Comicon is happening in two weeks. I have a booklet that I’m waiting for the publisher to send to me, which will have a short story (Custer’s First Stand) and the first chapter of War Mage<\/em>. I hope that comes in before Comicon.<\/p>\n

I have 20 more copies of Homecoming<\/em> on its way for Comicon, and I’ve still got the five copies each of Building Baby Brother<\/em> and Best Intentions<\/em> to try and sell.<\/p>\n

My cards say I’ll do well, but not blockbuster well; my expectation is to sell five copies. I hope I can do that.<\/p>\n

Grimaulkin<\/em> is still going. I had a mini-climax and expect to do about another 10-20K words after that. I hope to finish it in time for Comicon. Not that I have to, but NaNoWriMo starts on Tuesday, and I don’t want to put Grim aside for that. I don’t think I’ll be able to succeed with NaNo this year, but my own personal NaNo happened to succeed (as of last week, I was 50K words, and as of today it’s 53,000 words.). So I’ll order the NaNo winner t-shirt.<\/p>\n

Still upset that I lost my novel notebook. I keep a notebook on the novels I write, with brainstorms and notes on things that I write. As a discovery writer, I need to refer back to things here and there and instead of going in the document, I have a notebook with notes of things I created on the fly. I had it two weeks ago, and when I went looking for it last week, I couldn’t find it. So I created a new one, but I really miss my old one. Oh, well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
