The NC Writers’ Network Fall Conference is coming up in November, which means I have to get my heinie in gear NOW, as anything for critiquing, master classes, and the manuscript mart is due in like two weeks!
Having a deadline is good for me. I’ve been ignoring my fiction for way too long, although if I don’t start writing more of my ideas down, I’m going to start vomiting words. Which isn’t pretty. Or fun for those who are nearby when the flood erupts.
So, I might post bits and pieces of work for your delectation, critiquing, etc., over the next few days. I’ll try to give you the sexy bits, as I know that’s why most of you visit EM.
A few random weekend quotes:
My boy: “You’re the best Mommy I’ve ever had!”
My girl, after a egg meets sperm discussion that she initiated: “I understand, Mommy, but I think I’m going to keep this a big secret.”
Two minutes later: “Do you think the Tooth Fairy will remember to come tonight?”
(Yep, the TF fell down on the job a couple nights ago. She’d had two glasses of wine before bedtime).

Wait, is this the fall confrence you were trying to convince me I should go to next year, last year??
I’ve always suspected the tooth fairy was a drunk.
I mean, seriously, doesn’t climbing into someone’s room while they’re asleep and exchanging cash for a piece of hard, calcified tissue that has recently seen fit to remove itself from said person’s body sound like something you’d do after a LOT of alcohol? Maybe even as a dare?
That tooth fairy is a lush!
is it in Avl again?
No, Theseus, it’s in Durham this year.
Autumn, you were in PA last year this time, so that wouldn’t have made sense, would it?
