Woo hoo! That's awesome
I have to write a query.
But, but. Youre published. Queries are a thing of the past. Youre in the club.
I have to write a query.
Just use my standard Q:
"Dear Agent/Editor/Publishers,
I have a book and it is guuuuuuuud. Lots of liquid hot monkey lovin' and the whacking of some hideous bad dudes.
You're welcome.
CM, The Lord of Catan"
BOOM!!!
Queried!
These are far more exciting than long meetings with meshing personalities.
True.
Thank goodness for iFonz, though.

If you get that to work, I promise you all the banana and nutella cake you can eat, forever. Also, any other sorts of cakes I make.
That? Is freakin' AWESOME! Oh, I'm so glad for you guys.

Yay! Queries! \o/
In other news, my cats are weirdos. Fez has suddenly decided he doesn't want to eat if he can't be right next to Sophie while he does it. So, he comes over and starts scoffing her food. I tried to get him to go back to his own dish, but he used selective hearing on me. It was super effective. So, I brought his dish over and he was like, 'Oh. I shall eat from that now that it's right here. Isn't this pleasant?' and then they both each take a bite from their own dish, then from the other's until it's all gone. *shakes head*
Also... I wrote about 100 words today while I was waiting for the backups to run. w00t! It's not much, but considering I haven't put pen to paper, metterforickly, except to write crits for at least two weeks, it's a good start.
Hope you're all having a good afternoon/evening!

I have a phone call about a potential position at 4:30.
I hate this part of the job hunt. Mostly because it involves my evil nemesis, the phone.

On the flip side, summer evenings are SUPER long. Just sayin'
The aim of the game is to get one co-worker to leap across the table at the other co-worker, snarling with rage and screaming obscenities as they stab their colleague repeatedly in the face with a biro.
This has the added bonus of effectively ending the meeting immediately.
Evening folks. MrMacologist has come back from work and is enthusiastically napping next to me. The guy is like a cat. He can fall asleep anywhere, anytime.
Whut up?
Yeah, that lack of sunlight thing can get a bit depressing after a while.

See? The lil' guy is infectious! It's his enthusiasm. He really gives that "gah!" his all...Well, I mainly brought it up so I could use it too.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to subtly stoke the fires of conflict as much as possible whilst maintaining a facade of simple, polite interest and difference of opinion.

The world of subs finds balance again.
Expect a no response to at least one of todays. The world of subs has a black hole.
Waiting on eleventeen partial submissions, and the wait is killing me. MUST. Give. It. Time.

So, good news!
I may have some financial relief coming. Should be official soon.
I have a vision board. I think it will take at least two years, but then I'll be doing Equine Chiro, acupuncture, massage, Centered riding lessons, and other soothing to the soul things and will quit the day job. Maybe not all at once, but between all those I should have more than enough work to support myself one I get rolling.
I have books coming via mail and courses to sign up for, and theres a conference in Hershey in August.
My birdies are all happy and cute and doing well

Well yeah, especially since you're giving him papers stating that you are terminating him.
So awesome!
So Little Kricket is developing a love for monster trucks. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not.
