which I’m super excited about. It involves magic and tattoos and shape-shifting. Rawr! More to come as it goes through the process and I feel more secure squealing about it. ...and unlike my previous published story, I’m actually super excited about this one and have already started on a “Christmas” follow-up story that is MUCH sexier than the first one. ...which is why I’m not writing it at work O.O

Work, job, and reviewing has kept me busy, but I’m trying to set aside time every Tuesday for writing, plus squeezing it in whenever else I can (aka, have energy for it). I have plans for participating in Camp NaNoWriMo in August to get done the re-write of Clockwork Lives, and July I want to finish up 2011’s NaNo project with some scenes I belated realized are missing and expanding some information I just glossed over (important character develop, that doesn’t need to be shown, does it? Oh shit, it does?...)

Which gets me to September when I want to dig into a story idea I have for a submission due November 1. Yep, cutting it close. I may switch the NaNo project out for this one if the muses feel more in line, but we’ll see.

So I have a ton of ideas in the fire (or sitting just outside the fire, waiting for me to light some matches) and I’m looking forward to putting them down on paper (err, files?), though I’m sure I’ll complain enough about it once I get into it.

And that’s it for the moment. Time to put the nose to the grindstone and write about some sexy men!

Rough life, I know.
