Project and laptop updates

[anthimeria]

I didn't want a whole month to go by between posts, but with my laptop still out of comission I've been using the work laptop--sparingly--and focusing on writing.

Skywatch: working on a query letter, researching agents. Almost finished with Draft IX.

Possible New YA Sci-Fi Book: in worldbuilding/character building/researching stage.  Will post more info if it gets past this stage into real outlining--that's always the test of whether I'll actually attempt the book.

Moxie: worldbuilding and character building, going slowly.  Researching, also slowly.  This series is still pretty far out there in terms of when I intend to start focusing on it.  It's like a snowball being rolled around a yard full of wet snow: Right now it's throwing-sized, with just my main character's bio, rough sketches of her world, and vague plans for a series.  By the time I'm ready to outline the first book, the metaphorical snowball should be five or six feet in diameter.

Short Story: might have news; no annoucement yet since I try not to tell the internet things that aren't absolutely certain for sure.  But maybe news!  Soon!

I still owe you feedback on Skywatch. I was waiting until I heard more about your computer situation before I sent it. Since you're using your work computer, I guess it's OK to send it?

That would be great! I unfortunately didn't get everything off the laptop (though I'm working on it) but I do have updated, working backup copies of all my novels.

Good luck with Something There Is! I'm sorry I didn't manage to get my edits back to you in time.
