erastes

Woot! Productive Erastes! Or perhaps over-productive Erastes.

Just finished "Hard & Fast" - a novella which I'm writing for a Sooper Sekrit project that I can't talk about yet, and sent it off to my co-conspirators. Those of you who have been keeping awake will remember that my protagonist is a wordy bugger and he's pushed the project up to 27,000 words. Hmm. I hope they like it, because it's very Regency (I hope) and not everyone's cuppa Lapsang Souchon. No Jargon though. I found lots of sites full of Jargon, because this is set in The Ton and would allow me to write all sorts of crap but I restrained myself. Geoffrey's been fighting in the wars since he was old enough to get himself killed and he's NOT a social butterfly and Adam is a bit of misfit - and crippled - I even refrained from bunging the phrase "the ton" in to show my readers that I knew my stuff. Hee. The Regency brigade will be confiscating my membership badge and snapping my quizzing glass in half. Here's hoping. :)

So - right now I have... *thinks* One novel, two novellas and one short story in limbo waiting for acceptances, and I need to write two more short stories by t'end of month. Then I can get back to Junction X which has been neglected for far too long. It's about a 17 year old boy having sex with a 35 year old man btw 6A, in case you are interested. No pictures though. (sadly)

I have been spending FAR too much time on LOLCats in the last couple of days. What a brilliant brilliant site.
