Get me, I'm a minion!
Yes, it's true, I'm officially one of Shakespeare's Minions. Really, deep down, I always have been. Still, the validation is nice.
I have been working, despite the lack of posting and the low word count off to the left there. I've got about four chapters of The Host left to read through and make notes on. The plan is to wrap that up tonight at Write Club. I have a ton of notes so far, of things to change, things to fix, things to add -- I've got two subplots and several scenes for existing subplots that need to be mixed in for the second draft. I think I have my work cut out for me, but I also think I'm still well on track to have a decent second draft by September -- at which point I start looking for an agent, oh my.
In other news, "All the Lonely People" came back to me from Weird Tales after about six weeks, along with a rather rude note. At least it wasn't a form, right? I've been bad though, I haven't sent either that or "Midsummer" back out yet, mostly because I've been too lazy to go buy postage. "Lonely People" needs some serious tweaking though.
