… so, I was sitting around last night after I’d finally finished tidying up the Afterword for The Girl with No Hands & Other Tales, doing what I usually do which is thinking I’m not doing enough as a writer.
Then the reasonable part of me appeared (she makes occasional cameos) and took stock. She said “Errr, have a think about what you’ve got for 2010 so far.”
So, I did:
1. 1 x short story collection: Sourdough & Other Stories from Tartarus Press
2. 1 x short story collection: The Girl with No Hands & Other Tales from Ticonderoga Publications
3. 1 x short story Brisneyland by Night in Twelfth Planet Press’ Sprawl anthology
4. 1 x short story Genevieve and the Dragon in FableCroft Press’ Worlds Next Door
5. 1 x short story The February Dragon (with LL Hannett) in Ticonderoga’s Scary Kisses anthology
6. 2 x entries in Ann and Jeff VanderMeer’s Steampunk Reloaded Compendium (also with LL Hannett)
7. 1 x reprint of The Jacaranda Wife in FableCroft Press’ Australis Imaginarium
So, I think I’m allowed to have a margarita and a bowl of pretzels and sit on the back deck for a little while with my feet up.
Then I’ll go back inside and start the next 10k, which will see me finish a first draft of the novella Ragged Run.
It’s all okay.
Snaps for Ange!!
That is awesome stock for the year. If this is only March, the rest of 2010 can only be good!
Ta, lovely.
… I’m impressed.
🙂
Like I don’t feel slack enough already, go and rub my nose it. You horrible, horrible person. I hate you!
(Well, not really. Go, you Star. 2010 is yours!) Looking forward to your books).
Well, I work hard and arrange my life to suit my writing … don’t be too jealous, other things suffer! Trust me 🙂
