not dead yet

I’m still alive; I’ve just been busy. Halloween is a madhouse time of year when you write horror, but that’s just the way it works (and really? It’s an awful lot of fun). But by way of catching this page up in a hasty manner — here’s the skinny, the down-low, the scoop, even, on the last week:


  • Dear Mr. Schafer declared himself “happy” with Draft One of Those Who Went Remain There Still, which is a great relief — as you might imagine. Eventually we shall chat about notes and such, and I will give him a Draft Two. But for right now, I am devoting all creative energy to the Fathom revisions, which shall zip their way back to NYC by the end of this month.

  • I had a most productive phone call with Liz, and I’m pretty sure that there’s an excellent chance that Fathom won’t suck. But it needs some work; and now that I’ve freshly handed in my most recent freelance assignment, I can give that manuscript my undivided attention for a little bit.

  • I am besotted with the new themes on LiveJournal, and I’ve revamped my daily blog accordingly. Since people keep asking about my new default icon over there, let me just say that it comes from this image — a caricature/illustration of yours truly by the marvelous and talented Daniel Krall. It was created to accompany a very kind review of the Eden novels (review by Adrienne Martini) for Baltimore’s City Paper.

Okay. That’s all I’ve got for now. For more regular updates on subjects more diverse, keep an eye on the LJ. I tend to pay more attention to that page than this one.
