So my sister? Lives in the Torchwood Hub. Okay, not the one in Cardiff. But this is clearly an Australian outpost. She told me they found a pterodactyl when they moved in, so I was kind of expecting it. Especially after I confided this to her and admitted that they did in fact have a […]

I may have forgotten to mention it (because I’m still being alarmed that it’s July) but I’m leaving town today. I’ll be working while I’m away but changing time zones repeatedly may result in posts appearing on a more abstract than usual schedule. Me: You know how every time I go away I say more […]

This band does rock interpretations of folk songs and sea shanties and, well, they’re kind of awesome.

This last pass of the edit is annoying. I keep having to tell myself off. I’ll be cruising through a scene and I’ll hiccup over something and backtrack and glare at it. But it won’t be an easy fix. At this point things are either insanely minor, and I take care of them without even […]

Arkem: I’m having a “I’d rather be napping” day. Me: Aw. That was my yesterday. Although to be fair, I’ve only just woken up today and I’m not sure yet that I don’t regret it. The problem with being ridiculously sleep deprived is not that I can’t write. I write just fine when I’m out […]

I’m not leaving town for like three weeks, I don’t understand why my brain is trying to switch time zones in advance. It is driving me crazy. Er. Crazier.

I have around a quarter of the book left to edit at this point and my sidebar is full of these weird sarcastic notes to self. Last week when I was sick I wasn’t really focusing clearly enough to want to mess with the text so I just flipped through it and made comments. That’s […]
