taking stock
Jan. 1st, 2012 11:15 amAs the new year begins, my story "Blue Lace Agate" is live at Lightspeed. (Author interview here.) "Blue Lace Agate" is chronologically the first story about Mick and Jamie, the protagonists of "A Night in Electric Squidland" and "Impostors" (in Somewhere Beneath Those Waves), and I'm delighted that it has finally found a home.
ETA: Also, Mateusz Skutnik has a charming little New Year's game which I commend to your attention.
Although I don't usually write year-in-review posts, after the year I've just had, I really do feel the need to sit down and take stock (4,691 irradiated haggis, check).
So.
( 2011 in bullet points )
As 2012 begins, I'm going to full-time as a database thrall, and we'll see what effect that has on my health and my writing.
Goals for 2012 (note to self: do not mistype as "gaols," please) include:
Happy New Year! May 2012 be a better year for all of us than 2011!
