Further steps in world domination

[erastes]

Standish: I've heard from the second editor and she should have the revisions to me this week. I'm very pleased about that, can't really believe that it's happening, even now. I suppose I won't believe it for sure until I'm holding the book in my hand. God though, doesn't it take ages? I suppose most authors just have to put the old book to bed and get on with the next one.

I've also created a wikipedia page for Erastes and joined the Historical Novel Society!

I've also done a good few submissions in the last week or so, as well as my sci-fi piece to Distant Horizons, I made the deadline for "Outlook Arizona" with a very angsty 7k word story, and have submitted to bookpuppy.com and The Angry Poet.

Busy Erastes!

Next deadline is "Best Date Ever" which could be difficult as most of my dates have been unmitigating disasters. I spose any date with a shag could be called "Best"

Oooooh exciting. I didn't realise you got a different editor for the second edit, that's got to be good.

How's Transgressions coming along? Not that I'm being pushy or anything, but FOR GOD'S SAKE WOMAN, YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME LIKE THIS! *ahem* Yes, in your own time and all...

There's THREE edits all in all. THREE!!! with three different people!

I'm not complaining - it's a nice sign that they are so professional and want it to be as perfect as they can make it.

I'm moving along with trans, I promise! have done about half of chapter 28.

PS - fancy coming to this with me in September?

I thought of going for Saturday when it's about 20 quid...

I won't be offended if you say no...

That's if I'd lost enough weight by then...

Oooooh totally! And YAY Nottingham is one of like three places outside of a ten mile radius from my house that I'm not scared to drive to since my brother lives there.

You do realise I'll be the size of a small country by then, right? But it's all good, I can probably get us out of having to queue for anything :D

Brent (the Angry Poet publisher) accepted some of my works too, and I advise you not to let a lot of time pass by between e-mails. He definitely won't get back to you after the "this is good, I'll take it" e-mail if you don't egg him on a bit.

(And don't accept his excuses. Seriously, he's not easy to work with.)

That's interesting! It's for the contest, so I won't hear until after the end date I guess
