OK–i'm posting here for now

I have this account set up, and I've added it to my Live Writer client, so I'll crosspost to my Livejournal and my blog (that gets picked up by various other places). I don't know if i have the energy to seek out all my friends here, so I just hope they find me, so I can friend back immediately.

News: I has some.

• I'm going to be Guest Blogger at Unusual Historicals next week and will be giving away stuff, so watch out for that. LInKS when I have them
• Muffled Drum got the most a-maz-ing review from MizLove and Crew. Not only got the Golden Nib Award (I can call myself an award winning author, yes?)

but the reviewer was absolutely blown away by the book. I made her cry more than once, and this pleased me muchly. If I can touch people in that way, then I'm doing something right.

One of the very best books I’ve ever read in my life. Staggeringly brilliant on so many levels, it suited me more than perfectly. I adored it. I can’t really say much more than that without the knot of emotions I thought I’d buried when I finished the book slamming back. I don’t think I can handle their return at the moment. Buy it and love it—but be prepared to be dragged through a gamut of emotions. Tissues nearby would be good.

Strong praise! Thank you, Miz Love.

What else? My report on the GLBT UK MEET Is posted and is here in case you missed it. (Link goes to my blog, not Livejournal) Plans are already afoot for next year (which will have to be earlier, or later due to the Olympics – so I'll update you with news on that when we have it.

Oh and finally – This is the kind of noise pollution I have to put up with. It's lucky the Snucius are entirely silent, but they probably think she does the talking for all of them. She'd just been fed, it's not cold, so I have NO CLUE what she wanted here, but she does this all the time!

Wow, that's a brilliant review alright :) I've got to agree, I think it's one of your best. I loved it.

thank you dear - I don't know - i think it's probably the most "ROMANcEY" I've done, but that was kind of deliberate. But then, ones newest should always be ones best!!

I don't know why the video didn't load... tries again...

You make me cry frequently. I don't see you lauding it on your blog. :P

Not that I am surprised, btw. You's a good writer-thing.

SOOOPER review, though I feel it's a little too harsh on Earnst. He was grasping but gave good value :D. And quite right - the story does tug on the heart strings. The thing I liked most about it is a spoiler so I won't say here.

Lili is a noisy cat. Very pretty, though.

I agree, I like him, but then I do tend to like my horrible characters. :D and THERE aRe So many!
