Computers...

At the moment my computer is unuseable do to a lacking component part of attach computer to monitor.

It's in the mail.

So I should have my computer back, which will mean happiness for me.

The schedule says I'm writing When Angels Cry or Dusk Moth this month, however, I may change that to something else. I may write Merry Bones and the Taxidermy Prince instead. It's more festive I think.

Or something. Meanwhile, I have submitted Legion's Web to Immanion Press. They say they get back to every submission within a month, so...finger's crossed everyone.

I'd rather like that as a Christmas present I think. It's what I asked Santa for at least. (Yes, I am a total dweeb and wrote a letter to Santa. I asked for peace of mind and a publishing contract)

These things, we do them to remain sane.

In other news, I finished Nano. (whew)

The rest of the novel is, unfortunately, on the inaccessible computer at the moment, so the Fiction Press updates will have to wait till I get my part.

I've moved (last weekend) back to my home state and am currently job hunting. Opportunities are sparse, and I am car-less/license-less (hoping to correct the second at least) so it's somewhat difficult.

Well, that and my current location is in the middle of a corn field. All right, surrounded by corn fields. (A big thanks goes out to my copy editor and her family for letting me stay with them whilst I attempt to get on my feet)

The second issue, which feels much like a debut issue really, is coming up fast. Submissions close in nine days! It's due out January 14, and from the 28-30 the CFM staff will be at Ohayocon! (It's a Steampunk theme this year) lurking. If you spot us (we'll have badges on) you get a free issue of our e-magazine and a chance to win some fabulous prizes! (IE, Books!)

We'll be there all three days (albeit in different numbers each day as we all have different schedules), so keep an eye out.

I'll post a picture of our badges once they're made.

Well, that's all for now. Cheers and good luck to all of my fellow author hopefuls!
