Yes, I’m still a slacker. But this is a really good query! Honest! Quality is better than quantity, although in an ideal world there would be both. I’m also considering not bothering with the SASEs in my script queries. It would be different if they...

Script Frenzy’s teaser site is up! I’m so there!

Editing is still more fun than drafting. What do you know? Whee, edits! Well, obviously, there’s going to be the point where I go blind. Hopefully that won’t happen for awhile, since I didn’t look at it for three months. Some observations: The...

Jen has a “post the first line of five works in progress” meme. What the hell, I’ll play, although I don’t really have five things in progress at the moment. I’ll include recent stuff. The Wasicu towers still exist, rising up out of the...

NaNoEdMo starts in two days. So why am I excited about Script Frenzy instead? I used to love editing and agonize over first drafts. I think NaNoWriMo cured me of the agonizing, so maybe that’s part of it. I have no idea what I’m going to do for Script...

I just dropped the hurricane story into the Critters queue. Word count: 10,946. It’ll probably grow after Critters is done with it. I also put a warning on the story for “content that may offend some readers and some *@(#&@% swearing.”...

The hurricane story is approaching a condition where it’s ready for Critters. It may be ready now, but Brian said he’d peek at it and tell me what he thought of the changes. It behooves me to dawdle, because it’ll take about a month to get through...

My online critique group is oddly silent about my under 500 word flash fic. Perhaps they’re struck dumb by its brilliance. Or its badness. Heh. For NaNoWriMo this year, I’m considering going Greek. I have an idea I’ve been kicking around for...

I accidentally printed out the wrong script to go to Scriptapalooza. (Yeah, I’ve had a hard month at work.) Maybe I should send it to Austin after all. It’s been rewritten since they saw it, after all. Unless anyone can suggest someplace better. The floor...

I think I just wrote 423 words of flash fic. That would certainly make up for the 10,231 word story (and still growing) I did last month. Speaking of the hurricane story, I don’t think it’s ready for critique yet. There are still a couple of things I need...
