Sunday Small Talk

Not a lot to say. It’s been a slow week (or two) in writing. I’m still working on camp nano and I’m sure I’ll finish. However, half of it (and the one I’m working on now) is under my other pen name and is due in 10 days. Yikes. I’m hoping to finish it tonight.

I did finish the first round of edits for Purrfect Holidays for DSP’s Christmas anthology. I also had it sensitivity read by my friend, Annie who has retinitis pigmentosa and a guide dog like the main character.

I’m sitting in a good place with the solarpunk story too as that deadline is coming up.

I’m also working on a fanfic. Yes that seems trivial but I started it 15 years ago and in the light of the potential Buffy reboot, it’s time to finish it. As for that reboot, I wish I knew if it was just something new in the Buffyverse (which I would be all for) or if it’s a straight up reboot (which I am so sick of and won’t be watching).

Here’s two weeks worth of writing links
