truepenny: artist's rendering of Sidneyia inexpectans (shalott)
I need to write a Storytellers Unplugged post today, and I cannot for the life of me think of a topic. Anyone who wants to offer one will be hailed as a Hero of the Revolution. Anyone whose idea I actually use gets a statue in their honor in the Square of the Glorious Dawn.

Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] sasha_feather and [livejournal.com profile] jesse_the_k and the two other people whose LJ names I don't know for coming to the Q&A yesterday. I appreciate an audience. *g*

I am told that I have four stories listed in the Honorable Mentions of The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror XXI: "The Bone Key," "Listening to Bone," "Somewhere Beneath Those Waves Was Her Home," and "Under the Beansidhe's Pillow." Two of those are Artist's Challenge pieces (thank you, [livejournal.com profile] elisem!). The other two are from The Bone Key, and since "Drowning Palmer" actually made the cut for YBFHXX, I guess I can feel pretty good about that collection of stories.

I am Eeyore today. With possibility of emo. I find this very tiresome.

Also? I do not need to dream about being exasperated with people. In the unlikely event that I have an exasperation deficiency . . . well, that's what Al Gore invented the Internet for.

Q: spoilers for The Mirador )

The poll winner seems to be The Emperor of the Elflands. Which, by a happy coincidence, is--of the three--the closest to being finished. So I guess I'd better get to work on that GAPING PLOT HOLE. Tra la la lally.

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] cristalia has saved my bacon this month. However, since I'll have to do this again next month (and the month after that and so on and so forth), please feel free to offer more suggestions for things you'd like to see me write about.

ETA 2: and blogged

Heather Corinna--she who took my fabulous author photo, if you're playing along at home--has posted the incredibly beautiful pictures she took at Fourth Street of Elise's jewelry and their people.

Now that I've picked my jaw back up off the floor, here are the links to the photos of me (as much for my reference as anything else):

Healing Is Not About Pretty (this one has at least three stories in it)--and again (and, okay, how phenomenal a photographer is Heather? she can make the fact that I have my eyes closed look intentional)

Why Do You Linger?--and again

Rhino Carries the Moon (I love the fact that I'm out of focus and distracted--I think my hair is coming down--but Rhino is sharp and perfect and beautiful)--and again, this time with me as the distrait Gothic governess--and one more time

Three Letters from a Teddy Bear on Veterans' Day--and again

Sidhe Tigers

Draco campestris

Somewhere Beneath Those Waves Was Her Home (which--hey!--I just mentioned earlier)--and again

Three Letters from the Queen of Elfland
