thus spake the weekend...
Jun. 7th, 2009 05:22 pmWhen two different readers hit point in story and make 'not sure that works' frown, you need to reconsider that point. Bah. But a small tweak opened up an interesting new direction, so grrrrrrr to
taikyoyo and
agamisu and thank you. This story will be done this week, or... well, it will be done. Grrr.
Also: LAG-at-lauraannegilman-dot-net is now an operative e-mail. I repeat, it is an Operative Email. All author queries should now go henceforth. And there was much f*****g rejoicing.
Weekend Accomplishments:
Got rid of clutter in apartment, either by tossing or intra-family freecycling.
Saw many family members at Celebration, felt no urge to throttle any of them (win!)
Made travel arrangements for WorldCon. [this train is bound for worldcon, this train is bound for... stop me before I filk again!]
Worked on Stuff for Flesh & Fire launch.
Figured out why short story has been giving me fits, second iteration.
Wrestled with ()*&*^%^ Google and DreamHost e-mail interfaces that are refusing to give up info (and DreamHost tech support FTW!).
Actually exercised.
Plotted out week's work and social obligations.
Prepped for a Skype conference tonight on an ongoing cat-herding project that will either be lots of fun and profit, or will break me entirely...
UnAccomplished: Too many things to think about without bursting into tears. Also, not sure if this counts as an Accomplishment or not. I think I need to go make dinner and take a nap before the Skypeing...
EtA: ice tea is really good for keeping the meerkat hydrated. Her preferred tea for icing is also really tasty. And... it is herbal. Drinking it all day = mad craving for caffeine to offset the damned headache, come 6pm. Ooops.
