Weekend wrap-up

I didn’t do as much writing this weekend as I’d wanted to — I only ended up with about 5000 words. But in addition to that, I also typed about 5000 words, so it wasn’t a total waste. That brings the total of new words for the month to 24,000. I wanted to do 30,000. I don’t think I’ll make it. But I think I did really very well, considering that there was a week there when I wasn’t writing (being in CA for the day job) as well as a con.

Today, I’m sick. Not a horribly bad cold, but bad enough that I’m sneezing and brain-dead. No writing today, I’m afraid. Hopefully tomorrow though. In the meanwhile, I have episodes of Dexter to watch. As well as Babylon 5.

In other exciting news, I just received my contributor’s copies of Dark Arts, an anthology of horror stories edited by John Pelan. I can’t tell you when I sold this story — seems like ages and ages ago — quite possibly back in the 90s. I’m happy to see it in print finally.

Ugh. I’m going back to bed for a nap. I hope ya’ll are having a lovely week. There was snow here (yes, in Seattle.) I drove through a lot of it with the lovely schnaucl, to the Bare Naked Ladies’ concert. The snow was mostly stopped by the time the concert was over, which made for a much better drive home. The concert was really fun, though I wish I’d felt better and could have enjoyed it more.
